We had to move DSAFF to August. Logistics issues. Oh well. Gives us a little more time to prepare and execute. Been so so busy travelling - seems like I am spending more time on planes and in other countries than here - which often is not so bad - however being away from family can have a toll.

Oscars on tonight. First time in a while where I haven't really even seen a bunch of the nominated films. I saw Brokeback ... and I think that's about it. Oh I did see Munich as well. I liked them both. I wish I had seen Brokeback before all the hype - I think I would have liked it even better. I really think Heath Ledger and Michelle Williams both did an outstanding job in a beautiful little simple film. Nice to see Ang Lee returning to form after the disastorous Hulk.

Will it win the oscars though? Don't know. Here's my thoughts on who will win (not necessarily should, but will):

Reese Witherspoon - Walk the Line
Phillip Seymour Hoffman - Capote
George Clooney - Syriana
Rachel Weisz - Constant Gardner
Ang Lee - brokback
mmm and I think either Brokeback or Crash will probably take Best Picture.

I haven't seen Walk the Line yet - but I am a big Phoenix fan. So it's hard for me between Phoenix and Ledger - so? Also I thought Matt Dillon did a nice job in Crash even though I wish they didn't have to give him a "good" side in that script - it'd be nice to see that character just be an asshole - coz that's what he is - an asshole. Anyways - if Clooney's gonna win he will probably win for Screenplay so that may open up the supporting category for Matt or Paul.

Too many movies to watch. Not enough time. Have to make do with Law and Order. Thank god for Dick Wolfe. Otherwise I may have had to watch things like CSI ... aarrgghh!!
