Heart of the City by Steenz for February 21, 2011

Dean doesn’t pay attention to anything below the galactic level.

You wouldn’t believe the looks I got when asked “Who won?” the next day.

ha ha rayannina, how true.

Who won? Green Bay. Enough said.

I’m surprised Dean didn’t say, “What’s the Super Bowl???”

Darkeforce: “I’ll tell you who lost, though; the people who spent way too much money for tickets to see it!”

They probably don’t feel that way. But those 200 or so people who payed the money and didn’t get to see it, that’s a shame.

I don’t much care about the Super Bowl, but I don’t begrudge the enjoyment thereof to others. This Sunday is MY “Super Bowl”: OSCAR NIGHT! And for anybody who cares little or nothing for that, nobody’s forcing you to watch THAT either. Your complaints will fall on deaf ears…

Kudos to him for being unaware. the blitz is maddening, but even without tv, i admit i heard abou bleeep

This year I’ve seen just about everything nominated. All 10 Best Pictures, all five Best Actor nominees (I had to catch up with Javier Bardem after the nominations, since “Biyutiful” hadn’t yet opened here), all the Best Actresses, the Supporting Actors and Actresses, the Directors, the Screenplays, Animated Features, and yesterday I saw a program of the Animated Shorts. It’s a good field this year; nothing’s a lock except Colin Firth, and there’s nothing I’m particularly rooting for or against.

Actually, that last sentence isn’t quite true - I’m rooting against “Toy Story 3” for Best Animated Feature (it’s probably futile), because the other two nominees are equally worthy, and there’s danger of Pixar getting cocky and/or complacent. And if “Inception” had any chance of taking Best Picture, I’d be rooting against it; I don’t think it was a BAD movie, but it’s the most overrated movie of the year.

A LONG TIME AGO IN A STADIUM FAR, FAR, AWAY….

Out of sight, out of mind.
