Yeah I think Downey's gonna get it based on that as well. I rather liked Downey in Tropic Thunder, but considering that the voting pool is made up of over 1200 actors, I think he was nominated for everything he's done since Weird Science. Well, okay, maybe Heart and Soul. On

I've seen it. It was filmed locally so I am biased: I loved the film, but it doesn't touch the heart as Slumdog Millionaire does. Some of the themes in BB are repeated more than once, but perhaps that is necessary for american viewers. (At least Hollywood thinks so). Even though some

You really think they're rewarding him for past performances, given that most of those were pre-burnout? Also, why cringe inducing? The racial aspect? Finally, this idea of combining comedic and dramatic performances in one award never made sense to me. The whole acting process is split broadly

I guess that star power wins out. Like I said, i was appalled to see a local entertainment show where the anchors went on and on about Brad and Angelina, etc., and completely ignored Melissa Leo, to the point of not even reading her name as one of the nominees. -- Original

I have it on the downstairs TV, but not on the upstairs one. (Trying to save a bit of dough during these times, you know?) I cut back on my Comcast service a few years ago, eliminating all the premium channels and going down to basic (no higher than SpikeTV). Added a few back so my wife could

Yeah, I'll check out Scifi as well, though i guess I have to use up more VCR tape space. Between the SciFi stuff, X-Men on NickToons, and Batman/Secret Saturdays/Clone Wars/Ben 10 on Cartoon Network, I'm actually finding too many shows to watch on a Friday night! -- Original
