Default Best Oscar Predictions

I didn't realize "Must Love Dogs" was on the list...that was a cute
movie, not what I would call Oscar material, though. "Weaterman" is on
our list to see. I've seen so many versions of "Oliver Twist" that I
guess I could stand one more.


Dickens is an abysmal read, but his books seem to make good
movies... the opposite is more common, great books made into
lousy movies.

We don't go see many movies... in fact I can't recall what
we went to see last. My wife & I don't have the need to "be
entertained" since we seem to be able to entertain
ourselves. But I heard some talk about a new Pink Panther
movie which I'd probably like.

A few months ago, I ordered a DVD of Walt Disney's
"Fantasia" which is the only DVD we own... we have some of
the BBC's Sherlock Holmes series, and a stack of sailing
videos, on VHS tape... probably will end up throwing them
all away.

It is a tradition in our household that we watch TV so
rarely that when we turn it on, the dog barks at it.
