The Scorecard Review

It’s not a waste of time, but perhaps instead a way to pass it.

From Adam Fendelman’s HollywoodChicago.com – a partner with TSR – comes exclusive pics from the Chicago International Film Festival.

Academy Award nominee Viggo Mortensen posed for a HollywoodChicago.com red-carpet portrait on Oct. 29, 2008 prior to receiving a career achievement award at the U.S. premiere of “Good” on the closing night of the 2008 Chicago International Film Festival.

Just 12 days before we decided who will be the next President of the United States. And now Ron Howard isn’t just sitting on the sidelines.

But he’s not alone.

I wish I was in the meetings or listening on the phone when Howard approached Henry Winkler and Andy Grittith.

I mean, I feel like he, even more than the two of them, has distanced himself from the iconic characters of Opie and Richie.

Did they both just immediately respond, “You’re willing to do what?!”

Great effort by Opie Cunningham.

Every week (Wednesday or Thursday), look for a new article titled “Box Office Preview” followed by the Friday date.

There you will get a chance to see what films are coming out that weekend, who reviewed the films from our staff and also play TSR’s Top 5 Box Office Challenge .

Jeff Bayer and the rest of the staff will compete to see who correctly predicts the order of the top films for that weekend.

#1 at the box office = 5 points
2 = 4 points
3 = 3 points
4 = 2 points
5 = 1 point

So if you guessed the #1, and the #3 films, that would be 8 points.

Your goal: Try to beat us.

About a week ago, I tried to find a decent guide to the Fall TV season. It couldn’t be done, and Entertainment Weekly hadn’t completed their Fall TV issue yet, so I was lost.

Now I am found. The TV Addict designed a nice, printable guide to the Fall 2008 TV season.

I am shocked to learn that I have to wait until October 30, 2008 for the first “30 Rock” episode. And I assume I have to watch “Friday Night Lights” online this season since I don’t have DirecTV. Perhaps someone will explain.

Anyway, I fully believe their is more to life than movies, and the TV Addict clearly understands.

We didn’t invent this list. We just agree with it … for the most part.
