January 22, 200917 yr i've never seen skins besides a clip or two on youtube. it doesn't seem like my kind of show, really, and from what i can tell, dev patel was a TOTALLY different, lower-quality actor in that show. something changed in him for slumdog, and it was amazing, especially for such a young kid. i really need to see benjamin button and revolutionary road, but i don't think they'll be playing anywhere around here :sad:
January 26, 200917 yr *clears throat* YAY SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE FOR GETTING THE SAG FOR BEST CAST! :dance: i wish dev patel had won best supporting actor, but with heath dead and all (and deserving of the award), he had no chance. roll on, oscars! :nice:
January 26, 200917 yr Author i wish dev patel had won best supporting actor, but with heath dead and all (and deserving of the award), he had no chance. roll on, oscars! :nice: yeah I agree, I think that in any category that Heath is nominated in, none of the other nominees have a chance.. I would love to see Michael Shannon win for best actor in a supporting role at the Oscars, but I know that Heath will probably win. (Which is weird because Michael's performance in Revolutionary Road reminds me of the joker) :confused: but anyway.. yay for slumdog! :dance: For those that missed the SAG awards, here are the nominees and winners.

January 27, 200917 yr Cool to see I'm not the only person around who is such a geek when it comes to awards season. I love watching all of those awards for some weird reason. Most people I know don't lol, so its like a guilty pleasure.
January 27, 200917 yr skins is a brilliant show :wacko: I loved Dev in skins, he's hilarious! But I never knew he had the chops to do a movie like Slumdog! He was brilliant in it. :D
February 22, 200917 yr Author The Academy Awards start in 2 hours!! :dance: Print out a ballot here http://www.oscar.com/media/2009/pdf/OscarPrintableBallot_81st.pdf fill it out and see how many you get correct, I do this every year. it's addictive.
February 23, 200917 yr so. EXCITED. :bomb: i'm watching barbara walters now. does the ceremony start at 9, with an hour of red carpet before? i want to see some red carpet, but i also want to watch barbara...
February 23, 200917 yr also, did you hear about the possible leak of winners? http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/4782/1235075752496jc8.png don't click if you don't want to know, even though i don't think it's completely legit. we'll see.
February 23, 200917 yr Author It starts at 8:30. 7:00-8:00 = Barbara Walters Special 8:00-8:30 = Red Carpet 8:30-11:30 = Academy Awards Ceremony I've been watching red carpet stuff all day though. It started at 2pm on E! & yes I saw that list... but I don't think it's true. The Academy is sooo careful and secretive about everything.. I would be really surprised if that list turned out to be genuine.. but I guess we'll see pretty soon! :dance:
February 23, 200917 yr i think it's fake too, but part of me wonders. thanks for the times, lauren! i wanted to know how much red carpet there would be :D and i have my eyes peeled for dev patel :wideeyed:
February 23, 200917 yr Author and i have my eyes peeled for dev patel :wideeyed: omg me too, dev patel is a cutie. I'm 100% sure that slumdog will win a lot of things tonight. :D
February 23, 200917 yr DEVVVVVV :bigcry: he was hugging the little boys and holding the little girl's hand! :nice: i am such a fangirl, but i so love nerds :wacky: and i LOVE freida's dress in that picture!
February 23, 200917 yr Are you watching it now? It's 2:30am here but I'll watch as long as I can stay awake... Would be great to have somebody to talk to... Like about the Slumdog allusion a few seconds ago!!!!! :)
February 23, 200917 yr leak is officially wrong :dance: and :worried: they're getting so personal this year! i want slumdog to win everything :bigcry:
February 23, 200917 yr That's what I thought as well. The first win is already good. We're still showing "Vicky Cristina Barcelona" in the cinema I work at... means even more people coming to see it now! Slumdog hopefully will be a huge hit in Germany as well. Starts next month here.
