I LOVE her. **The Paper**. Can someone explain, please, why this movie wasn’t nominated for an oscar? ---

Unbelievable! I missed _Best in Show_ AND _A Mighty Wind_?! (But hey, I was running on a beach in Malibu at the time, so it’s all good. :D) Someone better bring us around to _Waiting for Guffman_ darn quick! Glenn Close? Would you believe I can only think of one movie she’s in (yeah, I’m terrible)? _101 Dalmatians_. ---

> [@Nightwatch Trailer](#): > > Glenn Close? Would you believe I can only think of one movie she’s in (yeah, I’m terrible)? _101 Dalmatians_. For Glenn Close my favorite is _The Jagged Edge_. But since it’s _101 Dalmatians_ I get to go with Joely Richardson who I not only went to high school with, but I did try to ask her out once. Of course she thought I was some plebe American and shot me straight down. 🙂 ---

Of course she thought I was some plebe American and shot me straight down. 🙂 That’s too bad, Shibb. Of course, if she had said yes, you might not be here playing this cool game now. Or maybe you would. **Shining Through** ---

> [@cbawlmer](#): > > _Carnal Knowledge_ I’m starting to get _deja vu_ from the last game. I’m fairly sure that we somehow played the Art Garfunkel card the last time. But I think Jack Nicholson was also in that (and maybe Ann Margaret – it was a long, long time ago), so let’s go with him, unless he’s already been played. ---

Ok, I remember that now. This game has officially gotten out of hand. So we’re using Jack Nicholson? Ok, let’s go with _Batman_. ---
