Maybe Next Year
So my brilliant idea for a panel was ultimately rejected by SXSW. I’m mixed with a weird combination of disappointment and relief, because by the time I found out, I would not have had a lot of time to put it together.
In other news, I Am Legend is good but not great (I’ll elaborate more on Friday). Atonement is really good but isn’t nearly getting the awards love everyone expected it to and, frankly, that’s appropriate. Like Will Smith’s performance in Legend, I’d give it a Golden Globe nod but not an Oscar nod.
More on pre-Oscar hysteria (or a lack thereof) soon.
