You can't find the "off" button on your remote? Pity. That must lead to watching a lot of terrible infomercials at 2am.

I realize that. What I don't understand is the poster who bemoans "political correctness" because it results in these uppity black people being nominated for Oscars.

Cool, I love zombie movies, I'll have to check it out. Loved World War Z, action packed from start to finish. Hey, did you know there's a foreign film category with the Oscars?
Please let me know how you like Train to Busan as a fellow zombie fan.
