I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, good god, Sting. No. Just no.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

How long ago was it that Victor witnessed Leo and his entourage being entitled jackasses in public?

Admittedly, a second-hand story, but one I have no reason to doubt. (The person who told it to me is honest to a fault.)

I'm pleased for Mickey Rourke. Everyone I know who's actually seen "The Wrestler" says he's brilliant in it.

Must see "Slumdog Millionaire." I'm terribly fascinated by this film.

Because books.

I've always felt sorry for Mickey Rourke. I think he was an amazing talent, and he's still talented, but he's also an object lesson in drugs, alcohol, excess, and, well, really bad plastic surgery. Still, quite a character. Surprises are always fun, though.

Leo finally looks grownup to me. I wasn't sure that would ever happen.

“Not dead yet!”

Oy, now I'm feeling like a cranky, judgmental nun. Sorry, y'all.

Why? I mean, I'd love to see Leo win something, too, but seeing Mickey Rourke was just fun. And I think Oscar voters and GG voters are sometimes a little different.

I can't wait to see Revolutionary Road.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Johnny Depp doesn't look like he showered that much more recently than Colin Farrell. But they're both hella cute.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Mmm, now I want another drink. It does go with the GGs.

an object lesson for sexy but sloppy actors, like CF. There is the result of a slippery grooming slope.

ha ha ha! I hate to laugh, but it is SO TRUE.

I'm watching on time delay, so I'm just now seeing young Kirk and Spock and all I can say is that movie is only going to fuel the slash.

There are a lot of people in fandom who are waiting for the day that people see the new Trek movie and then decide they've invented Kirk/Spock slash.

And then they plan to laugh.

I can't wait to see Revolutionary Road.

Me neither, although I've read the book and it's absolutely GUTTING.

And yeah, I totally hear you on the differences inherent in GG voters vs. Oscar voters. I mean, the fact that they serve copious amounts of alcohol at the GGs should be the first clue, right?

The two of them were very cute together.

I still cried over Heath even though I knew it was coming.
