TV from the future
Our old favorites Fametracker have a great feature on future television shows based on this year's Oscar contenders for Best Picture (thanks Rungu for the alert.) It gets better as it goes on, ending with an outstanding Master and Commander, Mystic River, and a brilliant Seabiscuit. You know by now that we didn't fall all over ourselves for Mystic River, so I especially appreciated this parody of Sean Penn's character: "Markum, meanwhile, grows testy as he waits on a huge shipment of bottled water that's late for delivery to his store. Old tensions bubble to the surface when Devine and Powers commandeer an approaching delivery truck, prompting Markum to run from his store shouting, 'Is that my water in there!?! Sean -- is that my water in there!?!'"
