And We're Back

While it seems a bit cavalier to not address the shooting, my experience then and coming back, it's just something I don't think I can articulate here, so while I missed most of the Oscars because of the memorial service, I choose to discuss my movie watching of late.

I did manage to watch all of the films up for Best Picture, not too much else besides, and after careful consideration, I've come to the conclusion that I preferred There Will Be Blood to No Country For Old Men. And the internet, in terms of the IMDB top 250 list, agrees with me! TWBB is number #30 compared to NCFOM's #41 placement.

In honor of my preference, and the fact that this makes me giggle upon every re-reading, I give you a list (technically a link to a list) from McSweeney's of "Other Things There Will Be, In Addition to Blood."

The list made me giggle, too. Nice one.
