A week without Oscar...
Jeez, that was a weird feeling. And is it just me, or does the 2007-08 Oscar season suddenly seem like a cypher, a ship that passed in the night while more pressing matters (the writers' strike, the election...personally speaking, GRAD SCHOOL) were at hand? Add the lowest-ratings-ever and the perception that the nominees were by and large unpopular (relatively speaking) and I have to say, this looks like it's going to be a black hole as far as I'm concerned in the Oscar landscape of recent times.
Strangely enough, 2007 was my favorite year for movies in nearly a decade.
ANYWAY, all that is the lead-up to say that I'm not QUITE done for the season. Poor Gerard has a wrap-up column that I've been dragging my feet in editing and turning around, and I haven't exactly given a proper send-off. I just needed some decompression, I suppose. Back with more later...

Hi Kris,
What do you think the chances are for Australia, the Baz Luhrmann epic?
