I was told Sicario was going to be nominated for everything. I know I'm in the minority but outside of the way it looked, that movie was a bore fest. Liked the first 30 mins but than splat.

Only big surprise with Oscar nominations is Tom Hardy getting supporting nom for The Revenant which I'm happy about. Don't think he was getting recognized anywhere else.

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Jan 13, 2016 -> 11:11 PM) I'm with you in that minority. Most of the time I listen to DJ and Farmer on the radio while watching the game on TV with the volume muted. Edit: I also loved the listening to Farmer and Stone together. The sarcasm between the two was great! The people who like Farmer say they like his sarcasm and joking around but nobody mentions how he actually calls a game. It's horrible. He doesn't describe plays well at all. And his voice isn't made for play by play. Time to move on.

Finished rewatch f 4, 5, 6. Jedi doesn't hold up until the last 20 mins. Gets love because of New Hope and Empire IMO. Gonna watch, gulp, prequels next week.

Hate the Cubs all you want but Kasper is solid. Now time to get a new radio pbp voice.

Is there a program I can use to do my iMessaging on Windows laptop?

I've only watched 2 but did any soldiers lose their lives because of directly what he did? 5 years as a Taliban prisoner is something some people could look at and look at as punishment enough.

I've listened to 2. It's fine. Just different from S1.

Looking forward to a new voice and new style. Long overdue.

Back to Abnormal, Deadbirds.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jan 12, 2016 -> 05:07 PM) IMO, Concussion was same type of movie as Spotlight and Big Short, and it shows how impressive those two were for making perfect choices in almost every way, including not putting any ridiculous love story angle and focusing on ensemble cast. Was thinking the same thing as I watched. Especially comparing with Big Short.

Concussion was fine. Felt the love story really messed up the pacing.

When is signing day?

Del Rio is ripped but he's so damn boring. Slow in the ring and can't sell. Yawn.

Got a rejection email today saying I wouldn't fit in. Ouch.

I'll add Goodfellas to ones listed as multiple watches

I know a guy who is like 26 and he's writing blogs about Bowie and how important he was. I'm 36 and I know Bowie but never drooled over him. Before even my time.

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Jan 11, 2016 -> 12:06 PM) Didn't Luke burn his body? Something like that but Snoke isn't a tangible being. Jedi's become something when they die.

I recommend watching "Ways to Die in Oregon". It was on Netflix a few months ago. Not sure if it is anymore. I'm all for assisted suicide if it's hopeless for a patient and there's nothing modern medicine can do.

One of the voice I associate with my youth even though I was too young to be a fan. Ugh. F Cancer

Outside of Sicario, that whole post was great, bmags. Especially the last line.
