29 Feb 2016: it's... a post-Oscars "Movie Monday"
« on: February 29, 2016, 08:03:37 AM »
A Leap Day set?  A day-after-Oscars "Movie Monday"?

ETA: rumor has it we're indeed getting a "Movie Monday"

Low expectations -- these movie sets tend to be the usual suspects (your Pulp Fiction, your Sat Nite Fever, various John Hughes sndtks).

Don Pardo --> "Goldfinger".  BOS and when you consider this didn't win (not even nominated!) but that mediocre Sam Smith thing *did*, well...

Indeed.  Since just about every movie ever made has music on its soundtrack, I'd really like to
see these sets confined to movies about music and/or musicians.  That would still leave a lot
of excellent material.

One of my all-time favorite movie moments.
