Anybody check out this music video for 'The Shoes' a french band I believe stars Jake Gyllenhaal.  A little dark, but interesting, always a fan of Jake!  Amazing what he can accomplish even with no dialogue!

Awesome Mel!  I'll read it. I'm still working through 'The Passage,' by Justin Cronin, its also amazing, but just taking me a while to read.  I'm a slow reader and its about 700 pages!  but i highly recommend it - its a vampire/post apocalypse book.  Really amazing, quite a ride.

Ooh Mary Steenburgen on 30 Rock!  She's  so awesome

Glad to hear you had a good spring break with your kids!  We just started ours.  Still a little sick from my sinus infection.  However, I just watched Bourne Ultimatum for the first time and had such a fun time watching it I went back and rented the first two plus star trek. Hoping that will cure my upper respiratory infection.  I swear I'm keeping that video store in business.  Since I got this a week ago I've rented 8  movies total.  This junk just won't go away as fast as I want it to

my sinus infection turned into an upper respiratory infection. tired of coughing, literally had no voice today, had to come home.  So close to spring break i was hoping to power through.  Hope this goes away fast! I had this junk for a month last year!!! I need to move to the driest place in the world.

I did watch Blue Valentine.  Your review is actually accurate Deb. There were some really disturbing scenes that I had to fastfoward through to be honest, but it didn't take away from the movie, so i'm wondering if they were even necessary or not.  But it was beautifully acted by Michelle and Ryan, music by Grizzly Bear is really great and suits the movie well, and directing is wonderful.  Just be prepared for the emotional ride as you said

Thanks for the pictures Deb!!!  Hopefully we can get some new Chris photos soon if he gets some movies out!

That is sad.  Jan Berenstain passed away too   Love her books.  As a child and as a teacher.

Thank you.... I did alright. I feel like I did better last time, but you know I do my best!  Or at least I tell myself that!

Aww, went to bed early...   Long day today.

Here is the full list of  winners:
http://www.imdb.com/oscars/nominations/

I was kind of surprised and not surprised to see the artist won.  I was anticipating the descendants because I heard that was a better movie.  Do you think it got dibs because it was "silent" (different) and international?  My parents saw it and enjoyed it, I just couldn't help but think deep down that it kept getting such critical claim because it was silent.  I haven't seen it though so I guess I shouldn't judge a book by its cover.  Just saying, a little surprised it won straight through.

Interesting year for the movies, none of them were actually my favorite.  It think my favorite movies of the year were 'Take Shelter' and 'Drive.'  I also of course enjoyed 'Planet of the Apes.'

I know!  So far blah, but excited for Octavia Spencer and Girl with a Dragan Tatoo Sound editing.

I agree it is sad about Whitney.
It's been quiet around here.  Hope everyone is doing alright.
I want it to be 10:00 Friday and not 10:00 Saturday.  Grr...
