SERIOUSLY!!!! JESSICA ALBA!?!??! WHEN DOES SEXUALITY COUNT AS GREAT ACTING?!?!?! oh wait...it's the 21st century already? hmm...

They weren't cows inside. They were waiting to be, but they forgot. Now they see sky, and they remember what they are.

/me does a double-take...


Hayden Christensen??? Katie Holmes for Batman??? Jessica Alba???

Okay, Hayden Christensen couldn't act his way out of a paper bag, from what I'd seen in the prequels. (Okay, and alot of that blame goes to George Lucas... any director who makes Natalie Portman come off contrived and wooden gets a big black X in my book.) Could he BE any whinier?

Jessica Alba? I agree with the other poster, Jessica Alba's entire role in Sin City was to shake her ass. (Did a damn fine job, too, and if there was an award for that I'd be the first to vote for her :) And nothing against Sin City (HUGE fan of Frank Miller from way back), but the acting is not what I remember about that movie.

Katie Holmes??? Katie Frelling Holmes??? Okay, okay, she's adorable. I've sat through the entire showing of First Daughter, okay? If Summer doesn't totally stomp that girl so hard in that category that it gives Tom Cruise a nose bleed I'll be totally dumbfounded.

*wheeze, pant, pant, pant...*

Okay, I'm done now. ;p

Okay, how does The Island get on there? Has the world gone mad? Does anyone other than me know that The Island was a remake of a crappy movie called "Clonus: The Parts Horror"? Does anyone remember that Clonus was a Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode? This is a sad day indeed. And while I loved Episode 3 (yeah, I know, SW fanboy since I was 4 - don't blame me, blame my parents) I think that Serenity was the FAR superior movie. The fact that ROTS gets a writing nod and Serenity doesn't completely invalidates these Saturn awards in my opinion.

Yup, remember it well! And yup, it is indeed!

And what a fine ep of MST3K it was too...

When it's done really, really, really, really, really, really well. Jessica put in a nine "really" performance, which gives her three to spare.

Sag.

Not even a nod? A nom? I'm pleased as anything for Summer, and glad the movie made a showing at all, but for Nathan to be overlooked shakes my faith in this awards program, which is truly terrifying because it means I had faith in an awards program.


I have to say that I haven't paid any attention to any awards shows for at least 10 years. I refuse to even watch them.

I know that it is important for an actor/directors carrer to win these awards, and I sure hope Summer and Serenity sweep. But, I also would not be in anyway surprised to see Alba and Sith win.

I'm sorry, I mean Science Fiction. Somebody went balistic about how using "Sci-Fi" emasulated the genre or something. Harlan Ellison, probably. Sounds like something he'd do.



Yes, I believe I remember Ellison ranting about the use of "Sci-Fi" on some media news show they used to have on the "Sci-Fi" channel. I really enjoyed his commentaries, but I thought he got a little carried away with that one. It's like the squawk about "Trekkies" versus "Trekkers" (I say tomAto, you say tomAUto. I say potAto, you say potAUto. Let's called the whole thing off).
