Scrappy's friend got a nom for Lars and the Real Girl.

Yay! I really liked that film.

It's cracking me up that several of the songs from Enchanted were nominated. They're supposed to be parodies! And I'm a little sad that the song at the end of Juno wasn't nominated.

um...guess that should be in movies. oh well!

It's got to be a best original song composed for the movie, right? That song wasn't new.

OMG. O.M.G. ::facepalm,headdesk,headdesk,headdesk::

ouch.

Yay, "Falling Slowly" from Once was nominated. I love that movie.

Yay!

Especially since your IRL name is also a name in Hebrew (unlike, say, Frank or Jesse, just to name a couple of the posters above us), I'm glad it was clear who is who.

Are you okay there, Sox?

Slips a pillow under Sox's head to minimize damage.

I finally sent off a sample chapter to my agent. I didn't even send it for beta, it's so crappy.

Oh, I loved "Enchanted". Enough to throw some large paragraphs at it, even, I guess [Edit: if I ever manage to find my way to the movies thread. Hmm].

And part of the charm of the songs was, for me, that while they were parodies, they did actually work "for real" - they laughed at themselves while still being that selves, at the same time. Fun.

Oh, that's true.

I loved it too! It's just funny to me and, I'm sure, to the song writers! (Hi, Nilly!!! I was had dinner with EpicTangent last night and she was saying how sad she was still that she didn't get to meet you when you were here.)
