Re: Eric Carmen dead at 74

I guess I am wired in a special way because I can't think of any circumstance where knowing "the truth" about a singer would cause me to like a song less.

Re: The Gentlemen (Netflix) - based on the Guy Ritchie film - premieres 3/7/24

I wish this thread had more pictures.

I'm really not a Guy Ritchie fan, but I got completely sucked into this today and watched 3 episodes (with captions). :thumbsup:

Re: The 96th Academy Awards --> 2024 Oscar Awards Show Discussion

Re: The 96th Academy Awards --> 2024 Oscar Awards Show Discussion

My point was not that Bruce Willis deserved the honor more than Jackson. My point was that they give them out to acknowledge a lifetime achievement in the industry. I don't view Willis and Jackson as...

Re: The 96th Academy Awards --> 2024 Oscar Awards Show Discussion

Why?

An honorary Oscar can be awarded just for contributing significantly to the film industry, like by being a huge star that makes movies people love.

Maybe you missed the previous post...

Paul Newman received an honorary Oscar after seven nominations and no wins, and then won the best actor award the next year, and continued acting and receiving nominations for twenty more years.

When they finally get around to making the film version of the musical Sunset Boulevard starring Close, she will either win the Oscar or get an honorary one the next year.

Re: The 96th Academy Awards --> 2024 Oscar Awards Show Discussion

It's understand the point you think you are making with your reply, but it is pure nonsense.

I obviously did not state or imply that they ONLY give honorary Oscars to Black actors.

Re: The Royal Hotel (2023, D. K. Green) S: Julia Garner, Jessica Henwick

I don't have Hulu anymore, but Julia Garner is an actress whose involvement automatically makes me interested in a movie. I think she's great.

Re: The 96th Academy Awards --> 2024 Oscar Awards Show Discussion

In all candor, the answer to your question is that she is Black.

Angela Bassett is an outstanding and respected actor with a long career, but no Oscar wins, which is a description that can be...

Re: What "The Punisher" movie is my sister referring to in her 1988 journal?

Damn, I thought I was going to be really clever and be the first person in 30 posts to suggest it was an anal fisting porn. -other-

Re: The 96th Academy Awards --> 2024 Oscar Awards Show Discussion

Thank you for that. I read that article and the oral history linked within it.

My takeaway is that the awful thing HW did with the SIL campaign was actually campaign. He spent money to set up...

Re: The 96th Academy Awards --> 2024 Oscar Awards Show Discussion

Well, I know that HW made a big push campaigning for SIL, but I would need to know the details of what was devious.

I mean, ultimately, each ballot has to be filled out by someone, and more of...

Well, if you like The Crown, it's like that. Entertaining and interesting, a glimpse into history, very well acted. Solid, stately mainstream movie-making with that gloss of high brow.

Re: The Rookie (ABC) — Season 6 — 2/20/24

That's the explanation, but I still think it is a bad idea for ABC (or NBC) to go this way. It would have been better to delay the start a few more weeks, so that they could go with no reruns, and...
