    Once we agree on a proper line sure, you can't have the field at even money though

    I heard Les Mis was Mis.

    So you want to just bet the worth as of January 1st 2013 which is 50 dollars? you don't actually want to get a share... and you are going to give me 3-1, or you want to lay me 3-1 on whatever value a share purchased on January 1st will be worth at the conclusion?

    OK, let me keep the shares, I believe in you Sep!

    I'm not totally sure of the betting terminology in the US so I put what I mean it in words.

    WE bet $50. I win, you pay me 50, you win I pay you $150. Is that me laying you 3-1?

    "Lincoln" was meh; Daniel Day Lewis was good but the story was boring, it wasn't artful and was entirely too long.

    "Argo" was good. I didn't think it was terribly special but the movie snobs drool over it. SImilar to "Frost Nixon" in feel.

    I really liked "Django" and I'm not a huge Tarantino fan but have really liked thos one and "Inglorious". Probably just because Christoph Waltz is god.

    Going to "Zero Dark Thirty" tomorrow.

    The Academy Awards is a pointless pageantry with flawed voting, much like baseball HOF.

    Saw Zero Dark 30 tonight. It was very good, but IMO will not win best picture. Not because it isn't worthy, but because I think the whole torture angle will be its downfall.

    Somehow I haven't seen Argo and I've been meaning to, only movie out of the group that I did see was Django. Likely it's the best film of the group but not a chance it wins.

    Just a hunch but I'd say the winner is between Argo and Lincoln

    LOL I had to look to make sure you weren't really expecting this.

    I think he mentioned he added that 50 to the loan he gave 408's GF, when he gave her the charity proceeds.
