Ducks and the Silver Screen

Sunday night is America’s Night at the Movies.  It’s the night when glamour meets art and Tommy Lee Jones celebrates with the industry that made him rich.

Nothing Says “Festive” Quite Like This

 

A look at some of the best picture nominees:

Silver Linings Playbook:  This movie is about a young man who comes unhinged at a football game.  We wouldn’t know anyone like that.

 

Life of Pi:  I don’t want to spoil the movie for you if you haven’t seen it.  Pi is either a kid, a tiger, a boat, or a dessert that needs ice cream in order to be valid.

This dessert has been ruled incomplete.

 

But when I was in school, pi was 3.14159265358979, otherwise known as the percentage chance that the Huskies will beat us in the upcoming football season.

 

May I Show You to Your Seat, Mr. Price?

 

Lincoln:  An epic saga of how one visionary leader, along with other like-minded people of good faith and noble intent, led a group of people out of the depths of bondage, sadness, and grief.

 

Phil Knight

 

AMOUR:  Yes we do.

 

New 2024 FishDuck Publishing Schedule….

During the off-season the FishDuck.com publishing schedule will consist of articles on Mondays and Tuesdays. Do keep checking as new articles could be published during the week when a writer has something to say.

In mid-August of 2024, we will go back to the seven-days-a-week of articles during the football season as we did in the football season of 2023.

The Our Beloved Ducks Forum (OBD) is where we we discuss the article above and many more topics, as it is so much easier in a message board format over there.  At the free OBD forum we will be posting Oregon Sports article links, the daily Press Releases from the Athletic Department and the news coming out every day.

Our 33 rules at the free OBD Forum can be summarized to this: 1) be polite and respectful, 2) do not tell anyone what to think, feel or write, and 3) no reference of any kind to politics. Easy-peasy!

OBD Forum members….we got your back.  No Trolls Allowed!
