I've been away for so long, that I know it's going to take me forever to play catch up. I just wanted to add my 2 cents worth that I really don't like the fact they keep changing the dates and moving the ceremony up now over a month from when it used to be.
I've heard a couple of rumor mills going around that SAG will strike this year and according to TMZ they won't strike because of last year's Writers Strike, the poor economy that they absolutely won't put anyone through it. I would like to think the latter would be the correct rumor.
I'm so glad I don't have to worry about looking for that next gig anymore. Those strikes literally kill the little guy (like me).
I haven't seen any of the contenders yet - however, I find it interesting that my long asked question has been put into movie format:
I always wondered why we didn't come into this life old and end it being very young and wise and know what to do with this amazing gift. Guess I have to see the movie to see if my crazy thoughts make sense.

Comment by Cheryl Bailey on December 19, 2008 at 11:36am - So far it looks like most of the Oscar contenders have not come out here yet but am looking forward to seeing many of them shortly. I really enjoyed the cinematography in Australia but I do not think it is probably a serious contender.
