I still have to watch a couple films before constructing an opinion on what or should win in different categories. I'm not planning on seeing all of them, but of the ones I didn't, I still intend to check out the Big Short, the Revenant, and Creed. I'm stoked!

Today my favorite Screen Rant correspondent announced he's moving on to new things. While I'll still frequent the site, he was one of the original members who built it up to what it is today. While I am happy that the podcast will be coming back soon, it will not be the same without him. I'm having a hard time coming up with a comparison. Just feeling melancholy about it all. Guess I'll have to follow him on Twitter, as that seems to be the thing to do these days with your favorite media personnel.

That sucks man... Are you normally active on Twitter? Personally, I've made an account several years ago, but never really manage to get into the groove, if you know what I mean.

I have a work twitter, but I don't really use it. Planning on getting better with that though. I figure the more plugged in I am to the social media options, the less likely I am to lose track of journalists whose works I enjoy consuming.

I used to live stream my music (I actually tried that again recently) and I have a Twitter for that but, yeah. I don't always like being too plugged in but, it does have it's benefits.

For sure. Anything new? I just discovered a few movies on Netflix I've been meaning to watch. Dope, Howard Stern's movie Private Parts, and seson 2 of Young Justice. That took forever to get uploaded. Man, I tell you...
What else is there? Oh, I'm currently enjoying American Idol's final season. LaPorsha Renae, Jeneve Rose Mitchell, Dalton Rappatoni, and Avalon Young are my favorites. There's also a contestant named Jenn Blosil who my wife and I think is a cat with a very elaborate human disguise. o_0

Double post time, since I can't edit the comment: Time to watch "The Impossible" for Tom Holland's performance. Yeah, it's Ewan McGregor and Naomi Watts' movie, I'm there to do research. I've been doing it for all the Spider-men, and more recently for their directors. Pretty excited.

Cool. So you're in Kentucky huh? Now all of that talk about chicken makes sense. Meanwhile my a** is in California's Central valley eating oranges and avocados!!! 0_o Good luck on all those scholarly endeavors Webber! I forgot to write about how I felt about Tom Holland in The Impossible. The kid was great. He turned in one of the finest performances for a child actor I've seen in any movie. The real stars of the show were Ewan McGregor and Naomi Watts. Even still, I bought him, just like I bought Tye Sheridan in Mud. Funny thing about following movies all the time is that when new actors or directors get announced to play your favorite character or direct your favorite franchise, you can almost think back to the time when they were in/directed another movie and you thought "maybe one day I'll check that out..." When The Impossible came out, I had no idea who the kid was, but I'd told myself I was going to have to see the film. Four years later, this movie has me on the edge of my seat, cringing, audibly gasping and annoying the crap out of my wife (I watched it on my laptop with headphones). Tom was 16 when he made this movie and he looked like he was 12. Four years later, he still looks very young. I think he's got the performance part down, but it will to have him look the part too.

Thanks Excellent! I was in Toronto the past couple days to celebrate the end of my midterms and take advantage of my March break. Have any of you guys been to Canada in the past?

I have not. I've actually never been out of the United States, though back in 2009 I traveled through over 25 states.

I've never been outside of the US either. I think I've been to like, 6, 7 states? 8 maybe? Not a lot haha. I've definitely been close to the Canadian border though, I'm really not toooo far away. I could probably drive to Toronto in like 10 hours.
