So, I heard Jon Stewart sucked. I heard the whole thing was bland and boring and all the wrong movies won. Is this true? I couldn't be bothered to watch it myself, only tuning in for Charleeze Theron's extra-dress-on-her-shoulder and lots of plush penguins. Honestly, that and Dustin Hoffman's stoned performance are all I saw. That and Mr. Stewart looking like he was thinking "Is it over yet?" with his Desperate Housewives crack.

A sports commentator made the suggestion, and I like it, that instead of traditional oscars we change the selection process to a playoff format. I like the idea. They can be seeded by nominating vote strength. You can do an award show every few days that only takes an hour and drag it out for 3 or 4 weeks! And it'd still be more interesting!

When does it scroll to a second page?

I know a & b are true, but one can hope.

I thought it rolled to a second page at 200, but apparently not. [livejournal.com profile] telepresence's thread about movies rolled to page 2 somewhere around that point.

Maybe it has to do with thread structure. More posts to the original? Longer threads? I have no idea.

I think it has to do with number of threads. I've seen posts roll to a second page at the 50-comment mark.

Ah, so we're talking too much about the same things. Got it!
