  1. Thanks for all the effort that you both put in to this. I really appreciate your movie reviews and I will base a lot of my Oscar picks on points that you raised in your reviews.

    243 movies reviewed in one year! Talk about dedication to your preferred art form. Well done.

  2. Best Supporting Actor was a hard choice. I’m wondering why some weren’t in the category of Best Actor (Tom Hanks, Anthony Hopkins)
    I’m really curious who will win. They ALL should…

  3. My favorite email to open! Thanks again for making our movie going even more special. Question: How many of these movies do you see on the big screen? Again, our appreciation for your effort, Terri & Tony

  4. I was all set to watch the Oscars, the only awards show I watch. Unusually high winds Sunday, my power went out at 3:44pm power wasn’t restored until 11:12pm. How disappointing.

    243! Excellent! Thanks for your reports. I always use your blog as a guide.
