I have no idea who that is. Although Dr. Google tells me it's from Skyrim.

I love all kinds of stuff, books and movies and music and plays. But for some reason I just can't ****ing stand opera or musicals. I listen to hours and hours of orchestral music. I even listen to choral music, like say, Benjamin Britten's War Requiem or Krzysztof Penderecki's Polish Requiem (seriously, listen to that if you don't know it), but start some opera or a musical and I'll tune out in about 3 seconds flat.

No idea why.

It's much better than Oblivion (nothing like those annoying gates that kept popping up in this one). The scope is mind-boggling. I've played over 800 hours and I'm stilling playing, still enjoying it and still finding stuff I hadn't found before.

As a rule if the movie is up for Best picture but not director it won't win.

Interestingly I can go out to the Starlight theater and watch a live musical performance and get into it but if its in a movie format I have little or no interest in seeing it.

Movie musicals - especially movie versions of established stage musicals - are usually a disaster. This one is not.

I'm pretty certain Lincoln is gonna win best picture.

Hollywood loves the Well done historical epic. Especially one with social aspects and messages.

Anything but Le Mis.
