Catch the Captain!

I'll be taking to the airwaves again this weekend, appearing on John Strauss' show on WIBC this Sunday to talk about summer movies. We'll explore some of the wannabe blockbusters out there waiting for us, and discuss the buzz -- good or bad -- surrounding the notables.

My spot will be a little after 11 a.m. on WIBC, that's 93.1 on your FM dial.

Tune in!

It's Oscar day!

The day is finally here. Will "Slumdog Millionaire" really win Hollywood's top prize? I'm not sure if people realize what a bold move this would be by the Academy -- feting a movie made by British filmmakers, set in India, with Muslim characters and a Bollywood feel. Never before has a film with such a distinct international pedigree fought its way to the top.

Just a couple of reminders on how the Captain is working to make your Oscar experience more enjoyable:

If you didn't catch me on WFYI with Matthew Socey and Lou Harry on Friday, you'll get a couple more chances to hear me size up the potential award winners this morning. I'll be visiting with John Strauss on WIBC at around 9:10 a.m., and it will be repeated during the 11 o'clock hour. That's 93.1 on your FM dial.

Then, starting around 8 p.m. tonight, I'll be live-blogging the Oscar ceremony. Tune in here for minute-by-minute observations and snark as the greatest night in movies unfolds!
