King Kong got robbed, man!

You've got to have some pretty big grapes to deny a giant ape his little golden statue. So, the Oscars have come and gone again, and I have to say, I'm pretty pleased. This year's awards were given to relatively small movies, with relatively small audiences, with huge subjects. The beauty and heartache of socially unacceptable love, racism in today's world, the fight for freedom of speech and the press, and assassination as a duty sent from God. As I expected, none of the actors in King Kong got anything, although they won for sound and visual affects. people don't seem to understand, THERE WAS NOTHING THERE!!! Philip Hoffman does a funny voice for three hours, Reese Witherspoon plays a down south girl with razor wit and devilish charm(oh wait, she IS a down south girl with razor wit and devilish charm) and they walk away winners. Naomi Watts is terrified of nothing, befriends nothing, makes nothing fall in love with her, and winds up killing nothing, and we all thought there was something there!!! Not to mention Andy Serkis, who lived with gorillas for months and brought Kong's moves and voice to life. Anyway, I'm glad that nothing went to the number one movie of the year: Dukes of Hazard. All in all a good night.

The Lost party is continuing, one more four episode DVD to go. It's wedding season and I've got four in the next four weekends. Everything else is going great.

Talk atcha later, Brad
