I’m thankful that Kate Winslet finally won an Oscar. I’ll be even more thankful when Amy Adams figures out she is in love with me and we can get married. I’m thankful for Tom Hanks, and am hoping he’ll get back to being good.

Thanks for Cary Grant, you’ve always been the perfect boyfrend substitute. Thank you Audrey Hepburn & Grace Kelly for your elegance and class. Thank you Paul Newman, for being perfect. Thank you for a billion other actors. Thanks for trailers, because the anticipation of a good movie is one of the best parts. Thank you for midnight showings and the shouting, clapping, booing people who attend them. Oh, and thank you for Christmas movies because really, they’re just awesome. And not the stupid ABC Family or Hallmark original ones either.

1. I’m thankful for Jason Isaacs and Mark Strong — they elevate any movie in which they have a role.
2. I’m thankful to Zack Snyder for taking a crack at Watchmen — in spite of its flaws it was an impressive endeavor, plus the movie led me to the book.
