OMG the OSCAARS!!!

[Revolver]

awsome...

love it


live it...lols...


anways....no country for old men FTmothafukinW!!1!...

[Grapes]

Great movies out there.. the only thing that lessens the excitement for me is that Bardem is a lock for Best supporting Actor and Day-Lewis is and even bigger lock for Best Actor.

Best Picture and Director will be interesting though.. and whether Ellen Page takes best Actress

Never realized you paid so much attention to all that movie-stuff!

i can think of fewer things that are less entertaining than the oscars but somehow I'm compelled to watch.

[rawb]

final fantasy tactics on psp + oscars + kam's leftovers = winning combination

[Grapes]

Started watching them and then realized I hate speeches.

Still curious to know who wins though, esp since I told Jim I'd eat my shoe if Daniel Day Lewis doesn't win best actor.

I won't even consider which shoe, or how it should be cooked, because I'm so certain that I won't be forced to make those decisions

[Grapes]

This just in: I officially don't have to eat my shoe.

There Will Be Blood is shafted by No Country for Old Men. Loved both films but I have to side with cubed and say I would have given a close decision to the former, personally.

[cubed]

I think the shoe eating was probably the safest bet you've ever made.

DDL's performance in There Will Be Blood was so intense that there was no way he wasn't going to win.

Both No Country and There Will Be Blood were amazing films, it really could have gone either way.

It's too bad Rawb was up against Bardem for best supporting actor, because he put in a really great performance in The Assassination of Jesse James.

I just finished watching Juno, and it was highly enjoyable. I think I'd even go as far as saying I'd watch it a second time.

^Jim eventually decided it was retarded watching that crap, so, we watched a couple of movies, instead.

First was "Awake" w/ Van-Star Wars-dude...Hayden?....
What a horrible script!

Then, watched one of the nominee's: "Juno".
I'd heard it was shot here, and, it totally looks like Van.
Excellent acting!
The quirkiest dialogue in a script I've ever heard, since "Heathers"! (Soooo many left-turns into absurdity!)

(goes to other sites to see who won)

[dave mcnasty]

almost all of my predictions were right except for a few.....I kind of thought No Country would take cinematography....and I was surprised Transformers didn't take special effects

overall it was a good show and I think most of the winners were quite deserving.....its kind of a shame that No Country and There Will be Blood were out the same year cuz it probably could have gone either way....Paul Thomas Anderson got beat out of 3 oscars by the Coens, and probly not by many votes

That was heartbreaking, really. :(

[anewlife]

Hollywood celebrates Hollywood...boring.

What about movies like 4 luni, 3 saptamani si 2 zile, Bikur Ha-Tizmoret and Goongnyeo? Cristian Nemescu, Ki-duk Kim, Andrei Zvyagintsev?

Who cares about the Oscars anyway? Pff... :S

NOBODY CARES ABOUT MOVIES MADE IN SOME CRAZY MOON LANGUAGE
THEY HAVE THE MOON OSCARS FOR THAT

[ebbomega]

I watched Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead and I'd bet it was better than 90% of the movies that were paid homage to last night.

profound mental retardation?

[decypher]

The foreign language winner, The Counterfeiters, was really good. But the srt file i have for it is a really bad translation at parts.

that movie peaked with the verbal tennis match. Better for stage than film I always thought.

it's called political correctness, silly.

Eh, I thought the constant anachronistic pseudo-discovery of scientific thought from Shakespearean era onwards was a good running gag. Never seen or read the play but I really want to.

Also liked the puppet show within a play within a movie based on a play reinterpreting another play...

Also Tim Roth and Gary Oldman remain two of my fav actors of all time.

You're missing out, the times I've seen it live it's been absolutely brilliant!

Tom Stoppard is a god

Saw R&G are dead at Bard on the Beach a couple of years ago and it was mind blowing/warping!

no country was a fucking pointless movie
