Same difference, Ruthie.
I always tell them to join the queue like everyone else and take their turn….
There was a cute one of Avis trying to get in line in place of Ruthie's grandma.
Not to try at home in France, nearly 70% of us have an 'actual career' as well as professional mother and caretaker. That lady witch would end up with her broom in a painful place.
Go, Ruthie, Go!
I actually applauded that. Very good response Ruthie!
On the flip side, there's nothing that restores my faith in humanity more than the person who says, "You only have one item, go ahead of me".
Seen people like that trying to get on South West Airlines ahead of their seating number. God I love the look on their face when they are sent back to wait their turn. I mean doesn't the world know how important they are? Yeah right.
I often do that in the store – let somebody with only one item go ahead of me, but not if they're rude about asking. I'd have cut her off with the cart and told her what she could do with that bottle of vodka. On the flip side, I also get rather annoyed with people who get it the express lane with full carts of groceries, or get in the express line and then want to buy cigarettes or lottery tickets or something else that requires the clerk to leave the checkstand. If I managed a store, the express lines would not sell lottery tickets or cigarette. Those bozos would have to go get in the regular line – and the checkers would not be allowed to answer a telephone if they were already waiting on a customer!
What I hate is when a cashier will tell you "You have more than X items but I'll ring you up over here" (in the X items or less lane) and then someone gets behind and makes a comment.
Such presumption! Ellen already has some of her items on the belt, and is a business owner!
… anyway, I think it's rude to ask. Always thankful when someone offers, tho. And I try to offer when possible.
Nobody cuts in front of me. I must have that crazy-eyed look. But if they did, I would love it. I would taunt them mercilessly. "What's it like, being so much more important than the rest of us? I bet you drive an important car, too. Should I let you cut in front of me in traffic too? Your boss says pick up his dry cleaning while you're out." etc.
It never ceases to amaze me at how so many people have a sense of entitlement and self-importance. They seem to presume that everyone else must be subservient .
I like to wear my T-shirt that says: WARNING ! Sarcasm is only the First weapon in my arsenal.
They both got her right on the money!
She was only one letter off… b, not w.

This event pays homage to the cultures of Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden and Iceland. Folk dancers travel from all over the Pacific Northwest to perform and teach traditional dances to enthusiastic visitors.
Junction City is located in Willamette Valley, the agricultural heart of Oregon where family farms grow everything from blueberries and hazelnuts to Christmas trees and tulips and some of the world's best pinot noir.

Holocaust Remembrance Day or Yom Hashoah began last night. Here in Israel, we observed two minutes standing in silence at 10AM. As I've mentioned on here before, it's a surreal experience.
This should give you an idea (footage taken from this morning)
Thankfully, that's not footage taken from here.
This year, Yad VaShem hosted a competition for artists to design posters that captured the essence of Yom HaShoah. The winning poster was the below, created by Doriel Rimmer.
You can see some of the other entries here.
Meanwhile, here's a contribution from my son.

Hall and Oates honored heroes on Live Aid's worldwide stage: 'We really did come full circle'
Live Aid, held on July 13, 1985, was more than a great cause for Hall and Oates. It was, as John Oates tells us, a chance to "come full circle."
Live Aid, held on July 13, 1985, was more than a great cause for Hall and Oates. It was, as John Oates tells us, a chance to "come full circle."
It had been 35 years since I'd seen the quintessential prog-rockers Yes, led by the recently departed Chris Squire. They didn't disappoint.
His shows with Graham Nash and Stephen Stills are where the money is. But David Crosby, alone and acoustic, now that was something special.
Rivers, highways, coyotes, border crossings, and the wide night sky all played a part in Joe Ely's resonant Lone Star travelogue.
New musical combinations can offer incredibly special moments. As Davey Payne, Terry Day and others performed, I realized: This was such an evening.
Wednesday night's Bob Dylan concert was as meticulously crafted as a classical music program by the Milwaukee Symphony.
Adam Lambert has learned many things during his time fronting Queen, not least of which is how to approach both fame and the nightlife.
As a 2015 summer tour featuring Toto and Yes is announced, Steve Lukather talks about how two seemingly very different bands overlap.
After working on nine or so reunion songs, Santana is set to perform a series of dates with former bandmates Gregg Rolie and Neal Schon.
There was no small amount of violence in Blind Willie Johnson's original take, and that's boldly recaptured in this unheard version by the Staple Singers.

Olympus m:robe
This article has multiple issues. Please help improve it or discuss these issues on the talk page. (Learn how and when to remove these template messages)(Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Olympus m:robe is a range of MP3 players produced by Olympus Corporation.
On October 13, 2004, Olympus released two MP3 players: the 5GB MR-100 with monochrome display and the 20GB MR-500i with colour display and built in camera. The MR-100's release price was $249.99 (USD), and the MR-500i's release price was $499.99 (USD). The later MR-F10, MR-F20, and MR-F30 players with colour screens, drag-and-drop file transferring, and FM tuning and recording were only released in Asia. Production of the m:robe music players has now ceased, however some models are still available. The name m:robe is a contraction of Music wardROBE.
The MR:100 is a 5GB MP3 player. It has a bright red on deep blood red 1.25 x 1 inch display which is 160 pixels wide and 128 pixels high. It also has a touch pad for the controls that glows red where the sensitivity pads are. The entire front is covered in a single piece of plastic, and when the m:robe is turned off or idling, the front turns all black. It has a metal back painted in Pearl White, although in Japan limited numbers were also available with a Pearl Pink or Lagoon Blue back. The MR-100 uses the same PortalPlayer PP5020 CPU as the iPod mini, and uses a very similar interface. The player is compatible with MP3 and WMA files. It includes an AC adapter, a USB cable, a dock, a pair of earbuds, a headphone extension wire, a CD-ROM with the player's software, and documentation. Additional accessories available include a red or black rubber sleeve and a wired remote that plugs into the MR:100.
Rockbox is now fully functional on the m:robe 100 series and allows many features not possible in the original firmware.
The MR-500i is a 20GB MP3 player/camera combo. It has a 3.7 inch 640x480 (VGA) 262,144 colour LCD touch screen. The player has the ability to play music and take photos, as well as a "remix" mode where the user can choose a song to play with a selection of photos. It comes with a wired remote which allows you to change between songs, view the song being played, and change the volume. The remote is also available as an optional accessory for the MR:100. The back of the player is Pearl White like the original MR-100. The MR-500i supports MP3 and WMA audio files. It comes with an AC adapter, a USB cable, a dock, a pair of earbuds, the m:robe remote, a CD-ROM with the player's software, and documentation.
MR-Fxx series[edit]
The MR-Fxx series consists of the MR-F10, MR-F20, and MR-F30. They are only available in Asia. They are all available with 512MB and 1GB flash memory, except the MR-F20 which only comes in 512MB. They all have color screens with varying resolutions and color depth. The MR-F10 and MR-F20 have 65,536-colour organic electroluminescent displays, and the MR-F30 has a 262,144-color organic electroluminescent display. The MR-F10 is available in pearl white or gloss black, and comes with an earbud neckstrap. The MR-F20 follows in the MR-100's footsteps, with a pearl white back and a piece of plastic on the front, with black behind it and recessed touch buttons (similar to the 3G iPod) that glow red. The MR-F30 is available in white and black. The MR-F20 and MR-F30 have a built-in FM tuner with an aircheck function for recording radio broadcasts. The MR-F30 and MR-F20 have a built in voice recorder. A Drag and Drop interface can be used instead of m:trip.
The device's main software in transferring media between the player and a computer is called m:trip, and has been heavily criticised by m:robe users. The software initially only ran on Windows 2000 or Windows XP (Home and Professional), and not supporting Macintosh or Linux. Later it did support Linux. M-trip software requires users to "Sync" to upload music, and if you sync an m:robe from a different computer, it deletes all of the music, to prevent piracy. In addition, the program has been accused of having numerous syncing bugs; notably in version 1.06 of the software, some computers are unable to sync any files to the m:robes. This problem can only be fixed by replacing a .dll file. More detailed instructions on how to solve this problem can be found here: http://www.mrobe.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=21&Itemid=5.
m:trip 2.0 (184.108.40.206) was released July 5, 2006 (only for Japan), which made improvements to the software, including adding a Remix-Cube function, an automatic update/importing of music, and a new service named Olio. More information about the update can be found in the forums of the m:robe community site http://www.mrobe.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1806. An English patch was made for the 2.0 version by independent developers, but it was rendered obsolete when Olympus released version 2.1. This version created a new save folder option for remix cubes and made minor changes and additions to the remix function and to the program itself. The patch was released in Japan and is available for download here: m:trip 2.0. An English patch is available here: English Patch. More information about version 2.1 can be found here: http://www.mrobe.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=26114.
Various m:trip replacements have been released by independent developers. Their aim is to provide a simple unintrusive alternative to m:trip without any of its multimedia capabilities. Below is a list of most of the currently available alternatives.
Current situation[edit]
On November 9, 2005, Olympus announced that they were stopping production of the m:robes. Many users say that it was due to the lack of marketing — the only marketing in the United States was two Super Bowl ads. Many users also predicted this stop, due to the drop in price of the m:robes shortly before the action was taken, and the fact that the MR-100 was being sold at Radio Shack for $100 USD after rebates. There are only a few accessories for the m:robes.
The m:robe line of players are no longer available for purchase from the Olympus website and Olympus has frozen the development of the next generation of m:robe products to put more resources into its digital camera and audio recording research, development, marketing and sales.[1]
M:robe music players can still be purchased on eBay and other used electronics outlets.
Firmware and software updates are available at http://www.olympusamerica.com/cpg_section/cpg_downloads.asp?id=91.
There is a flaw in version 1.06 of m:trip, a fix can be found at http://www.mrobe.org/content/view/21/4/.
There is an active community for the m:robes at http://www.mrobe.org/.
A port of the Rockbox open source firmware is currently available for the m:robe 100, and a work-in-progress port for the m:robe500i is underway. A version of Linux has also been made for the m:robe.[2]
MR-100 can be used with LCD remote(RM-13) and Data Sync/Charge Cradle. RM-13 Has "Heart" Button which let you add songs to favorite list. RM-13 Displays Track Time, Title, Battery, and Track Number. Languages supported on RM-13 remote are English, Korean, and Japanese. However other languages might be displayed. Also RM-13 has green backlit. There are also mode and digital volume buttons.

him! He did not even have time to duck before it plowed into the

aircraft appeared in my window, coming over my right shoulder as I
faced the Westside of the Pentagon directly towards the heliport.
The aircraft, looking to be either a 757 or Airbus, seemed to come
directly over the annex, as if it had been following Columbia
Pike - an Arlington road leading to Pentagon. The aircraft was
moving fast, at what I could only be estimate as between 250 to 300
knots. All in all, I probably only had the aircraft in my field of
view for approximately 3 seconds. The aircraft was at a
sharp downward angle of attack, on a direct course for the Pentagon.
It was "clean", in as much as, there were no flaps applied and no
apparent landing gear deployed. He was slightly left wing down as he
appeared in my line of sight, as if he'd just "jinked" to avoid
something. As he crossed Route 110 he appeared to level his wings,
making a slight right wing slow adjustment as he impacted low on
the Westside of the building to the right of the helo, tower and

knew what was happening, and I involuntarily ducked as the plane
passed perhaps 50 to 75 feet above the roof of my car at great
speed. The plane slammed into the west wall of the Pentagon,
perhaps at the third-floor level. The impact was deafening. The
fuselage hit the ground and blew up." "...Then I went from car

type of plane it was because it was so close I could only see
the bottom. Realising the Pentagon was its target, I didn't think
the careering, full-throttled craft would get that far.
Its downward angle was too sharp, its elevation of
maybe 50 feet, too low. Street lights toppled as the plane barely
cleared the Interstate 395 overpass. The thought that I was
about to die was immediate and certain. This plane was going to hit
me along with all the other commuters trapped on Washington

Penny Elgas was driving to work
(at the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation near the White House)
headed north stuck in the traffic, almost in front of the Pentagon.
Hearing a rumble, she looked out of her driver's side
window to see the nose of an airplane coming straight at us from
over Columbia Pike. "to the side of (and not much above) the CITGO
gas station... in slow motion .... toward my car and then it banked
in the slightest turn in front of me, toward the heliport.
... not more than 80 feet off the ground and about 4-5 car
lengths in front of me. It was far enough in front of me that I saw
the end of the wing closest to me and the underside of the other
wing as that other wing rocked slightly toward the ground. I
remember recognizing it as an American Airlines plane -- I could
see the windows and the color stripes. ... as if it
were a paper glider ... it gently rocked and slowly glided straight
into the Pentagon. At the point where the fuselage hit the wall, it
seemed to simply melt into the building. I saw a smoke ring surround
the fuselage as it made contact with the wall. It appeared as a
smoke ring that encircled the fuselage at the point of contact and
it seemed to be several feet thick. I later realized that it was
probably the rubble of churning bits of the plane and concrete. The
churning smoke ring started at the top of the fuselage and
simultaneously wrapped down both the right and left sides of the
fuselage to the underside, where the coiling rings crossed over each
other and then coiled back up to the top. Then it started over again
-- only this next time, I also saw fire, glowing fire in the smoke
ring. At that point, the wings disappeared into the Pentagon. And
then I saw an explosion and watched the tail of the plane slip into
the building. It was here that I closed my eyes for a moment and

"... we saw a plane coming toward us, for about 10 seconds
... It was like watching a train wreck. I was mesmerized. ... At
first I thought it was trying to crash land, but it was coming in so
deliberately, so level... Everyone said there was a deafening
explosion, but with the adrenaline, we didn't hear it."St.

Dobbs, a Marine Corps Policy
Planner Commander, 'was standing on one of the upper levels of the
outer ring of the Pentagon looking out the window when he saw an
American Airlines 737 twin-engine airliner strike the
building.' " It seemed to be almost coming in in slow
motion," http://www.abqtrib.com/archives/news01/091201_news_dcscene.shtml
"It was an American airlines airliner. I was looking out the
window and saw it come right over the Navy annex at a slow
angle. It looked to me to be on a zero-to-zero course. It
seemed to be almost coming in slow motion. I didn't actually
feel it hit, but I saw it and then we all started running. They

Michael DiPaula, 41, who lives
in Alexandria, was a project coordinator for the Pentagon Renovation
Team. He left a meeting in the Pentagon just minutes before the
crash, looking for an electrician who didn't show, in a construction
trailer less than 75 feet away. "Suddenly, an airplane
roared into view, nearly shearing the roof off the trailer before
slamming into the E ring. 'It sounded like a
missile,' DiPaula recalls . . . Buried in debris and
covered with airplane fuel, he was briefly listed by authorities as
missing, but eventually crawled from the flaming debris and the
shroud of black smoke unscathed."A

President Obama and Governor Romney faced tough questions tonight from moderator Jim Leher.
The two battled over health care and the economy, and both seem far apart over how taxes can help our struggling economy.
For undecided voters like Freshman U of R student Michael Heeley, one debate wasn't enough for either candidate to win his vote, "Our country faces a lot of issues, I'm finding," says Heeley, "and I find the more I learn about the more informed I become it's harder to make a conviction of which side is better. On the one hand there's the benefits of things like the affordable care act and things like that, but every day we're increasing our debt so I understand the fiscal responsibility that the republicans talk about."
President Obama and Mitt Romney will debate two more times before the November election.

Extremely smooth draw, even burn, and never too hot too early. Please don't tell anyone about these because when these are gone, they're gone. Can't even get them by the box anymore... (at least, that's what I surmise)

Flavor was subtle in the beginning then it started to become more robust. Tasted like a black coffee or an espresso with some dark chocolate on the side. The woody notes I picked up from retro-haling made me feel as if I was sitting in front of a fireplace while sipping coffee. Ash held on for quite a bit and the wrapper never showed signs of cracking. Great price for 5.

To paraphrase Alfred, Lord Tennyson: Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky, the flying cloud, the frosty light—the month is dying in the night. So before the month of May evaporates, be sure to check out Karen Ehlers' luscious oils on panel and Jan Cavecche's inventively composed works on paper at Blackfish (420 NW 9th Ave., 234-2634. Closes May 26). Dinh Q. Lê's woven photo tapestries and Platoon-meets-Apocalypse Now digital video are standouts at Elizabeth Leach (417 NW 9th Ave., 224-0521. Closes June 23). At Lawrence, Barry Mack's Clash is perhaps the abstract painter's masterwork, with its splatters and geometries counterposed, its blooming and weeping turquoise squares evoking the ages of man (903 NW Davis St., 228-1776. Closes May 31). Michael L. Wilson hits his stride at Rake with Before the Inside, To the One and Coming Back, in which the painter bisects elegantly flat picture planes, throwing visceral shapes into a kind of chromatic contrast suggesting light and shadow (325 NW 6th Ave., 750-0754. Closes May 26).
Musical talent often runs in bloodlines, but it's harder to come up with families in which visual-arts talent is passed down. This month at the ad hoc Warren Family Art Salon we see works by artists related to prominent Portland grande dame Nani Warren and her late husband, entrepreneur Robert C. Warren. Highlights of the show, organized by Nani's daughter Wendy, include Catherine Warren's floral-influenced semi-abstractions; Greg Misarti's close-up photographic studies of urban decay; Peter Gronquist's quirky, heavily varnished oils on panel; Nell Warren's water-based mixed media; David McGraw's geometric abstraction; and Lacey Brown's figure studies of dancers in motion. Particular standouts are Lillian Kingery's delicate ink filigrees and Wendy Burden's (the widow of Macheesmo Mouse kingpin Tiger Warren) potent reimagining of the still life via pop art and anime. Burden's Mao and L.A. Dunny presents the iconic Communist as sculpted by Frank Kozik, wearing Mickey Mouse ears and chomping on a stogie. Bookending Mao are flowers in small vases, with Dunny, the popular Japanese figurine, standing defiantly between them. The artist's Buddha and Dunny continues the series, which falls into a witty strain of post-ironic kitsch built around recontextualizing historic figures and genres. This tactic owes much to the pop tradition but fast-forwards from the 1960s to contemporary Gen-Y obsessions. Burden's winky approach is ripe for further exploration (120 NW 13th Ave. Closes May 31).

Recently I have been writing a lot about the Minnesota Twins' prospects and how promising the future looks for the organization, but now it's time to get down to brass tacks: Who has the highest ceiling?
Everybody knows one of those guys is going to be Miguel Sano; nobody can ignore the beast he projects to be at the major league level, but how did the rest of the list come about?
Trust me, it's quite the formula: an unhealthy amount of sports talk radio, countless sports sections of the Star Tribune, some statistical analysis and my own gut feeling. It's a delicious recipe for...probably personally jinxing the future of a professional sports team.
My fandom of a sports team is the kiss of death. I'm so sorry for your playoff exit, 2012 Baltimore Orioles.
I am the human Madden cover.

There's only one order of business this week as we charge into the new year with Oscar nominations right around the corner: firming up predictions. Of course, we won't offer up final thoughts on those until next week but in the meantime, there are plenty of close races to mull over and attempt to handicap, so we give it our best.
Have a listen to the new podcast below. If the file cuts off for you at any time, try the back-up download link at the bottom of this post. You to subscribe to Oscar Talk via iTunes here.

/3rtWhat are your gripes with 'Middle of Nowhere'?January 4, 2013 at 1:57PM ESTReply to Comment
dan (guest)You guys mention the DP in The Master. I wonder if Robert Ellswit had more control over PTA than anyone thinks and becuase of that PTA was able to run over the Masters DP. I'm wondering if he gets Ellswit back for Inherent Vice if that will become more obvious.January 4, 2013 at 2:09PM ESTReply to Comment
/3rtHe doesn't need his former DP. THE MASTER stands gorgeous as is. What I do want is Leslie Jones editing his movies from now on. She cuts everything to the bone and he certainly needs someone who is precious about keeping every bit of film in (Nights; Magnolia; Blood).January 4, 2013 at 2:21PM EST
/3rt*who isn't preciousJanuary 4, 2013 at 2:22PM EST
KristopherTapleyYeah, I don't get this whole thing. Sounds like Anne was talking to people who were extrapolating.January 4, 2013 at 2:36PM EST
weed4504I thought the idea that PTA is "divisive" and not loved by the industry is a fairly hard argument to back up. I've read constant praise from many actors and directors who view him as one of, if not the, great American filmmaking auteurs right now.
Also, PTA has recently said he hopes Elswit will return for Inherent Vice.
January 5, 2013 at 12:25AM EST
BlakeI attended a cinematography master class with Bob Elswit last June, and coming from him, he said PTA and his DP on The Master were having difficulties on set, though he didn't go into any detail. As Bob describes it, he and Anderson have an organic shorthand when working on set, and he sees that rooted in the fact that the two appreciate the same films from the 50s-70s. There's just a lot of trust in that Director/DP relationship, and that's why they work so well together. So there seems to be some truth in what Anne was suggesting.January 5, 2013 at 3:03PM EST
KristopherTapleyOk, but so? Does any of that drama show up in the work? I don't really get the significance of it. PTA is notoriously difficult.January 7, 2013 at 12:59AM EST
N8 (guest)Tempting as it is to be optimistic, I don't think Deakins is happening. Dude's cursed. Besides, "Best Cinematography" seems to have become an extension of "Best Visual Effects" in the Academy's eyes lately. Life of Pi takes it.January 4, 2013 at 2:43PM ESTReply to Comment
KristopherTapleyObviously the safe bet. Still won't uncross my fingers.January 4, 2013 at 2:49PM EST
red_winePi will obviously win Cine and VFX and take a horrifying streak to 4 years. Its just hugely distressing that 4 four films which were reliant on CG for almost anything in them worth looking at will have won for cinematography 4 years in a row.January 4, 2013 at 4:46PM EST
Joe7827I'm sorry, but what exactly did the CGI contribute to Life of Pi's cinematography? To me, the lovely lighting, colors, and framing were all Miranda.
I wouldn't cry about his win just yet, anyway. If Skyfall gets that Best Picture nod, then Deakins might be the favorite.January 4, 2013 at 9:11PM EST
red_wineThe movie was shot in a boat, moving on a rig, in a blue screen hall that was then replaced with the sky and ocean and Richard Parker. In the middle stretch of the movie takes place on the sea, almost everything you saw on screen apart from the boy was CGI.January 5, 2013 at 3:12AM EST
Laura StewartThe Master was this years Young Adult for me. A critics darling that was entirely misunderstood by the folks who vote for these awards. Sad but true. 10 years from now we will be talking about The Master... not friggin' SLP or Les Miserables. Or even Life of Pi.January 4, 2013 at 2:54PM ESTReply to Comment
Kyle PinionPossibly/Hopefully on The Master, but is anybody still talking about Young Adult? I had to think for a second what that even was...January 4, 2013 at 6:30PM EST
daveyloI won't be talking about The Master next month.January 4, 2013 at 8:53PM EST
forgNever wise to "tell the the future" now, we can never tellJanuary 4, 2013 at 11:22PM EST
Evan (guest)Glad to have you guys back. Happy New Year!
Re: the Foreign Films, Steve Pond has said a few things that contradicted Anne's appraisal of the situation. He reported that the response to A Royal Affair was varied and "unexpectedly muted." He also said that No played well to the committee, and that War Witch got "favorable notices from [committee] members."
I'm predicting the same as you (I think), Kris-- Amour, The Intouchables, No, A Royal Affair, and War Witch-- but I wouldn't be surprised to see 'Affair' drop off.
Also, Kris, they're playing The Deep and Kon-Tiki at Lincoln Center this Saturday night. I can't remember if you said you were in-town this weekend or not, but if so-- check them out.January 4, 2013 at 3:50PM ESTReply to Comment
KristopherTapleyYeah I just noticed that earlier today. Got a War Witch screener on the way and I'll try to make that double feature tomorrow.January 4, 2013 at 5:17PM EST
daveyloI was planning to see The Deep-Kon Tiki double bill but I'm stuck in CT with a bad cold. Would have been nice to meet some people who post here.January 4, 2013 at 8:47PM EST
GuyLodgeI can easily imagine that War Witch got in without the committee's help. Packs a hefty emotional punch, that one.January 5, 2013 at 7:38PM EST
braceKon-Tiki might get in in the foreign language category because the same named documentary about that expedition won best documentary in 1950 so it's in a way part of the Oscar history.January 4, 2013 at 4:07PM ESTReply to Comment
Alex in Movieland (guest)Kris, I think you were right to include "No" & "War Witch", because otherwise there'll be 5 European films - which we know WON'T happen.
Just replace Royal Affair with "Beyond the Hills" (taking the Dogtooth place) and there's the list. :)January 4, 2013 at 6:19PM ESTReply to Comment
EvanI've also been toying with the idea that the special committee will go for Beyond the Hills. The (seemingly) most unlikely nominee has been nominated quite frequently since this new system came into being (plus, there's the whole "Making it up to Mungiu" thing).
Ultimately though, I think I've decided that it's too slow-paced to end up a nominee. But who knows...January 5, 2013 at 4:26PM EST
Conor (guest)I know Anne's not the only one predicting it, but Silver Linings Playbook getting a director nod just doesn't make sense to me. I can't see directors going for it over other movies in such a competitive year.January 4, 2013 at 7:01PM ESTReply to Comment
JLPattDisagreed. It's a beautifully directed film and similar dramedies have been nominated for their directors in the past (see Reitman for "Juno" and "Up in the Air," and Payne last year for "Descendants").January 4, 2013 at 7:04PM EST
ConorAh, too true. The latter two of those did get director nods from the Globes though, for what it's worth.January 4, 2013 at 7:33PM EST
daveyloI liked Skyfall but I wouldn't call Mendes "a truly great director." He's a much more gifted stage director.January 4, 2013 at 7:02PM ESTReply to Comment
JamesNot to mention he made nolan's bond, and is getting credit for making a "fresh bond".January 4, 2013 at 7:11PM EST
KristopherTapleyThese are all ignorant statements. Well, James's anyway. I'll concede Skyfall took some cues from TDK -- I was one of the first talking about that. But if you don't get that Mendes is a craftsman I don't think you've been paying attention to his work.January 4, 2013 at 7:44PM EST
JamesCues? there is WAY too much TDK and Inception in Skyfall for Logan and Mendes to deserve credit for reinventing James Bond. They took someone else's work/vision and applied it. Story, characters, set design, score, ect is all very, very Nolan-ish. I know Nolan has taken some cues from the Bond films in the past, but come on. They even used some of the same jokes (subtle car gag) ugh.
Call it what you want (and I liked Skyfall quite a bit), but there is no way to downplay Mendes applying other peoples work here. Paul Greengrass deserves a mention as well.
What new/original idea or vision did Mendes add?January 4, 2013 at 9:02PM EST
daveyloI may be too harsh regarding Mendes' film work. I thought American Beauty and The Road to Perdition owed a lot to Conrad Hall's input. Revolutionary Road was a disappointment to me, despite the valiant efforts of the actors. I've enjoyed Away We Go because it was less heavy handed. Skyfall was very entertaining for me and then surprisingly moving but I can see why Mendes is being accused of making an anti-Bond film. The thing is I've loved the work Mendes has done on stage at BAM. His productions of Uncle Vanya and Twelfth Night with Simon Russell Beale and Emily Watson were so magical. And his co-direction of Cabaret on stage was stunning.January 4, 2013 at 9:06PM EST
Paul OutlawYou forget JARHEAD, which in some respects is my favorite pre-SKYFALL Mendes.January 5, 2013 at 12:42AM EST
KristopherTapleyYou're overstating it James. Also, I never said Mendes "re-invented" Bond, I don't think.
Davey: Owed a lot to Connie Hall's input? I kind of hate comments like that. You weren't on that set. You don't know what that relationship was. You think Mendes just lucked into his personnel? Part of a director's job is putting a crew together. The other part, by the way, is having them exact your vision.January 5, 2013 at 1:01AM EST
daveyloI wish I could find the interview with Mendes but he mentioned he owed a great deal to Hall for American Beauty's look and to the editor. So I think they helped him a lot on the first film. Why do you underrate collaboration in film? Not all directors are auteurs or visionaries.January 5, 2013 at 1:16AM EST
JamesHow am I overstating it Kris? When someone can point to almost 20-30 things (some major plot-points and famous scenes) from another movie, it's a rip-off. Plain and simple. Look, I liked the movie, but it's weak sauce that anyone would celebrate Mendes and Logan for outright installing another director(s) vision. I just think they went over the "inspired by" line.
What did Mendes bring to the table here? What does his voice add to the conversation? Nothing, and should THAT be applauded!? Sorry if I come across as overtly aggressiv, but I guess I don't celebrate the "sloppy seconds".
And I agree with your second argument (aimed towards Davey)January 5, 2013 at 1:33AM EST
red_wineAt this point I have even seen Nolan fans state that Citizen Kane was inspired by Nolan, so them stating that Skyfall was inspired by Nolan is hardly a surprise.January 5, 2013 at 3:16AM EST
JamesAnd someone pulled the fanboy card:-) The story of the internet.January 5, 2013 at 10:03AM EST
KristopherTapley"Why do you underrate collaboration in film?"
I don't so please don't put words into my mouth. I think you're underrated directorial vision, however.
James: Because you're using a sledgehammer to take note of something that doesn't demand the heavy-handedness.January 5, 2013 at 3:26PM EST
JLPattAm I crazy or did you guys not mention Jackson for the Best Actor nominees?January 4, 2013 at 7:02PM ESTReply to Comment
JLPattUgh, *Jackman*.January 4, 2013 at 7:03PM EST
daveyloJackman was left out for some reason.January 4, 2013 at 9:07PM EST
KristopherTapleyNot for any reason. It's just a pretty well-defined race so some things go without mentioning.January 5, 2013 at 1:01AM EST
AndrewWait, so you see Jackman and denzel edging out phoenix? You guys said phoenix is "sixth," but I'm not sure I heard five that put him there.January 5, 2013 at 4:42AM EST
KristopherTapleySeriously? Jackman goes without saying. He was the fifth. Why are you guys getting hung up on this? See the five in my Best Actor predictions? We just didn't meditate on the category in the podcast. Those are the five pushing Phoenix out. Done.January 5, 2013 at 3:27PM EST

Paul OutlawThe saddest (for lack of a better word) thing about next week's Oscar nominations announcement will be the continued presence of Django Unchained and Silver Linings Playbook in this year's Oscar conversation.January 4, 2013 at 8:02PM EST
KristopherTapleyOr...a conversation?January 4, 2013 at 8:54PM EST
daveyloI think Moonrise will get in. When you look over all the titles, you tend to look at it fondly.January 4, 2013 at 7:14PM ESTReply to Comment

daveyloHugh Jackman is much more solid than Washington.January 4, 2013 at 7:17PM ESTReply to Comment
DylanSI'd wager Jackman is the number 2 after Day-Lewis. Some people have gripes about his singing, but I think most were moved by his performance and also, I get the sense that people love him, and rightly so, because he seems like a nice dude.January 4, 2013 at 9:08PM EST
daveyloI don't know how many women vote in the Academy but they LOVE Jackman -- and of course, so do some men :-)!January 4, 2013 at 9:09PM EST
JLPattYeah, have no idea how Anne left him out, and Kris didn't even correct her. Jackman has to be considered a lock, no?January 4, 2013 at 9:15PM EST
KristopherTapleySee above.January 5, 2013 at 1:02AM EST
daveyloAmy Adams is not going to be nominated. It would be wild if Dench and Smith were nominated.January 4, 2013 at 7:24PM ESTReply to Comment
daveyloI saw A Royal Affair on a big screen. Loved the acting and story.January 4, 2013 at 7:31PM ESTReply to Comment
Edwin (guest)I'm predicting "Django" to make it in, but I still think Anne is being a bit overconfident about it. I keep getting "Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" vibes from its Oscar potential, and it really hasn't done much better than that movie did with the precursors. Again, I do think it will be nominated, but I certainly wouldn't find it shocking if it missed.January 4, 2013 at 7:37PM ESTReply to Comment
KristopherTapleyMe too.January 4, 2013 at 7:45PM EST
JJ1Even though i really dug it, i agree that Django Screams Dragon Tattoo miss to me, as well. Too violent. And too late.January 4, 2013 at 11:28PM EST
HoustonRufusI agree with this. I get that Tarantino is respected. But as I watched Django, it was hard for me to see the Academy swooning over it. It's a tougher sell than Basterds, in my opinion. I'm still predicting it, too, but not with confidence.January 5, 2013 at 11:15AM EST
Paul OutlawNo one's mentioned Eddie Redmayne, who could be as much of a spoiler in Supporting as Bardem.January 4, 2013 at 8:11PM ESTReply to Comment
daveyloWould love Redmayne to be nominated. He will get a BAFTA nomination and could even win.January 4, 2013 at 8:51PM EST
AlRedmayne seemed to have lost steam almost immediately as soon as conversation began. Certainly a threat, but not quite the spoiler that Bardem is.January 4, 2013 at 9:14PM EST
DylanSI'm really hoping Samantha Barks can land a BAFTA and also shows up for Oscar. It's a weak category, and I think it's possible.January 4, 2013 at 9:16PM EST
JJ1If Les Mis is huge with the academy, I could see him taking the 5th spot that seems floundering between Bardem, , Dicaprio, Waltz, Jackson, and Mcgregor.January 4, 2013 at 11:30PM EST
KristopherTapleyWrite a comment...FYI, I was told Django went to DGA. It did not. Just to correct that.January 4, 2013 at 8:55PM ESTReply to Comment
Joe7827In response to the "well, if last year was so sucky and it had 9 nominees, then this year has to have more nominees" comments. Quality of year doesn't necessarily correlate with number of nominees. Last year, generally considered weaker, ended up with 9 nominees because there weren't as many great movies at the top, so the voters had to reach out to other non-consensus titles, leading to more spreading of wealth. I'm not sure it'll happen this year, because the frontrunners are actually good, so it's not as much of a free-for-all for voters (at least, it doesn't need to be).January 4, 2013 at 9:02PM ESTReply to Comment
DylanSI also think it has a great deal to do with how solidified the "top five" nominees. If they aren't solidified (like last year, where some thought "The Help" was in the top 5, and others "Moneyball" or something else), but this year it seems pretty clear with Lincoln, Argo, Les Miserables, Zero Dark and Silver Linings as the top 5January 4, 2013 at 9:15PM EST
daveyloOr maybe Life of Pi is in top 5.January 4, 2013 at 9:37PM EST
DylanSI think Kris brought up a key point about Life of Pi with the limp campaign. It really doesn't feel like it has much of presence, yet there are many who love it. I think it could have been a top 5, but I can't imagine which of those 5 would be out, and I think that will reflect in the Director nominations.January 4, 2013 at 9:47PM EST
KristopherTapleyI don't really think this computes.January 5, 2013 at 3:29PM EST
Joe7827Which part doesn't compute? All I'm suggesting is that sometimes in good years, there's greater consensus on the top films, so there aren't a lot of leftover votes going to other (6-10) films. Whereas in weaker years, since there's more disagreement, the votes tend to be more spread out.
To use a non-movie example: if RG3 wins ROY unanimously, does that mean there weren't any other good rookies? Of course not. It just means that most people could agree that RG3 was the best of the best. Whereas in other years, if the rookies aren't as strong, the votes might be more spread out.
I don't know. Maybe it's hard to explain, but it makes sense to me.January 5, 2013 at 4:10PM EST
KristopherTapleyI don't think there's consensus on a small amount of films. I sense passion across a wide spectrum. Ergo, a wide spectrum has a shot at getting in.January 5, 2013 at 5:38PM EST
Joe7827Fair enough. That may very well be the case, and my theory wouldn't apply for this year. I'd still say that consensus (or lack thereof) doesn't exactly equate to quality, though.January 6, 2013 at 12:12AM EST
Riley (guest)I was just curious about what you heard about The Intouchables seeing as you moved it up to 11 in your Best Picture predictions.January 5, 2013 at 12:42AM ESTReply to Comment
