Although, I have a hard time NOT forgiving him since he was a dreamboat as Laurie in "Little Women".<br />2) I have already seen "Black Swan" + "True Grit" + "The Kids Are Alright". I need to see "The King's Speech" PRONTO. Also, "Winter's Bone" is next on my Netflix queue.<br />3) Oooh. "The Fighter". Gotta see that, too. You should totally see "The Kids Are Alright".<br />4) I have to say... I don't know. I need to see all of them first. Although, I REALLY don't want to watch "The Social Network". Sigh.<br />5) Helena Bonham Carter can do whatever the fuck she wants, Golden Globes or not.<br />6) Is it your husband that you're trying to trick? Tell him you are watching something else + put it in the DVD player. Or tell him it is full of lesbian sex.Naurnienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3134668.post-70614803455903417162011-01-25T11:23:55.000-08:002011-01-25T11:23:55.000-08:0002 I'm not one of those, but: The King's S...02 I'm not one of those, but: The King's Speech, The Kids Are All Right<br />03 Adam's Rib<br />04 I'm just here for the red carpet, man<br />05 See above<br />06 CatnipAmandanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3134668.post-30283242484624209782011-01-25T11:30:31.000-08:002011-01-25T11:30:31.000-08:00did i mention how i was singing a belly song* the ...did i mention how i was singing a belly song* the other night and steve started attacking me? i am in a house of LADY-HATERS<br /><br />*"the bees," which is a SUPER-LOVELY SONGkidchampnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3134668.post-89160440136294473532011-01-25T11:30:44.000-08:002011-01-25T11:30:44.000-08:00winter's bone is so good, and so intense - i j...<i>winter's bone</i> is so good, and so intense - i jumped up and covered my mouth in shock at one point. you're going to <i>love </i>the music.<br /><br />i'm not especially excited about seeing <i>the social network</i> either, which...is weird, given that i usually lo-ove david fincher, am at least amused by aaron sorkin, and am curious to compare these harvard types to my peeps.
