Just popping by to say that the Oscars are doing preferential voting this year:
But what may affect who takes home the statuette is the new and complicated voting procedure instituted to deal with the extra nominees. Instead of simply listing a single top film, the Academy’s roughly 6,000 members are now required to rank them in order of preference; a result is that a film that heavily figures in the No. 2 or No. 3 spots might best one with a sprinkling of votes in No. 1 — and conversely, it means that it’s important for a film to be picked for No. 2 and No. 3. (That is, unless a film has 50 percent plus 1 of the No. 1 votes, which constitutes a winning majority.)
Does this mean Australia has won?
I'm currently trying to instigate a minor fight that pretty clearly says I don't think someone else is doing their job right. We'll see how that goes.
Does this mean Australia has won?
Australia was released in 2008, not 2009. It wasn't a very good movie, and didn't win any Oscars. It did get a nomination for costume design, though.
Tom is funny.
I want this house: [link]
Snowpocalypsegeddon is well underway here in C'ville. I'm going back to bed to hibernate.
I am officially off the clock now.
Only an inch out there so far (I so coulda gone to work!) but it is a heavy wet inch.
Oooh, I like that house, too, msbelle.
Yeah, the snow this go 'round is different. Last time, I was light and dry, good for skiing and sledding. this is the wet stuff, good for snowballs and snowpeople.
I am extremely amused, I just saw the actor who plays Lem playing a small time criminal on Law and Order. I'm just not seeing the Thug Life :)
