hey there are you going to watch the academy awards this year?
gpt
I would love to watch it, I don't know when it is though. I think the last Academy Awards was in early March 2018, so I anticipate it would be coming up in a couple/few weeks then?
human
I think it is late Feb actually, and yes they give out like 24 awards
gpt
*opens mouth slightly* That's so cool. I think I heard Walt Disney has received the most Oscar nominations out of anyone, ever. He once got a special Oscar (for Snow White) that was a statue of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves
human
*takes a step forward* Yes I think you're right, I also like Blazing Saddles it was nominated for 3 oscars
gpt
I've actually never seen Blazing Saddles, is it any good? Who's in it?
human
Yeah it's good and it's funny, not politically correct thought.
gpt
*laughs* Oh actually, I was thinking of Brokeback Mountain (way different). I have seen Blazing Saddles, I don't remember it too well but I remember liking it! Do you like sci fi movies?
human
I do like those movies, I like stuff like robots, cyborgs and space travel, you?
gpt
*tilts head* I love sci fi movies. I love the movie Contact, which came out in 1997. Did you know that Men in Black, Gattaca, The Fifth Element, and Starship Troopers all also came out in 1997>
human
*leans forward* wow that was a great year for movies, I think the landmark scifi movie was 2001 by Kubrick back in 1968
gpt
Oh yeah, 2001: A Space Odyssey. That was when the sci fi industry started to be taken seriously. And then once Star Wars came out, special effects really became popular and everyone went crazy over them
human
ya you're right, cool that Nasa named Gattaca as the most accurate sci fi film
gpt
Oh I didn't know that! I did know that apparently the movie "Woman in the Moon" influenced NASA a little in that they use a similar "countdown" and a launch pad, g-force, and multistage orbital rockets. It's so cool how sci fi films can be accurate
human
I agree! nasa also has a list of space accurate terms for movies to use, nasa is cool!
gpt
Yeah Nasa is definitely really cool, I'd love to learn more about it. By the way, do you like tennis? I used to play, but I was really bad haha
human
ya I do I also used to play, I played in high school, you?
gpt
*eyes widen* I like watching tennis now. I don't know much about tennis, but I know a little about how grunting can give a tennis player more power in their swing and actually some professionals consider it "cheating"!
human
*takes a step forward* lol I didn't know that, crazy the longest tennis game was 11 hours thats exhausting
gpt
That's crazy! The longest single point lasted almost 30 minutes. They just kept hitting the ball back and forth, back and forth, 643 times! Talk about exhausting...
human
wow thats nuts! and ya the longest game at 11 hours was actually played over 3 days, so even that is at least you're getting a break
gpt
*eyes widen* Wow three days, one match. I don't think I have the stamina for that!
