Spotlight was pretty damn good.

It's probably at the bottom of my Oscars list, but still a really good movie. Worth a watch.

I couldn't even make it through 30 minutes of that Mad Max movie and it's winnign everything. I actually paid for it and shut it off. Terrible movie.

Oscars are bull [expletive].

Watching some TCM recordings- re watched "the Third Man" still enjoyed it. Probably even more than 1st time.

Also, First watch of "Guess who's coming to Dinner". kitschy and overplayed (the daughter -oi) but still great. the classic artsy use of color and set-that is what makes old movies great. Hell of a role for Spencer Tracy. Sidney Poitier chewing his pop out was pretty good.

The whole theme of the last night Oscars was insufferable.

I was excited to watch Steve Jobs yesterday and wasn't impressed. It was lauded based on its three scene premise of having conversations with all the influential people in his life before his major launches, but I found it disjointed and unrealistic.

They need to get rid of the bull [expletive] categories like short adapted silent film foreign documentary and crap like that. Who the [expletive] cares?

Not sure if anyone else noticed this, probably not which is why i'm bringing it up ... I was watching last night and it kind of occurred to me at some point that there was not one black person nominated for anything. I can't believe this wasn't brought up already, but just something I noticed. I wonder if they will be tweeting about that and stuff?

A few parts were predictible, but thought this was done pretty well! I'd recommend it.
