    Mad Men Season 3

    I'm surprised they didn't address Pete with Peggy's revelation about the baby, but I guess the best is yet to come. I see they wanted to establish the new characters first, as well as create the immediate conflict between Pete and Cosgrove. If, for some dumb reason, AMC decides to cancel this...

    Michael Jackson has died!!!

    Not to be a jerk or anything...but did Michael Jackson really write the music to his songs? By "music," I mean the musical instruments. I am confident Michael could write the lyrics, but since I never saw him playing a musical instrument, I wonder if someone else wrote the music to his songs...

    Official 2009 Oscar Discussion

    What's gonna happen is the Golden Globes will become obsolete, because those same films that get nominated for the Globe will get nominated for the Oscar - you know, the musicals and comedies. the Globes break it down, however - Best Picture (musical/comedy) vs Best Picture (drama). Now it...

    "ON TRIAL: LEE HARVEY OSWALD" -- A Personal Review

    I read it in Evan Thomas's book "Robert Kennedy: A Life" also in "Seeds of Destruction." (I'd be hard pressed to find that online...but I did read that.)

    "ON TRIAL: LEE HARVEY OSWALD" -- A Personal Review

    who would want to kill this nice looking young man? Oswald was born the year this photo was taken (1939).

    "ON TRIAL: LEE HARVEY OSWALD" -- A Personal Review

    The best example of believing the Warren Report as gospel is the reaction of Robert Kennedy after he read it. He wasn't all 'up-in-arms' to nail Castro, or Hoffa and the mob, or Hoover, or the ghost of Marilyn for the murder of his brother, no. He resigned himself to "moving on," and do you...

    The Road coming in 2008...

    I think you underestimate movie audiences (mature movie audiences). A) you got fans of the book who will want to see the movie - that alone will probably pay for the movie. Then you have the B-factor. The B-factor is people who want to go to the movies to be "moved emotionally." People who...

    The Road coming in 2008...

    I'm in the middle of the book now, and although it took awhile to get used to that "writing style," I'm into it now. If this director keeps all of the dark elements from the book in this film, it will be some film, let me tell you! I hope this film gets NC-17, this way I can know for sure all...

    The Road coming in 2008...

    I'm really wondering how big a part Guy Pearce has in this, and if it is a grand part (awards-worthy)

    The Road coming in 2008...

    It is all about how a film is 'marketed.' If the movie studio decides not to compaign the film for the Oscars, it matters not how good a film is. The film could be fantastic, but if it isn't marketed/campaigned, it will not be nominated.

    Beatles Remastered Catalog posted for pre-order on Amazon.uk & HMV.uk!

    They did chart, and yes - you did miss them. Free As A Bird peaked at No.6 in 1995, and Real Love reached No.11 in 1996. You might have heard Real Love on TV commercials advertising Anthology 2.

    I Dream of Jeannie: Inconsistencies Discovered, History Gone Wild

    There was an episode in Season One that always bothered me. I don't think the writers had any idea where they wanted this series to go........ Roger Healey stole the lamp with Jeannie inside it - locked inside it! Roger wanted to be her Master. He opened the bottle, and Jeannie had to serve...
