You may want to add Moneyball to the ones you want to see, unless of course you totally hate baseball.

I am looking forward to it too!

I second this. "Moneyball" was a great movie. But if you really hate baseball, you probably won't enjoy it. But it is my top 5 of baseball-themed movies.

As for the movie, I have yet to see it, perhaps now I won't.

Gary Oldman will always be Sid to me.

Am actually looking forward to the Oscars this year. So many good movies so little time

Well.

Yours truly is busily getting all of his chores done now so he can watch The Oscars tonight.

I'm pulling for both "The Help" and "Albert Nobbs" to scoop up awards for both their productions and their actresses and supporting actresses.

Looka this "Oscar Moment" from "The Help":

(I just laugh and laugh at that smirk on Minnie's face as she leaves the scene!!)

"Ruuuuuuun Minnie, RUUUUUUUN!!!!"

I love this movie and both Viola Davis and Octavia Spencer.

I'll be rootin' for 'em both!!!!

My predictions go 6 out of 24. 25%. LOL I think that is not great. But it was fun watching the show.

Funny, I agree that you don't really have to like either to like the movie, it is so well done. But, if you hate baseball, then it may be a bit much. I happen to like both math and baseball.

I think he is brilliant!
