Well I'm so happy Crash got the Oscar love....

HOWEVER I'm so torn because Crash and Brokeback Mountain are hands down my two favorite movies of the year and I really want Brokeback Mountain to win, but I also want Crash to win. Could there be a tie please? haha...

I really think Don Cheadle or Terrence Howard should have been nominated over Matt Dillon in Crash - but happy for Matt just the same.

I also am happy to see Jake and Michelle Williams for BBM nominated - they were every bit as good as Heath (who has gotten way more attention).

I'm torn between Reese and Felicity.

I saw History of Violence a long time ago - and I remember Viggo and Ed - but I couldn't remember William Hurt until I googled him - and his performance was way too small and unmemorable to take a nomination spot.

really dont understand all the hoopla over Crash, hope BBM wins.

Shock to see Keira Knightley on that list, i wouldnt mind if she won though, it will be like when Audrey Hepburn won for Roman Holiday. Its not that they are outstanding actresses, its just they have a radiance on screen that is really great to watch.

I wanted to see Thandie Newton get nominated for Crash. To me her and Terrance Howard were the best part of the movie. The scene when Thandie lashes out at Terrance was very well done.

I'd really like to see Crash win but I think Brokeback Mountain will be the big winner.

I like it that there is no big blockbuster this year hogging 14 nominations. It is a very balanced year but still some of those political choices like Munich..... it was a good film but I don't think it deserved to make the top 5. Crash though big thumbs up. That was an awesome choice I was so happy to see it get in there and the SAG win for ensemble helps it immensely but this is Brokeback's year which is just as equally amazing!

    • Okay, draglover, sorry I have now found a blonde in drag. Just didn't see them before. I had to watch it very slowly. Anyway, it's DAYS - Vivian - Ivan again, blonde this time, red head looking like a fortune teller in the other pic. Same actor/character/show.

      Wull, hey, is we a team all of a sudden or whut?!!! 
    • The blonde drag is also Ivan, I believe. The long straight black wig is Peter Barton when he was playing Eddie on Sunset Beach.
    • Sorry, I don't know the non-AW ones. In addition to the 2x Cass disguised himself as Krystle (1984 to hide from Tony Jones, 1994 investigating Felicia's disappearance), there was one occasion in October 1987 where Cass imposter Rex Allingham dressed as a woman and, claiming to be Nicole's Aunt Blanche, disrupted her date with another man. (At the time I don't think the audience yet knew that it wasn't Cass.)
    • THANK YOU SO MUCH. If there was any way we could sticky this post or make it so we don't forget where it is. I'm going to bookmark it for sure! AND WOW... Season 15 - nearly a whole month of skipped episodes. LOL.   
    • JFP was only as strong as her writers, which is why her output got worse and worse when she decided she was the only writer anyone needed. They could have easily had a decent short-term story with Lando - maybe cast him as a terminal patient at Cedars, or a long-lost Bauer or Reardon who would leave town after his story is done and possibly return at a later date with a recast. He might become close to Ed and Michelle, similar to how Ed had taken Kelly under his wing years earlier. Maybe he could have been tied to Maureen's death, somehow - maybe we'd learn, after he ingratiated himself to everyone in Springfield, that he accidentally ran Maureen off the road during the storm. And when he realizes this he would, in shame, leave town, maybe leaving some Springfield lady devastated if they were about to get married (this could have worked with a better Mindy recast, or maybe a brand new character).
    • Notes I've made of skipped or faulty YouTube episodes are (I'll put in brackets the faulty ones, the rest are skipped episodes), that would be amazing if they could be replaced by higher quality Netherlands copies when they become available:

      S13: 3170, 3172, 3181 (faulty), 3203 (faulty), 3223 (faulty), 3255, 3278 (faulty), 3345, 3361 (faulty) S14: 3399, 3455 (faulty), 3479 (faulty), 3509 (faulty), 3555 (faulty end credits), 3580, 3600 (faulty), 3613 (faulty) S15: 3658 (faulty), 3667, 3668, 3669, 3670, 3674, 3678, 3679, 3681, 3682, 3684, 3685, 3686, 3690, 3692, 3694, 3696, 3697, 3699, 3709 S16: 4058, 4059, 4109 S17: 4137, 4194, 4262, 4284, 4358, 4362, 4371 S18 so far skipped: 4450, 4451. There may be further S18 episodes to replace in English if there are any further skips on YouTube, as many episodes from this season are just in German in the vault, and if they skip those, then we probably have to wait for an eventual Netherlands airing unless someone currently has them in English (currently the German ones needing to replace to full English for S18 are: 4477, 4485, 4486, 4492, 4493, 4494, 4497, 4514, 4515, 4518, 4520, 4522, 4523, 4524, 4526, 4531, 4538, 4541, 4575, 4612 - hopefully YouTube will not skip these, and they won't be a problem to fix). Also, jumping ahead a bit to future seasons, but does anyone have full English speaking copies of any of 4852, 4897, 5275, 5308, 5590, 5591, 5594 (as these are not in full or at all in English in the vault as far as I can tell)? Many thanks if you do! A million thank yous to all Angels helping out with these. 
    • Thanks.

    • I found the reference in the AWHP synopses -- it was 1995 but not directly related to the loanshark.
