:laugh: :laugh:

I'm here! hahaha.

Stressing out about a few things to do with College and stuff, but I'm all good!

Serious time with Shine:

(Just for you, Princess)

The weather in England is awful! It's so darn cold, luckily I have nothing to do so I can just sit around with the heating full blast all day.

If Johnny Depp is single, I can pounce on him, then get Leo's number then party on down.

The Concordia is a total tragedy, but shouldn't be compared to the Titanic as it has been in the media :ninja:

This has been, serious time with Shine.

OMG! I just found MY Identical sarcastic twin :clap::laugh:

:laugh: :chicken: WOOOOO! SARCASM TWINS!

I've gotta say his performance in this one definitely disproves Kirk Lazarus' theory that you can never go "full retard." It seems Leo did and it paid off.

I'm adoring the Kirk Lazarus/Tropic Thunder reference.

I agree with everyone, he is very deserving of it. I'll be honest, I think he is actually few of the actors these days who do deserve it... but he doesn't need a shiny gold statue to tell him how good of an actor he is! He's outstanding, he knows it, the world knows it... it'd be so incredible if he could get one and I'm 100% he'll receive one in lifetime and I have everything crossed in hoping he will, but I don't like the way people are thinking it's the 'be all and end all' of acting. It isn't, I'm not surprised he didn't get a nomination just for the fact... well, I know the track record of "the academy and Leo". I feel like I'm talking out of my ass right now, but I doubt he's going home crying himself to sleep every night then waking up and crying into his waffles and coffee over the fact he hasn't won one yet. I'm guessing he is gutted which I would be too, but the way the internet and media are going on, they're making out he'll be in an insane asylum in a few years time in a straight jacket, rocking backwards and forwards in a fucking corner and banging his head against a padded wall whaling over how he hasn't got an Oscar. He has nothing to be ashamed of because he hasn't won one, doesn't make him any less of an actor. Wow, I just read that back and it sounds as if I'm saying he'll never get one. Which I'm not. I don't really know how to end this rant. So erm, picture Jack Dawson. That is all.

I also have a feeling I may be alone in saying all of that... :ninja:

...

I may need shelter from the abuse that may come my way if someone shouts at me for being such a bitch, because that's how I kind of feel right now :laugh:

You are not alone Shine! Be sure of this! :laugh: And that's the reason why I feel sorry for him...they are judging him by a simple role in the past...Jack Dawson.

Carmen Sandiego...helps us to find Leo! :laugh:

You don't know how glad I am to hear that, ha ha! I was expecting someone to disagree and argue with me.

I'm angry too, at personal things. So I feel like I'm saying a bunch of stuff out of anger, but I'm also sick of just hearing it in general. The day of nominations and I can't be fecked with it all! :laugh:

WHERE IN CARMEN SANDIEGO IS LEONARDO?!

From L.A. Times

On a cold, wet afternoon two cowboys trudge across a muddy street in a western town carrying saddles on their backs as a loud speaker blasts Jim Croce's hit song "I got a Name." The scene was being played out at the historic Melody Ranch in Santa Clarita , where director Quentin Tarantino was filming his upcoming western "Django Unchained," starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Jamie Foxx.

"It's a blast shooting here," Tarantino said in a break from shooting. "Most other western towns look like dollhouses. This has the complete look. It's fantastic

There are about 10 movie ranches in the Santa Clarita area that have become increasingly busy with production, providing a big boost to the local economy. The mostly privately-owned ranches are hosting a wide range of productions, from westerns like "Django" to beer and truck ads for the upcoming Super Bowl and a soon-to-shoot scene set in Afghanistan for the HBO series "True Blood."

The Santa Clarita Valley, which dubs itself Hollywood North, had a record year for film production last year with a 15% increase in shooting production days.

Some of the ranches are expanding. Walt Disney Co. is preparing to build a dozen soundstages on the Golden Oak Ranch, a prime location for such classics as "Old Yeller," "The Apple Dumpling Gang" and more recent releases such as "The Muppets" and "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End."

Tarantino's "Django," a story about a slave turned bounty hunter, is among many productions -- including TV shows such as FX's "Justified," and ABC's game show "Wipeout" -- that regularly shoot on ranches in the Santa Clarita area in northern Los Angeles County.

Although most of the ranches are in the county and outside the city limits, they have become vital contributors to Santa Clarita’s growing film industry, which already is home to several soundstages and TV shows, such as the CBS series "NCIS," the TBS comedy "Franklin & Bash," and two ABC family shows, "Jane by Design" and "Make It or Break It."

The city views the ranches as key to the long-term growth of the industry and recently approved a new zoning designation that makes it easier for owners of ranches in the city limits to host filming and to build soundstages and other production-related facilities on their property.

"The movie ranches are very film-friendly and they help keep Santa Clarita top of mind for location managers who are considering a place to film," said Russell Sypowicz, film office administrator for Santa Clarita.

The ranches are popular among filmmakers for several reasons. They offer wide open spaces -- one boasts more than 800 acres -- that can accommodate large crews and enable filmmakers to shoot in one location without the cost and hassle of filming in residential neighborhoods. They also have diverse terrains, from mountains to oak groves and lakes to desert landscape, enabling them to double for locations as diverse as Afghanistan and Virginia.

The ranches are located within the so-called 30-mile studio zone from West Hollywood, which determines the rates and work rules for union workers. Filmmakers like to stay within the zone because shooting outside the radius is more expensive.

In addition, each of the ranches offers something different and many have ready-made sets catering to certain types of movies or scenes.

Melody Ranch, which opened as Monogram Studios in 1915, has long been famous for its western sets and hosts an annual Santa Clarita Cowboy Festival. The original western town was burned down in a fire in 1962. The Veluzat family bought the property from Gene Autry two decades ago and restored the ranch, which now has 74 buildings and two sound stages.

The western town is popular for movies, especially westerns, but also commercials, including Super bowl commercials recently shot by Budweiser and Dodge. "The town has been pretty busy," Renaud Veluzat said.

He and his brother Andre also own another ranch in Santa Clarita that is known for its Spanish town.

A third Veluzat brother, Rene, owns the 100-acre Blue Cloud Movie Ranch in Saugus that specializes in military settings, with an Afghanistan-town set that is so real the U.S. military uses it for training purposes. The ranch also has a full-scale army camp and 50 military vehicles, including tanks, Humvees and helicopters.

A former stuntman and actor, Rene Veluzat bought the ranch in 2000. He says he booked 70 shows and nearly $1 million in revenue last year, renting his property to crews for such TV shows as "Touched" and "Chuck" and the low-budget war movie "Battle Force."

"I get 50 phone calls a day," Veluzat said." I’m booked up into March."

The sprawling Golden Oak Ranch, which spans more than 800 acres, recently built a business district set with 42 stores and a residential street with 13 houses, each with a different architectural style, according to its website.

A few miles east off Placerita Canyon Road is the much smaller A Rancho Deluxe, a 200-acre movie ranch started by Steve Arklin, who sold his sanitation business and used the proceeds to buy the ranch in the mid-1980s. Initially, his goal was to earn enough money to pay taxes on the property.

His Sand Canyon ranch, which includes an artificial lake, Mediterranean villa, cabins and a western town surrounded by mountains has attracted 10 productions in the last two months alone, among them a salsa commercial, the TV show "Bones" and an upcoming Rob Zombie movie called "Lords of Salem."

"If I can pay my taxes and my kids earn a living out of it -- that’s a good thing," said Arklin, who runs the business with his two sons.

Cute, :wub:

When Kate Winslet is happy to see someone, she’s not shy about it. As soon as Leonardo DiCaprio walked through the door, his “Titanic” costar gave him a full-body hug, then jumped up and wrapped her legs around his waist, so that the old buddies looked like a pitcher and catcher who’d just won the world series.
