My post just got deleted.....It was quite long......I'll try and write it again


I hate school. That about covers it.

I have acquired a few new addictions. One being stupid pins. Not safety pins, thankfully. Just random stupid pins that I put on everything I own. Even my pencil case has a pin on it, A Johnny Cash pin at that. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank my buddy Beth for the sweet Batman pencil case...I will keep pencils in it always. Also, I have a newfound addiction to magnets...Now I'm not sure if it's only for Roman Dirge magnets, or all magnets in general, I'll keep you posted...Because I'm sure you give a damn.

WHAT IS THE ACADEMY THINKING??????
You have GOT to be kidding me. <- That was my reaction while reading the nominees for the 77th Academy awards. Now, let me clarify something, i am an Oscar's addict. I take it upon myself to see every movie nominated every year. I throw an Oscar party. I am the number one fanboy of the Academy Awards....but this is bullshit. Let's go through it by category shall we? Actor in a Leading Role
Joaquin Phoenix, Philip Seymour Hoffman, David Strathairn and Heath Ledger I can understand... But Terrance Howard????? At first I thought I read something wrong. Because he was amazing in Crash...Which is nominated in almost every other category....But Hustle & flow? They must have been watching some other movie because I saw hustle and flow. I got it free from work. I STILL wanted my damn money back.
Supporting Role
Matt Dillon for playing a creepy cop....Makes sense, George Clooney...Well I haven't seen Syriana yet it's on my list though, William Hurt was good...Not Oscar good...But good, Jake Gyllenhaal...I just did something incredibly girly luckily you didn't have to witness it, Paul Giamatti????? COME ON!!! Not only did the movie suck, but he sucked in the movie, even if the movie was decent he still sucked in the movie.
Actress in a Leading Role
okay it's obvious that Keira Knightly is sleeping with someone very high up. VERY high up. The movie was bad and she just made it worse.
Supporting Actress
The kid from the OC was in Junebug.....That's all I have to say.
Animated Feature
I actually did a bit of a happy dance. Corpse Bride was AWESOME (even though my stupid work didn't get it on time), and Wallace and Gromit are always classic.

The only other thing I had a problem with was the Original Song Category:
It's Hard out Here For A Pimp....This is when I realized that not only did the Academy sell out, but it's desperately trying to reach a younger audience.....At any cost. This makes me sad for society in general.

I forget what else I wrote about so I'll end it here and go work on my essays, I've been avoiding them successfully all day...I hate school.
