I can't ever remember being in Austin when it was this gloomy and grey. I like it. http://twitpic.com/qf0vt

@margaretlbrown: from my hotel room at the Hyatt
@AskDebruge: It was just too easy. Stil, there is praise for Precious that I'll concede,but can you really call it intellectually engaging?
@petertravers: ...but if you're a real stickler for the mind thing, better skip Precious.
I always forget to pack something, and on this trip it's a hairbrush. So I'll be rocking my best Helena Bonham Carter through Monday.
If you're in Austin, come see Impolex with @RangeLifeEnt tonight at the Dobie. I will be there.
Screenings for two of The Big Four secured. Just need Avatar and Nine. Oh, and Everybody's Fine!
Not to paraphrase My So-Called Life or anything, but Frontier of Dawn is so beautiful that it hurts to look at it.
@AskDebruge: nice! Very appropriate.
@alsolikelife: nothing wrong with that
the staff recs are still pushing summer/beach reads. (@ McNally Jackson Books in NYC) http://foursquare.com/venue...
Researching the Glenn Beck Christmas movie. Want to write about it, but is there anything to say other than, "Holy shit" ?
@alsolikelife: they have audio tracks where directors tell how they made the movie! in 10 years,laserdisc will kill film school #twitter1990
@ChrisThilk: aw, thanks.
@akivacrawl @alsolikelife: Ok. I will take the stance "it is serious. it takes itself seriously in a way that is distinctly retarded."
@Filmbrain: whoops. I forgot to go to that.
Metropolitan was great, but the guy who made it better follow it up quickly. Not exactly Criterion laserdisc material, right? #twitter1990
@alsolikelife: it's not my fave of the decade by a longshot, but we should do a #teambox podcast. Mostly because I don't get the Mars stuff.
@msicism: Sure. And both will probably make the final five.
@msicism: hey, I'm with you on both counts. And most of the docs I loved this year didn't screen enough to qualify for a nomination.
@sallitt @alsolikelife: the first band I remember as being classified as "emo" was Embrace, the missing link between Minor Threat & Fugazi.
@MarioAlegre: Eventually, the full list will be in TimeOut NY and a blurb about my favorite film on Salon.
Why didn't Tyson get shortlisted? Toback claims "extortion" (!) RT @thompowers: NYT on Oscars doc controversy: http://www.nytimes.com/2009...
Wrote 2 very short things this week re: my favorite film of 00s for 2 different outlets. Wondering if this precludes writing a long thing.
@crsryan: I wouldn't say I LOVED The Box, but I definitely appreciate it.
Frontier of Dawn at Anthology tonight As if The Red Shoes restoration didn't mess me up enough.

Will try to see a couple of movies today/nite,even though I'm exhausted, even though all I've done today is tweet and eat. #notfunemployment
