I am going to try very hard not to watch the Oscars tonight. It is just not worth watching four hours of boring TV for the five minutes that I might find entertaining. D: (Especially because watching Wall-E get an Oscar will just enrage me.) Hopefully nothing exciting happens that makes me regret this decision!
Two movies I watched yesterday:
5. Trial by Jury, 1962
After I watched this I was reading about it on a Gilbert and Sullivan site, and apparently most G&S fans think this is their most perfect work. Uh, really? It had its moments but I was glad it was so short because I don't think I could've watched much more. D: It just wasn't that interesting? Obviously they should've added some pirates, I mean geeze.
6. Destination Tokyo, 1943
I happened to flip to TCM just as this was starting, and though WWII movies are hardly my favourite genre, it has both Cary Grant and Tokyo in it so I figured I'd at least watch the beginning. I ended up watching the whole thing and I actually really liked it! Uh, besides the propagandatastic racism. D: My favourite parts were probably the parts where the guys were just hanging out in the submarine, haha. And the part where everyone was so impressed with how the one dude's Japanese would fool even the Japanese. HAHA YEAH RIGHT that guy had the most non-native accent ever! xD;
