2. Wall-e, Wanted and Hellboy 2. I just watchedhe Big Lebowski again so i think that should count.

7. Indeed it was. I loved it.
However, I thought No Country For Old Men was just a bit better. I had no problems with that one winning Best Picture.

9. Tommy Lee Jones came into the bar I frequent the other day....
He came in and my group looked up at him and he recognized that we recognized him and he gave us a doozy of a go-to-hell look. Great actor, difficult person.

10. Yowza. I suppose I'm glad I live far away from where any celebrities dare tread with the common folk
I'd have a hard time not being excited if I had the chance to meet them. Don't think that would have worked out with Mister Jones!

13. We live out in the sticks, as does he. No, you don't approach Mr. Jones:
He comes into town frequently and there are stories of him storming out of stores when people approach him. He's an odd duck, but I suppose that would get old after a while. Still, I don't know why you wouldn't be more personable if you were in his position.
