I'm not going to disagree.
edit: In response to Kat.
She's terse. I can be terse. Once in flight school, I was laconic.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
It would have been better if Halle had introduced Lena first, and then they used a song of hers over the montage.
Amy, I agree with this.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Well, it's no HOOKERS AND BLOW, for sure.
Clearly that's what I was hoping for.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
King's Speech won, quester.
Blackhearted British journalists validate me. From the Guardian liveblog:
***********
And with that the curtain comes down on the 83rd Academy Awards. Playing us out is a troupe of grinning little Hollywood munchkins who may conceivably be children. They are singing Somewhere Over the Rainbow. Their eyes are alight and they are singing, singing as the curtain comes down. They shall sing forever, never pausing for breath until the lights go out and the carpet catches fire and Kirk Douglas orders them, for the love of God and in the name of all that is holy, to stop.
Stop.
Stop!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Did Natalie Portman neglect to thank Mila Kunis in her acceptance speech?
