101 Days 'Til Oscar
Thursday, November 13, 2014 at 12:00PM 
WARNING: We are now entering our Oscar countdown trance. Do not resist. Resistance is futile.
COMING SOON: Tomorrow every Oscar chart will be updated to reflect last two weeks of buzz and actual first hand knowledge. Plentiful interviews coming your way.
TRIVIA: Neither 101 Dalmatians (1961) nor 101 Dalmations (1996) received an Oscar nomination of any kind. No, not even an Original Song nomination in '61 for Roger's in-film hit single "Cruella De Vil"

And then we got a costume design nomination for "102 Dalmations." Of all the "Dalmations" films for Oscar to notice. lol
Can't wait for the chart updates. To believe Selma finally has proved it exists and has a trailer. lol
Glenn Close is glorious as Cruella. The movie, not so much.
I just need to say this as someone who loves all things Oscar chat, it amuses and slightly frustrates me to no end the biopic cycle. Every year people get annoyed at showy portrayals of famous people getting nominated over other kinds of work. Then, said show portrayals appear and many of those same people rush to say "How much so-and-so is ________" in a movie. This isn't to say these performances are bad, just that I sometimes long for an acting category sans historical figures so the nominees could be more diverse.
End mini-rant.
Cruella de Vil, Cruella de Vil
If she doesn't scare you, no evil thing will
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
