Where is everyone? It's been so slow here lately. Are you out there?!!! :)

I'll have to admit, I was concerned about the nightmare issue - we sat

and talked about everything after the movie, but I wouldn't have been surprised if he awoke later in the night with a bad dream.

To this day, when I hear that sounds the flying monkeys make "Oh-Eee Oh, OHHHH - Oh" is still gives me the creeps!

Do they still air it annually on television? (I rarely watch TV anymore, except for Law & Order in re-runs on TNT). DH and I were trying to remember when it was, I thought around Thanksgiving/Fall, but he thought Easter/Spring.

 
I almost stayed awake for the whole thing. Who tripped?...

I fell asleep but woke up right before the end (best picture).

I hear someone tripped or fell? I missed that, or was it Jennifer Garner just kind of stumbling on her way to the microphone? I saw that, didn't think twice about it. Well, I guess I must've, I remembered it! lol

 
Maybe cause it ended soooooo early... Teddy told me it was over>>

by 11:30, aaaaand, also, I was delighted that Crash won... We saw Brokeback Mt...found it unintelligible for the first 45 minutes, and draggy (no pun intended) for the balance, and thought the nomination was strictly because of the controversial love affair. Crash was certainly a much more important subject with which to deal, in contemporary times, IMHO., smileys/smile.gif

 
Oh Lisa, that sounds like so much fun! Cute ideas!

We ran out and saw "Walk the Line" on Saturday - loved it!

 
I'm always disappointed that certain films don't get nominated, like Good Night and Good Luck -

I thought that was a fabulously done film, and David Strathairn as Murrow was wonderful and deserving of a nomination.

 
Yep, she did a little shuffle/slip and recover. The kind that just...

makes me put something "out" now at my age. She carried on beautifully.

 
Lisa, I agree - as a matter of fact, I think the special effects were better then, at least

in the Wizard of Oz and some other movies of that era - they did a lot more with a lot less. Today, the computerization makes things look stiff and unbelievable to me. Also, the make-up and costumes in the Wizard of Oz cannot be rivaled.

 
I sat through the awards without having seen any of the five BP nominees,

so feeling left out, I saw Brokeback Mt. this afternoon. I can't remember when I've found a film so moving. All I can say is, "Crash" had better be REEEALLY good. (I've heard that it is.)

 
Lisa -Good Night and Good Luck was up for Best Pix

of course it didn't win. The only movie of the bunch I hadn't seen was of course the winner: Crash, but it's out on DVD... and I agree GN&GL was a wonderful movie!

And he was also up for Best Actor in a Leading Role.

Here is a link that will tell you the major noms and winners.

Joe, that's when you go "haven't seen it" like Bill Murry used to do on SNL...

when he did his Oscar pixs - he only chose the ones he'd seen. It was a hoot!

 
LOL, or his movie reviews of movies he'd missed because "my date was drunk." I loved it.

 
Joe, I really should have mentioned that Brokeback WAS a

beautifully, heartwrenching love story, albeit very slow moving.

 
Well, you force me into a cataclysmic decision....

Ohhh -- you cursed brat! Look what you've
done! I'm melting! Melting! Oh -- what a
world -- what a world! Who would have
thought a good little girl from Philadelphia could destroy my beautiful wickedness!? Ohhh!
Look out! Look out! I'm going. Ohhhh! Ohhhhhh....
