Partly because I think it is the best movie of the year and partly because it is Bean town based, I want The Departed to win everything it is nominated for. However, I find it quite amusing that both Marky Mark and The Fresh Prince (his 2^nd) got Oscar nominations. If the Fresh Prince wins, he would be remiss if he did not thank D.J. Jazzy Jeff. If Marky Mark wins, I think he should be accompanied onto the stage by the entire Funky Bunch, his brothers in Knew Kids On The Block, Maurice Star, and the bouncer who threw him out of Avalon back in the day.

Lets look back on the days when these 2 men first came into our lives:
