You know, I don't pretend to know or understand the personal lives of celebrities based on tabloid and media reports. And yet, all of my assumptions about Nicolas Cage were spot freaking on. Something about jets and dinosaurs and jewelry just fits. And I haven't even seen National Treasure. #nicolekidman
Maybe the Oscars will be entertaining this time around?
Alec Baldwin is hilarious. He was the best thing about "The Departed" along with Mark Walhberg. (I kinda forgot Leo was in it)
His new movie with Meryl Streep and Steve Martin looks very funny.
I'm still pissed about the change to nominate 10 pictures for Best Picture. I don't think the TV audience will be bigger just because the Hangover or whatever is nominated. #nicolekidman
@belle TL: I especially like it when I've actually gotten on the train, only to find that the train can't climb the track's minor uphill grade, or that the air conditioning has gone out in the middle of July, or that the train has "unexpectedly stalled." Ah, America's passenger rail systems, bringing out the worst in people for more than three decades. #nicolekidman
"I can't recall the last time I saw him — or Martin, for that matter — in a movie."
Dodai, consider yourself lucky to not be faced with watching Steve Martin in "The Pink Panther" 1 AND 2 and "Cheaper by the Dozen" 1 AND 2, more than once at the request of you kids.
He was in Baby Mama, though. I didn't think he was that funny but I liked the movie overall. #nicolekidman
@Little Green Frog (Wise Latina): !!Steve Martin is absolutely amazing and incredibly funny. Please, no one judge him by those films. Have you ever seen him play the banjo and sing? Or his material from when he was young?
I love him, he is one of my all-time favorite comedians. The Jerk, anyone? He also wrote a really great book on his early struggles to make it in comedy... #nicolekidman
@Eleanor Ramilly: Few people (that I know) would disagree with you about Steve Martin's early career.
But, even crazed fans of his early work (like myself) have to admit that his recent choices have been...sub-par.
Personally, I'll always adore the guy. And I think he and Alec Baldwin could make a good Awards Host team. Maybe Tina Fey can throw in some jokes - it worked on 3o Rock! #nicolekidman
@fluxus flucker: There you go. His early stand up was great. "Roxanne" is still funny.I love the essays in "Pure Drivel".
But this last few years... not so much. #nicolekidman
@fluxus flucker: Yeah, but c'mon. ... He's gotten older, he doesn't have the role options he used to, and people do love those Cheaper by the Dozen movies and I think The Pink Panther did well. And he was funny in The Pink Panther, I mean, about as funny as you can be in a movie like that? I liked Shop Girl, that was only three years ago.
And he is touring with his banjo now, so.. I think he's doing pretty well. #nicolekidman
@Little Green Frog (Wise Latina): I think he was in Baby Mama because, like all right-thinking Americans, Steve Martin is in love with Tina Fey.
I'm happy because (a) I think Steve Martin is a good Oscar host and (b) I expect Tina to get a few good moments during the ceremony due to cronyism. #nicolekidman
@Little Green Frog (Wise Latina): Wow, I just saw Steve Martin in September for and actors studio-style "Evening with.." and he specifically said he wasn't interested in hosting the Oscars again because he'd been there/done that. I wonder if working with Alec was the lure? #nicolekidman
@Eleanor Ramilly: One of my favorite things to watch when I'm down is The Muppet Show episode where Steve Martin hosts. Ah, Muppets and banjo playing Steve Martin!
I think Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin have potential to be great hosts. #nicolekidman
I would very much like to meet David Mamet. Not only does he write fantastic theater and film, but I'm curious to see if he repeats what he says several times like so many of his characters do. #nicolekidman
Actually, Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin will be in a movie together, which will have come out by the time the Oscars happen, so the pairing isn't so random:
@alexburrito: When I edit my post, the repost has a hashtag I haven't added. Oddly, in this case, it came up with the very strange N. Kidman hash tag. Anyone have an explanation on how that happens?? Weird. #nicolekidman
@alexburrito: I like that Nicole Kidman is now inexplicably and irrevocably linked to peeing in a cup in front of children. Many thanks to the wonders of the internet. #nicolekidman
Well, I thought Steve Martin absolutely killed when he hosted the Oscars a few years back, and Alec Baldwin always brings the funny to SNL and whatever talk show he appears on, so I think this could be really great. My only question is, is Lorne Michaels producing? Because they're like his favorite hosts ever. #nicolekidman
Pandora's Box, anyone?
I never even gave a thought to all the crap she must know about Tom Cruise until she brought it up. Now I am dying of nosiness. #nicolekidman
@TheUptightMidwesterner: Me too! He is such a peculiar man and Katie Holmes became a completely different human after she married him. I wish someone knew! #nicolekidman
