George Washington Slept Here is on this morning on TCM. I love this movie. It cracks me up. Too bad it's not available on DVD. I'd watch it over and over. I find it to be funnier than Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House. It's interesting that there are a lot of similarities between the two movies.

Wonderful, awesome cast. Movie is not so great. But it does break my heart to say so, I mean it does have Rita Hayworth, Gene Kelly, Phil Silvers and Eve Arden in it. But still it's dull dull dull.

I will watch Eve Arden in anything. She always brightens the picture with her ability to quip. Otherwise, I'd agree with you, Rita is gorgeous but the movie has no magic.

Same here. I love Eve Arden.

Danny Boyle deserved an Oscar for Trainspotting. I love that film.

What the hell?

I've seen three of the best picture nominees. (Avatar, Bastards and District 9).

What is up with that? Are the Oscars trying to go main stream? Targeting a lower class of viewer?

Weird.

After this weekend I will have seen six (already seen Hurt Locker, District 9, Up, and Up in the Air, Inglorious Basterds is next in the Netflix queue, and we're going to try to see Avatar this weekend.) That'll even make 4 of 5 director nods.

I've seen nine of the ten, the only one I've missed is An Education. All five for director. 3 of 5 for actor. 3 of 5 for actress. 1 of 5 for supporting actor. 3 of 5 for supporting actress. 8 of the 10 screenplay nominations.

Oddly, the nominee list at Oscar.com seems to be broken, listing only the first four nominees in many categories (At first I thought they'd trimmed the acting noms to four and I hadn't heard).
