Yes, CNN will, just because of all the sour grapes they've had to eat because Glenn jumped to FOX from CNN. Those idiots in Atlanta didn't realize what they had.

Glenn's speech was great and just as fiery as Rush was last year.

Cheers, Frank

big difference between the Dear Reader and a good speaker who carries notes, a basic from high school speech class. Not many notes at all it seems.

A Koffee Klatch member, must be all kavinated. On second thought, sounds more like a DUmmy.

Dittos about A-Team, but the casting is suspect. Although Liam Neeson was great in Taken, can't see him in George Peppard's role of Hannibal Smith. And "Rampage" Jackson as BA? Could have done much better with that, maybe Michael Clarke Duncan.

A fine list indeed, Pam. You can also easily double the list by including Kurt Schlichter's list of his "Ten Films I’m Excited to See In 2010," with the possible exception of Shutter Island, which I may break down and go see. Or do you secretly yearn to watch "Hot Tub Time Machine?"

Kurt, not to dis you or anything, but to me it's a woefully average list, no WOW factors like Avatar (politics aside); closest was The Wolfman, until the pans that Jane referred to in her reply, not that I put any stock in "professional" movie reviewers. Next closest is Robin Hood, but how many versions of that have there been, of which "Men in Tights" was arguably the best.

I'm anticipating taking my grandson to Toy Story 3. I hadn't heard of The Last Airbender, but there may be some hope for this one b/c I can't see how MNS can set it in Philadelphia.

Cheers, Frank

No disrespect to Cinema Paradiso, and I'll probably find some way to watch it, but first looking at the poster photo, I was time-warped back to Leave it to Beaver.

The Lives of Others is worth a look IMO.

Many great performances listed, not a lot to argue with, which only validates that limiting a list to 10 is difficult, if not impossible.

For us Philip Seymour Hoffman fans, he was great in Capote, sure, but check him out also in 'Synecdoche, New York' and 'Before the Devil Knows You're Dead', great performances both.

No mention at all of Morgan Freeman. Yes, he's more in the Samuel L. Jackson everywhere mold (as is Hoffman to an extent) but he was great with Brad Pitt in 'Se7en', and who doesn't like 'Driving Miss Daisy'?

I consider Gary Oldman right behind Samuel L Jackson, you see him everywhere but nothing that really jumps out at you and says Whoa!.

My favorite Oldman performances are as the bad guy to Harrison Ford's president in 'Air Force One', and as Shelly Runyon in 'The Contender'.

Speaking of Samuel L. Jackson, he should get an award like you get in high school for perfect attendance. What movie hasn't he been in? That said, I have two words for you, 'Pulp Fiction'.

Which Shuster, the robot or the "real" Shuster? Methinks the human David's hair is more processed than the robot's.
