Many facepalms in there for me but rather than being a negative Nelly I will say, I kinda hope Julianne Moore wins Best Actress. (Rosamund Pike :facepalm:)

Mind you, I haven't seen that movie yet so that is subject to change - but in principle - I have been a big fan for a long time and have thought she deserved to win in the past. Like the year they gave it to Nicole Kidman was ridiculous.

The Julianne Moore scene in the pharmacy in Magnolia will be burned into my consciousness until the day I die I imagine.
 
Watched Birdman again last night and dismissed the lack of love for all things Broadway. Good flick, nothing world changing, imo. 7.1 baconballs.

has the potential to be the most overrated 2 hours ive sat through in quite some time...

cumberbatch is the best actor of that group, imo.. but i agree with mr. x... the trio in foxcatcher is hard to beat...

watched leviathan...quite enjoyable
 
Am I the only person who still watches Masters Of Sex?

I suppose I only still watch because Virginia is smoking hot and Bill is the most easily butt hurt character in the history of TV.


I watched to the end of the most recent season. While it frustrates me and causes my eyes to roll regularly, it has not quite dropped out of the rotation. Intending to pick it up again whenever season 3 starts up.
