Aaah, I love Quvenzhane! Please win, please win, please win. I just want the haters to suck it so bad. Edit: Aww, the haters will have to suck it some other time. No worries, though. J-Law’s cool. ---

Well, I WAS in first place in the SDMB pool, but I just went down in flames. I knew I was making a risky pick, and I paid for it. ---
