Djimon Hounsou

Good young black actors keep coming. In addition to Don Cheadle and Andre Braugher, it's worth keeping an eye on Djimon Hounsou. He's bee in Gladiator, Constantine and other things. He and Peter Stormare delivered the best performances in Constantine. Here's a pic of Hounsou.

I haven't seen the movie b/c I've read so much about the genocide that I'm worried the movie will show it as less horrific than it was. The best book I've ever read was: We Wish to Inform You That Tomorrow We Will be Killed With Our Families: Stories from Rwanda Not a happy book but astonishing. That not many people know what occurred there is very telling. A massacre of Swedes against one another would have generated much more interest among Americans.

Marty snubbed, yet again.

The anti-NY bias continues and Scorsese remains - along with Hitchcock, Kurosawa, Renoir, Kubrick and Truffaut - TOO WORTHY to win an Oscar.

A fucking joke.

She's a no-talent lollipop head, and now we know that she's also a fashion disaster. The Renemperor has no clothes. But how about that Halle! And that Selma! And the bimbo (wife?) they kept panning to when the guy got the lifetime achievement award? Hummuna hummuna.

You know, every time you post this kind of crap I think to myself "What would we do with out Skeks in the city?" and then I think "Oh, yeah. We'd still have NFH."

Cheney Out

Did anyone see the St. Joe's game in question? The hatchet man was so terrible just putting him in the game is grounds for suspension? Was he on the roster all year? Were all 5 fouls monster fouls and dirty? Was the player kicked off the team?

thurgreed, when we play, can I bring him as my second?

Information, please

If anyone knows, could they please tell me a good place to get Irish Coffee in NYC? I don't drink it, but this information is valuable to me.

And oh yes - apparently I was on CNN! Just in the background, stretching or something. go me.

Yes -- I wait with bated breath so I can make my wardrobe (malfunction) decisions in a smart way.

I hope you're joking. The directing in MDB was miles above Aviator...of course, the script was too, and that may have been part of it. Aviator was the worst movie I saw this year, and I saw the Wedding Date. There was absolutely no plot development and I left that film knowing nothing more about Hughes than I knew going in...it just skimmed the surface of a chunk of his life. It was pathetic. All glitz and no substance. And whatsherface from Sideways shoudl have won for best supporting actress. Kate Blanchett's award was just a pity award for snubbing Aviator for all the other biggies...of all the biggies it was nominated for, Kate was arguably the closest to a legitimate contender. Bleck

Excuse me, but "proactive" and "paradigm"? Aren't these just buzzwords that dumb people use to sound important? Not that I'm accusing you of anything like that.

I don't like LL's dress at all -- horrible color on her and doesn't seem to fit. Renee Zellweger is really not attractive. Her eyes are way too small and she just looks alienesque.
