I am not a big Awards Show person. I imagine I'll watch some of the Oscars - but I never see any of the movies, so it's usually sort of boring for me.
I wish we lived closer - so you could drag me out to the movies every once in a while.
XOXOXOXOXOXO
As far as James Franco being gay - there have always been rumors. But any time an actor "plays gay", those rumors always surface. Case in point - Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger. In many cases - it's just wishful thinking.
It wouldn't surprise me if Franco was/is gay, but I'm not sure if he is or not.
I think Franco has said he is not gay, but since making the movie and promoting it he has talked incessantly about kissing Sean Penn.
Interesting, Bob. Sean Penn doesn't look that appealing to kiss, but maybe so.
Yes, David, I'd get you out to the movies with me and all kinds of places! We could also couch down with DVD's, take-out, and popcorn at my place! I wish I lived closer for many reasons!
