Oh man, my LoVe feelings were so enormous.

This is pretty funny:

Has anyone else seen Sister Mary Explains It All? I saw it over the weekend, and I still can't get it out of my mind.

We start (briefly) in 1959, as the 3rd grade class of Sister Mary Ignatius at Our Lady of Perpetual Sorrows performs a Christmas pageant written by one of the students. Within 5 minutes, we've flashed forward 25 years. Sister Mary Ignatius (Diane Keaton) has invited her students to perform a 25th-anniversary performance of the old pageant. 4 of the students have agreed, but they're late arriving because of a minor car crash.

At gatherings like this, Sister Mary Ignatius takes questions from the audience. Most of these questions ask her to discuss Catholic doctrine. We soon learn that Sister Mary Ignatius has a traditional view of morality, especially sexual morality. She also has her current favorite student, Thomas, assist her -- largely by reciting catechism.

The 4 former students show up to perform the pageant, and the plot takes a not unpredictable turn. Conflict results, and then the plot takes a screaming 120-degree turn to the completely (to me, anyway) unexpected.

Excellently done, but I imagine that anyone that went to a Catholic (or possibly other religious) school at an early age could identify more closely with the characters and issues. But I felt it enough that I still can't get it out of my head. To a large degree, it's Keaton's show, and it's easy to believe Sister Mary Ignatius's development over the course of the film.

This is pretty funny

The Morrissey score is brilliant!

Wait, what?

My fave line from the article, so far...

And that brings me to my main reason Equals might not be as bad as you think it will be: Nothing could possibly suck that much.

Wait, maybe this one:

My original title for this article was “Is A Romantic 1984 Remake With Kristen Stewart and Nicholas Hoult Better Or Worse Than Rats Eating Your Face?”

I didn't realize Oscar noms were announced yesterday: [link]

Some interesting omissions, as mentioned. The Robert Redfort snub in particular was a shock. I've only seen three of the Best Picture noms (12 Years a Slave, Her, and Gravity). I may try to see a couple more this weekend.

Hey, did we know that they recast Sheriff Lamb for the Veronica Mars movie? Is it because Michael Muhney is an asshole, I wonder?

Sheriff Lamb gets killed off in the series. Mars, Bars in season 3.

I missed some of S3, and I just started rewatching tonight. I was looking at the cast credits on IMdB and at the cast list for the movie, to see who comes back, and it said Jerry O'Connell is playing Sheriff Don Lamb.

The reason I mentioned it is because I saw something about Muhney getting fired from a soap he's on or something, for sexual harrassment, and I seem to remember him being skeevy with fans or something back when he was on the show. P-C will know.

I thought they said Jerry O'Connell is playing Lamb's brother. I vaguely remember this from a video that was part of the Kickstarter thing.
