Im jeff glor with Kristine Johnson of our new york station wcbs. Charlie rose, norah odonnell, and gayle king are off today. Legal troubles have caught up with bill cosby. Hes free on bail in a Sexual Assault case. The criminal charges are the first against the man once known as americas dad. This year, dozens of women accused him of past sexual misconduct. Theresa duncan is in elkins park, pennsylvania, just north of philadelphia. Good morning. Reporter good morning. The arraignment lasted less than ten minutes. Bill cosby appeared composed while he was in that courtroom. He paid the required 10 of his 1 million bail and was ordered to turn over his passport. With two attorneys at his side, bill cosby carefully stepped out of a black suv wednesday to Face Criminal Charges of Sexual Assault. Mr. Cosby, do you want to say anything . Reporter gripping a cane, the 78yearold stumbled on the curb as he was led into the courthouse in elkins park, pennsylvania. The accusations date back to 2004, when Andrea Constand says cosby drugged and sexually assaulted her in his pennsylvania home. According to the 23page complaint, cosby gave her three blue pills he claimed were herbal, and within a half hour, constand says she experienced blurred vision and difficulty speaking. Mr. Cosby urged her to take pills that he provided to her and to drink wine. The effect of which rendered her unable to move or respond to his advances. Reporter constand stated she awoke the next morning partially undressed. Cosby gave her a muffin, walked to the front door, opened it, and said, all right. At the time the District Attorney said there was not enough evidence to charge cosby. In 2005, constand filed a civil suit, which was later settled privately. But this past july, investigators decided to reopen the case after a judge unsealed portions of depositions in which cosby admitted to giving drugs to at least one woman. Constands attorney asked cosby, when you got the quaaludes, was it in your mind that you were going to use these quaaludes for young women that you wanted to have sex with . Cosby replied, yes. He later said he misunderstood the question. Monique presley is cosbys attorney. Its sad for his legal team, for his family, that he would be dragged into this. Were 12 years after an alleged assault that was fully investigated. Reporter for Victoria Valentine k valentino, one of 50 women who have accused cosby, its validation. It means people have been link listening to us and hearing us. Reporter cosby only shook his head at reporters as he left the courthouse yesterday. With cameras and helicopters following his every move, he was taken to a local jail to be fingerprinted and booked. Hes due back in court for a preliminary hearing next month. If convicted, he could spend up to ten years in prison and face a 25,000 fine. Thank you very much. Cosbys attorney Monique Presley is with us from washington. Ms. Presley, thank you for being with us. Good morning. What was your clients reaction when you heard he was being charged . This didnt come as any surprise to us. Weve been cooperating with the Montgomery County d. A. s office. They are saying theres significant evidence in this testimony that was unsealed by the judge. Everyone can see that testimony. Your network has had it available as well as all others. You know that this was deposition testimony that was the subject of a confidentiality agreement and what is supposed to be remain sealed, not just the portions that were improperly released based on the judges decision, judge robreno. But also the information illegally gained through the release of a Court Reporter to a media entity, the entire deposition is out there. There is nothing in that deposition where mr. Cosby admits to committing any crime. In fact he denies it vehemently and speaks specifically with respect to this incident. However he does admit to buying quaaludes to use on women, obtaining these im jeff glorh obt women. How are you going to defend that in court . Why would we have to defend that in court . Thats an admission that he makes about offering quaaludes to two specific individuals in the 1970s. Ten years ago, quaaludes werent even being made anymore. They are literally off the market. Its not something that could even be obtained. Im certain even this hungry d. A. Isnt going to assert that mr. Cosby has hiding in his medicine cabinet quaaludes that are 30, 40, 50 years old, and that thats what was offered to ms. Constand. More than 50 women have accused your client of similar acts regarding Sexual Assault. Thats incorrect. More than 50 women have not accused my client of similar acts. Its easy for people like yourselves to say that more than 50 women have done that. But that is not true. Well, 50 women have come forward and publicly stated through the press that mr. Cosby allegedly sexually assaulted them, many of them have the exact same stories. How do you plan to defend that in court or will you try to stop that from being admissible in court . It certainly isnt admissible in court. But again, 50 women have not come forward and said they had the exact same story. Someone saying that he rubbed against them or the front of their breasts at a party is not the same thing as saying that they were in an ongoing consensual adult relationship and then one evening, after multiple interactions, i believe i was drugged. Those arent the same thing. What this d. A. Has to do is prove the facts of this case. But ms. Presley, as you know, the prosecutors could persuade the judge to allow evidence from other cases into this one. You have to be prepared for that. There arent previous other cases. What you mean there are allegations, as you know. And a wide range of allegations, as you know. Yes, and those are all allegations for which theres no corroborating evidence, allegations from decades ago, allegations from women who never bothered to go in and make a complaint to police. And in most instances claimed they didnt tell another living soul. If a judge chooses to consider from a prosecutor such testimony, then we will deal with that at that time. He took a cane with him to court. Is his Current Health status part of your defense . His Current Health status doesnt have anything to do with the defense for this unsubstantiated charge. Hes a 78yearold blind man who they have chosen to charge. Thats not a defense to a crime. Thats just a fact. Monique presley, thank you very much. The mother of the texas teenager involved in the socalled affluenza case is back in the u. S. Tonya couch landed at los angeles airport overnight. Shes accused of fleeing the country with her fugitive son. Ethan couch was on probation after a deadly drunk driving crash. Hes still in mexico. Ben tracy is at l. A. X. With a look at the legal maneuvers delaying his return. Ben, good morning. Reporter good morning. Mother and son were separated in new mexico when tonya couch was deported back to the united states. She arrived here at l. A. X. Early this morning. When she did, she had plenty of company. Handcuffed and flanked by u. S. Marshals, tonya couch was escorted out of Los Angeles International airport early this morning. Her son ethan left behind in mexico. Video from cbs dallas station ktvt appears to show the 18yearold clad in a dark baseball hat and coat, being moved to a larger immigration facility in mexico city. On monday, mexican immigration officials detained the pair, calling for their deportation. According to u. S. Marshals, the mother and son obtained local representation, who filed a protection order called an appeal. Its a request that the court issue an order to stop the proceedings. Reporter mexican officials deported tonya couch for being in the country illegally, while ethan is going through a more complicated deportation process that could keep him there for several weeks. The couches have legal counsel. It seems to me if they wanted to, they could pay as much money as they wanted to to drag this out. Reporter Surveillance Video captured the pair in Puerto Vallarta before they were taken into custody. Couch filled four people in a young driving accident in 2013. His defense argued that he suffered from the controversial condition affluenza, claiming his lack of responsibility was a result of his privileged up bringing. A judge sentenced him to probation. Hes expected to serve time in a juvenile city until april, when he turns 19. Welcome to juvenile law in texas. It doesnt make sense. Reporter ethan couch will likely remain in mexico for at least a couple of weeks. He was just granted an injunction against his deportation, which will allow him to remain in that country. Ben, thank you very much. Parts of the midwest are under mandatory evacuation orders this morning ahead of historic flooding. Already the rising water is blamed for at least 20 deaths in missouri and illinois. Rivers are cresting today at record levels. More than a dozen levees are threatened. Anna werner is south of st. Louis where flooding just closed a major highway. Anna, good morning to you. Reporter good morning. As you just said, a major highway has been shut down. Interstate 55 through st. Louis shut down by officials early this morning because theres several feet of water over that highway. That leaves one route with all these roads shut down, one remaining route from one county to another for People Living in this area. This water back here, compared to what we were dealing with yesterday, this is a lot more water. What you are seeing is this is the Meramec River coming in and flooding this area. And whats happening is, there are many neighborhoods just like this one where people had to evacuate as the waters rise higher than before. In fenton, raging waters washed away this home. In st. Louis last night, cars slogged through a flooded i55, as the Meramec River swelled, traffic on the interstate was backed up for miles. There was nowhere you could go. Its water, but if theres enough of it, you cant do anything. Reporter the levels have not been seen in 30 years. The flooding has killed more than a dozen people in missouri, submerging homes, bridges, and prompting dozens of rescues. Theyre our homes. Theyre my neighbors. Weve done everything we can and we still cant beat it. Reporter in arnold, theyre preparing for the worst flooding this area has ever seen. But their efforts may not be enough. Were to the point now that the sandbagging, its not going to hold it back. Were going to lose probably anywhere from 100 to 150 homes that will be affected by this flood, if not more. Reporter along the banks of the meramec, in valley park, more than 300 families were ordered to evacuate because the water could breach a levee. The Severe Weather has killed another five people in oklahoma. In the carolinas, floodwaters have torn through roads and forced swift water rescues and evacuations. Now, this morning the National Weather service is reporting that the Meramec River, which is the one flooding this area, has actually crested in another part close to here called valley park. Thats good news for the People Living in that area. But the Mississippi River has yet to crest. Flooding continues in many areas. And Officials Say it could be several days before the flooding recedes and life can go back to normal. Anna werner, we hope for the best. Thank you. New years celebrations are under way on the other side of the world. Fireworks lit up the sky above auckland, new zealand when 2016 arrived just a short time ago. Its one of the first countries in the world to usher in the new year. Security is tight in new york citys times square. A Million People or more will gather there to watch the ball drop tonight. And security is also higher than usual across europe due to fears of terrorism. Brussels even called off the new years eve fireworks show. Elizabeth palmer is tracking a threat from london. Elizabeth, good morning. Reporter good morning. Thats right, things are already gearing up here in london for the big celebration tonight. Thats decidely not the case in brussels, where prosecutors have announced theyve detained six people in connection with a suspected plot to attack the new years celebrations. Workers had no sooner built the stage for the traditional fireworks display than it was taken down again. The expected crowd of tens of thousands was judged just too big a risk. After the arrest on tuesday of two men suspected of planning a terrorist attack on the new years eve celebrations. And this morning, as soldiers were out and on patrol in public areas, there was news of yet another arrest in the brussels suburb of molenbeek, linked to the terrorist attacks in november. It was home to salah abdeslam, the one attacker still on the run. Belgiums steppedup security is a sign that police are working to disrupt the terrorist attack networks. The capital is tense. That dont mean people wont come together to ring in the new. This man manages a brussels nice club. I really believe the people from brussels need to go out and party and gather, to bond together. Reporter and ken kinsella agrees. Its buckling to the threat of terrorism. We should stand up to them. Reporter in paris, where the memory of the attacks is still fresh, a planned fireworks display has been cancelled. Thousands are expected to come out anyway, according to tradition, to welcome in the new year on the champs elysee. Theyll be out here in london too, 100,000 people will be standing right where i am a few hours from now to welcome 2016.

It is the first criminal charge filed against him. Cosby is accused of drugging and groping a woman in 2004. The 78yearold seemed frail as he made his way into court on wednesday. He carried a cane and stumbled on a curb. Cbs news legal expert Rikki Klieman is with us now. She is a former prosecutor and a defense attorney. Good morning. Good morning. We heard his defenseton pretty much shrug off the issue about obtaining the quaaludes that he admitted in his deposition, said that she didnt need to defend that. Do you agree with that . I think what you have in his defense lawyers are great lawyers who are really fierce advocates and doing what they should be doing now. When you look at the quaalude issue, the deposition that became public in july from a civil case brought by this complaining witness, this alleged victim Andrea Constand, does not say that he sexually assaulted her by the use of drugs. What it does say is that he did get quaaludes to use with women for sex. Now, that takes us in a whole, what the lawyers would call a frolic of their own. That is not a facetious comment but a lawyer comment. Because back in the 70s and 80s, quaaludes were often used by consenting adults so that is what this lawyer is talking about. However, i think the quaaludes are least of anyones worries when defending bill cosby today because there is so much else that the cosby lawyers have got to attempt to keep out of evidence, and what about all those prospective jurors have heard 40 or 50 men allege some kind of sexual conduct. Is that an issue . I think its an issue because you have to have people who have not heard of this or people who simply say ive heard about all of this but i can cast it aside. It is very hard to cast aside the notion that there are 40 or 50 other women out there. It even came up in your interview with the lawyer, because the vast majority of the public believes that all of these other alleged victims are people who suffered exactly the same fate that this woman, Andrea Constand, said she suffered, even though the details may be different. And, by the way, the devil is in the details here. So youre a defense lawyer in this case. If you are the defense lawyer, what do you have to do . 2016 is going to be the year of motions in this case. The defense has got to be fast and furious and slow and deliberate all at the same time. Every single thing that they do not want in this case, they have got to go to the court early and say keep it out. Try the numbers. Only what happened between Andrea Constand and bill cosby. One of the things that makes this case so interesting two cases here. The wider umbrella case with all of the allegations from all of the other women and the particulars of this case. Monique presley doesnt want to talk about any other women right now. Of course, she doesnt. The question is how much do they have to . The real question is how this judge will rule. A conservative judge would like to get a conviction that does not get reversed on appeal. So will a conservative judge say im keeping out what we call all of the prior bad acts and all of the other alleged victims and only let that in should mr. Cosby testify, or will a more open judge say, hey, its a common scheme plan and its all going in. My suspicion we may be talking to you more about this case in 2016. Im keeping the file. Rikki klieman, thank you very much. Happy new year. Happy year. Activists are applauding a new law signed by president obama this week. It outlaws microbeads that are used in personal care products. Demarco morgan shows us how the particles making us clean are making the rivers dirty. Reporter it is known as the microbead free water asked and passed congress by bipartisan support and to eliminate tiny plastics many of us use every day. Microbeads are tiny pieces of plastics found in many health and Beauty Products including soap and body scrub and toothpaste and used to exfoliate or add polish. They are are a big concern for environmental scientists. They say the tiny particles are a source of ocean and lake pollution. We know the fish from our great lakes is in their bodies and ts going back tour face and body. Reporter he found microbeads in the San Francisco bay and in high concentrations in the great lakes. Not all Water Treatment plants are able to filter them out. They are absorbing industrial chemicals, pest sides from farms and even oil drops from cars will stick to these micro plastics and microbeads. At that point, they can enter the food chain. Reporter a single cosmetic product can contain up to 300,000 nonbiodegradable microbeads. In september they were banned. Assembly member is thrilled that congress is following californias lead. Its very significant, because youre going to have 50 states doing the same thing. I have no doubt that this is going to spread now to other countries and the longer we have these pollutants in the environment, the harder it is to take action to effectively clean up after them. Reporter the law passed surprisingly quickly but not immediate. The new federal law prohibits the manufacture of products of microbeads july 1st, 2016. I read that microbeads can cover a tennis court daily. These products are all over the place. But i do like them. Therapy great for the skin. Something wrong with everything.

Chip reid is traveling with the president in honolulu. Chip, good morning.

And Jerry Seinfeld says the president has delivered just enough funny lines to qualify. You ready . I got some stuff to do. Reporter if you were expecting a conversation percolating with domestic and foreign policy. Well, thats just not Jerry Seinfelds brand. Are these washed . A lot. Lets go. Lets go get some coffee. Reporter not that theres anything wrong with that. I do really well with the zero to 8 demographic. Oh, really . Oh, yeah, definitely. Partly because my ears are a little bit big and i look a little bitlike a cartoon character. And little kids wont say my name, but its all one big name. Its barackobama. Jerry wasnt the only one with an american muscle car. You dont have this here. Its a cool feature. Reporter a leader of the comedy world strolls the white house grounds with the leader of the free world and like the coffee, the conversation flowed. How far can you wanter around up there in your underwear . How far can you get before theres like people and its not cool . Its not cool generally wandering around in my underwear. First night, and were sleeping in the white house. Right. Its not like a hotel room. So youre looking around, youre like, what the hell is this, right . Now its a museum. Thats how it feels for probably the first week. Reporter the 61yearold comedian pulled back the curtain on the 44th commander in chief with a surprisingly candid conversation. How many World Leaders do you think are just completely out of their mind . A pretty sizable percent. You know, you eve made like a ridiculous amount of money. So much more than you. And yet, how do i seem to you . Do i seem spoiled . Out of touch . Well, i dont know. You have a pretty good instinct for people. Right now you seem like a completely normal guy. Im putting on an act, just like everybody else does for you. Thats my point. Watch out people. And when youre at the president s house, its only polite to let him drive. I like the hand hanging over the wheel. I mean, you got to do that. You cant be doing that. Im and appreciably cooler than i was two minutes ago. Reporter usually when the president does quirky tv shows, he squeezes in a plug for his health care law, but he does very little of that.

So here we are in the bowels of the space needle. Its about to open this door, which apparently is going to take us outside. Only a handful of people have ever been allowed out here.

Reporter they use this platform to do routine maintenance. I tried to simply maintain my lunch. They call this the halo of the space needle. Its 520 feet off the ground anand it is one of the best views in all of seattle but lets be honest. Most people wont be out here and wont let you out here any way. You can now have this experience and this view thanks to technology. We are ready. Please go. Reporter these experts at aerial and panoramic photography are capturing the thrill of the halo walk without the vertigo. Michael frantz creating the space needles Virtual Reality pieces and end up as an app. Today we use array of six cameras all pointing out in a different direction. What we will do is then take all of those, put them into a Software Program and ditch it all together and create a unique experience. Reporter using one of these viewfinder, you can see the halo walk while keeping your feet on the ground. You not only get the sensation of Walking Around it, but you look down and its as if youre looking down at the ground. Yes, that is exactly it. We want to give people an experience of somewhere that they cant get. Reporter and trust me, this is one walk where you may prefer the virtual version to the reality.

Millions of us this morning are deciding what changes to make in the coming year. But Research Shows that 36 of the people will break their new years rgs esolutions by the enf january and 56 by the end of july. How do we set ourselves up for success with the odds stacked against us . The New York Times science columnist john tierney is author of willpower. Thank you for joining us. You say we start out with the best of intentions but with the worst of strategies. How do we do this . People, too often, overdo it and they overestimate their own wi willpower. The first bit of advice is make one new years resolution and focus on that and after you do that, do neighbor something else. Maybe i dont want to lose ten pounds but maybe one pound a week . You should set specific goals instead of saying i want to save money or i want to lose weight, exactly say that i want to save 200 a month and one pound a week. After you set that one very clear specific goal, you have to monitor yourself. That is really as important as setting the goal. So that if you want to spend less money, keep track of it every week. If you want to lose weight, get on the scale every day. That is one of the few clinically proven ways for losing weight. Baby steps . Exactly. If you overestimate your own willpower can you get help from other people . Does that help . Outsourcing and selfcontrol and controlling your willpower is the key. Science used to think willpower was a metaphor. What they found is really is this form of Mental Energy and it gets depleted as you exert selfcontrol and resist temptation and gets depleted as you make decisions. There is a condition called a decision fatigue and that is we wrote about it in our book. Two executives, barack obama and Mark Zuckerberg of facebook, they both resolve to try to try to eliminate small decisions from their lives so they both started wearing the same thing to work every day. One of them would wear a dark suit and the other would wear a gray tshirt. You compartmentalize . Exactly. By eliminating those decisions that leaves them with more energy with more willpower for the rest of the stuff in their lives. We can learn from people who have good selfcontrol because they use less willpower. Exactly. When they track people throughout the day they found the most disciplined people use less willpower than other people because they structure their lives to avoid temptations. They dont go all you can eat buffets or keep a bowl of candy under their desk. All of us can do that. Instead of getting up every morning and deciding whether or not youre going to work out, you can schedule a workout with your friends and then that way you have to show up to do it and its not a decision that leaves you with a little more willpower or go to bed in your workout clothes. You wake up and you have to go exactly. You talk about candy. One experiment that you mentioned that test peoples willpower with a bowl of m ms. What happened . Some were told they couldnt have any m ms at all and some said you can have these and just not now. A clever experiment they did the experiment and left them in the bowl afterwards and thinking the experiment was over. They found people who had told themselves im not going to have it now but i can have it later, those people were the best at resisting the m ms because that is a strategy when the dessert cart comes around, you know . Right. Dont say im never having that again. Just say not tonight, ill have it the next time. Maybe one bite if you can hold back, right . Yes. You say that social media and online roesources can be helpfu for people. Keeping track of yuourself i one thing but a lot of appears that will do the grunt work for you. You can post results at facebook groups and people are watching what you do. You can tweet stuff. Great appears on a website called the quantified self that will monitor how many steps you take and how many calories youre burning and then websites you can actually post your new years resolution and have someone monitor it for you and there could be a financial penalty when you lapse. The point is that youre putting it out there. Right. Youre saying, okay, im going to do this and then you sort of feel like, boy, if i dont do it im disappointing a lot of people. Have you people enforcing and they are using their willpower to make you do something and youre outsourcing that selfcontrol. Do you have a resolution . Oh, please. My list is like 50. Just one, just one just one next 15 minutes we will all come up with our resolution. Can we meet back here next year to see how we do . Fail. John tierney, thank you for joining us. Block busters are packing theaters but smaller movies are generating the oscar buzz. Ok, were here. Heres dad. Mom. The twins. Aunt alice. You didnt tell me aunt alice was coming. Of course. Dont forget grandpa. Can the test drive be over now . Maybe just head back to the dealership . Dont you want to meet my family . Yep, totally. Its practically yours, but we still need your signature. The volkswagen sign then drive event. Zero due at signing, zero down, zero deposit, and zero first months payment on a new jetta and other select models. Give it to me im worth it baby im worth it star wars the force awakens is lifting hollywood to its best year in box office history. The studio has sold 11 billion worth of tickets in 2015. The seventh episode of the franchise could move to number two this weekend on the list of highest domestic grossing movies of all time. As of right now the force awakens trails four films. But this mornings box Office Conversation goes beyond the block busters. The Golden Globe Awards are less than two weeks away. Carol leads the film categories with five nominations and followed by the big short and steve jobs all with four and revenant. Dana stevens is with here along with matt singer who is managing editor and film critic for screen crush. 2015 is part of 2016 because sgars is still killing it at the box office. No spoilers but till lives up to the hype. The stars are at war, we will say that much. The stars are at war but as george lucas pointed out yesterday its not about spaceships but its about family. Star wars has gotten a warm reception because finally after 38 years, is that how long since the first one . Rings those same bells again and i think its nostalgic for fans who loved it back then and creates a franchise for new viewers and lets uus forget abt the early sequels that george lucas created. Will it go past avi tar . I think so. I was seeing a picture in seattle had a sign up we are sold out through january for star wars. So i think its not going to be very long before it is the alltime grocer, at least domestically. Its a huge, huge hit. It probably with win this weekend, right . By this weekend the number one movie of 2015. Does it enter the best picture conversation at all . Its a good movie. A good question. Now they have expanded that category to try to include more popular storms Like Star Wars maybe but loova lot of contenden space. Carol has the no golden globe nominations. That was my favorite single movie of the year and im happy and its getting rewards recognition but doesnt seem like oscar nomination to me because of the force awakens. I think the Golden Globes have recognized that and critic groups have recognized that. A big year for women on screen. I was thinking about making this my top ten list this year. When i looked at who was making the movies, only two of them have been directed by a woman. I dont think there are any big nominees out there for the oscars that are directed by women, right . No. No woman up for best director. Presumably, yeah. Thats a hurdle that still has to be cleared for sure. We wait on the nominations, spotlight has gotten attention and a lot of people love it. Is it the frontrunner for best picture . I would think so. To me it has the most thing voters tend to look for in a best picture winner. Great ensemble and great actors and great screen play and its about something. Star wars is great, we love it but i think its the kind of movie that voters can vote to and say hollywood can do more than star wars and do more than super heroes and make a movie that is interesting and compelling but also important and it has a story that has some real value and some substance to it and movies tend to win best picture. Especially behind the scenes and through every step of what it takes to create the story which may be on paper doesnt sound so sexy. Its true. It isnt the kind of movie that is and really grabs you on paper. But then you watch it and it is so compelling. You know the outcome of the story too. That is the amazing thing is that youre watching it and you know the ending and youre still so invested. Other ones getting buzz here quinton tarantinos movie. Is it out . I think its just coming out now on wide release. That is getting a lot of attention. Has gotten a lot of attention for a while as all of quinton tarantinos movies get. Its cinematically smashing. I suggest you see it the road version they say is old school with an intermission and overture. Its very violent and very gory. If you like tarantino you probably should see it but its very stomach churning. I liked it and it is a movie. Feel like in an age people are not watching theaters in the movie as much and watching them on their phones and ipads. This is an event and harkens back to a time when movies were big, right . You could see this movie on your ipad but youre going to be missing a lot because its three hours long and overture and an intermission and made twice as big and you need to see it in a theater. What felt that way to me is a great example of the movie that really marries kind of popular art and audience appeal with just beautiful crafts, incredible practical stunts and wonderful special effects. And nonstop craziness. On the subject of stomach turning, leo dicaprio. Very little dialogue for leo. If you count aarrgghh dialogue, there is. But youre right. A lot of grunting and groaning thats true. He grunts with the best of them lets just say that. If there was an oscar for best grunting he would be a lock for the century for sure. Can we talk about one that made my heart melt and i cried in front of my children inside out . I cried too. Ill say it. I cried. Lets not we talk about it too much, i might start crying again. It was a sweet movie. Do you think this one will come up at all . You know, i think best chances are in the best animated category and that is going to be interesting category because another wonderful movie this year named anoma lisa i loved as well and i feel those two are fighting it out in that category. Very different movies. Couldnt be more different. Two or three movies youre looking forward to in 2016 . The new Cohen Brothers movie hail seize youre that is a hollywood comedy. Dana . Pixar, finding nemo sequel called finding dori. We will be crying about that one as well. Batman, superman. Thank you both. Thanks.
