    Picture: The Hurt Locker
    Director: Kathryn Bigelow
    Actor: Jeremy Renner
    Actress: Sandra Bullock
    Supporting Actor: Woody Harrelson
    Supporting Actress: Anna Kendrick

      You must have been reading my mind, Tex. That list is pretty much how I see it, too, but with one exception. I own Hurt Locker and know how good Renner is, and even though I've only seen a few scenes from Crazy Heart, I just have this gut feeling that Jeff Bridges may get best actor

          My wife & I are going to an Oscar party tonight.
          Everyone gets a ballot and throws $10 into the pot.

          My wife’s picks:
          Movie: Avatar
          Actor: Jeff Bridges
          Actress: Sandra Bullock
          Supporting Actor: Christoph Waltz
          Supporting Actress: Mo’nique
          Foreign Film: The White Ribbon
          Song: Loin de Paname’
          Tie Breaker – Time that credits begin to roll: 11:33


          My Picks:
          Movie: Hurt Locker
          Actor: Jeremy Renner
          Actress: Sandra Bullock
          Supporting Actor: Christopher Plummer
          Supporting Actress: Mo’nique
          Foreign Film: Ajami
          Song: The Weary Kind
          Tie Breaker – Time that credits begin to roll: 11:27

          These are our predictions, not necessarily our actual favorites.

              Didn't catch all of it, but I did see that Kathryn Bigelow got director, Hurt Locker got best picture and Sandra Bullock got best actress.

              I'll see if I can find a comprehensive list. Back shortly....

                      And I pretty much agree with the results. I did think that Avatar would take more Oscars, though.

                          Okay, I thought I'd start up this game on the forum that we could play to keep each other deep in thought. For those who haven't heard of the game, it's based on the premise that you can link ANY movie actor of a reasonable recent era to Kevin Bacon through a maximum of 6 common movies with other actors....

                          Do you ever see something on the web and right away, your first reaction is "I gotta have one, muy pronto!"


                          For whatever reasons, the new Denafrips Avatar CD transport struck that chord for me.

                          As an aside, how many of you knew that in 2019 vinyl outsold...

                          Hi, I am having trouble getting my avatar to a proper size (too small).

                          I am no computer whiz so please take it slow if explaining things.
