LYC- I slept on my right side last night and now my right knee hurts. I normally sleep on my back. -- nm - lileve Dec 11, 06:33 2

LIR: I would like to own a Advertising/Marketing/PR firm. -- nm - lileve Dec 11, 06:20 4
- Sterling Cooper, perhaps? -- nm - Don Homer Dec 11, 06:20 3
  - Hehe. Something small like that where every employee knows the owner, yes. That time period, hell no. I can't draw for crap. -- nm - lileve Dec 11, 06:29 2
    - You wouldn't have to draw - you'd just drink all day and tell the art department to draw. -- nm - Cuzzin the Red Nosed Todd Dec 11, 06:30 1
      - Hehe, yes. -- nm - lileve Dec 11, 06:31

  - I watched The Dark Knight last night. Decent movie, but I'll *never* understand the uber-love for it. - Don Homer Dec 11, 06:17 15
    - I will go as far as saying it is the best comic hero movie.. But, in spite of being a strong believer that "genre" movies can be great - Marlowe Dec 11, 06:31
    - Engaging plot, great characters, great acting, great action scenes and dialog. I don't "uber-love" it, but it's a great movie. -- nm - JaxSean Dec 11, 06:30 2
      - Plot? -- nm - Cuzzin the Red Nosed Todd Dec 11, 06:31 1
        
        Wayne's struggle between thin line of vigalante and hero is engaging. -- nm - JaxSean Dec 11, 06:36
    - I really liked it, but it went about 20 minutes too long. -- nm - Inigo Dec 11, 06:20 1

    - Yep. -- nm - Diva Dec 11, 06:19
    - Simply put - Heath Ledger's superb performance coupled with his death is the key to it's uber-success. -- nm - Cuzzin the Red Nosed Todd Dec 11, 06:19 6
      - Batman vs. Joker at the top of their is the key to its success. That's why Batman (1989) was a blockbuster. -- nm - Inigo Dec 11, 06:21 4
        
        Exact same movie with ledger still alive, less $$$. It's that simple IMO. I know quite a few people who wouldn't have seen it otherwise. - Cuzzin the Red Nosed Todd Dec 11, 06:27 1
        
        Adjusted for inflation, Tim Burton's Batman made $450 million. - Inigo Dec 11, 06:31

        Batman vs Joker at the top of their is the key to its success. that's why Batman (1989) was a blockbuster. Is it a Person? - Will Hunting Dec 11, 06:23
      - yup. not to take anything away from his incredible performance, but if he were still alive it wouldn't be getting nearly the play it is currently -- nm - znufrii Dec 11, 06:21

- No Wall-E for Best Picture makes TFox something something. - TFox Dec 11, 06:00 19
  - Once you create an "animated" catagory it's all over for Best Picture for toons. -- nm - Amy Dec 11, 06:17 1
    - I disagree. It'll happen eventually. It'll have to be a major hit, critically lauded, and in a down year for other movies though. -- nm - Don Homer Dec 11, 06:19
  - [deleted] 3
    - Eh. Some foreign movies have been honored with Best Pic and Best Director (and other categories) nominations. -- nm - Don Homer Dec 11, 06:18 2
      - [deleted] 1
        
        Well, don't get me wrong; I have mixed feeling about the existence of the animated category. Something will break through eventually, and then it - Don Homer Dec 11, 06:27
  - Yeah, that the GG guys are a stupid bunch, that much we knew.. - Marlowe Dec 11, 06:04 11

        I teared up a little. My friend John bawled. -- nm - Diva Dec 11, 06:26
        
        "Kitty!" must be the best closing line of the story of cinema.. (NM) - Marlowe Dec 11, 06:19
        
        Oh, WALL-E made me cry. Twice, I think. -- nm - Callisto Dec 11, 06:16 2
        
        (Bolt made me cry, too.) -- nm - Callisto Dec 11, 06:17 1
        
        I cried on both WALL-E and Bolt as well. -- nm - Diva Dec 11, 06:20
