In bold is what I believe will win, not necessarily who I'd like to win.

**I would love for Babel to win. I haven't seen The Queen or Letters From Iwo Jima. I thought LMS and The Departed were good. But I really loved Babel.

The acting categories seem so obvious this year. I wonder if any surprises would happen. Like Abigail Breslin takes Supporting Actress is the big surprise I could see.

It's all very predictable this year.

BEST DOCUMENTARY: AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH - Al Gore is sure to get the biggest standing ovation of the night!

As for the others: THE DEPARTED, Scorsese, Whittaker, Mirren, Murphy and Hudson should all win.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Discussion Thread

I always get why the sixth season gets the flak it gets because of how dark and real it was. But I do think that's what made it as brilliant as it was. But yes, Joss will likely never be involved again, especially if they want Sarah Michelle Gellar involved.
Taken from her interview with Vulture:
She has gone on record stating it is not her favourite because she found it too dark and that it betrayed the core of who Buffy was as a character and often cites that she cannot rewatch the season and did not enjoy the production aspect of it. Which is why season seven righted the "wrongs" of the sixth season.
From her interview with Vogue:

Ignore them at this point. Save yourself the unnecessary headache.
I can understand that, but I also suspect TPTB are not rushing to use their budget re-up this go 'round, which I believe is smart. Do I suspect the clinic could pop up at some point? Yes. Do I think it's a necessity? No.

I seem to recall an episode where Jason, Spinelli and I think Sam gave that MonaVie [!@#$%^&*] to someone who was unconscious or whatever. At the time, as I watching that, I thought ABC was taking an enormous risk by aiding and abetting what was clearly a Ponzi scheme on Burton's part, lol.

I have a different perspective; I always pictured him as Peter Blake on Days of Our Lives. Plus, we do not need former actors returning to this soap. Let's leave that in the past!

Boy, those were the days. Before Nashville became NashVegas, and country music turned into utter crap.

No. Absolutely not. William deVry must never appear on any soap ever again.

I tend to blame it on that video he made with Janet Jackson, with industry people not realizing it was Janet who made that video "hot," not him, lol.

FYI: Coster's wife at the time, Candace Hilligoss, who's best known for her work in the cult horror classic, "Carnival of Souls," published a memoir many years later about their marriage, called "The Odyssey and the Idiocy." According to the one-time Mrs. Coster, marriage to Mr. Coster was no day at the carnival either, lol.

Which was ridiculous to me even back then, because, c'mon, it wasn't THAT great of a movie, lol.
