Ugh. Blind Side got a Best Picture nod. |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 1
|
Agree, and on the plus side, An Education, a really good movie, would |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 2
|
True. Same goes for Up. Would've been snubbed otherwise. |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 8
|
So would Up, A Serious Man, and District 9. |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 14
|
that's because it was a good movie |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 5
|
Good =/= Great |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 46
|
I'm not even certain I saw 10 "great" movies this year. |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 65
|
On that we can agree. |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 68
|
exactly...good = good |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 79
|
Fine, I'll say it: Star Trek was ROBBED of a Best Picture nomination |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 3
|
Word!!! |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 10
|
oops |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 13
|
the academy could have just bought massive ad space for invictus |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 4
|
Cosign. The worst of the nominated films by a mile. |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 16
|
it was flawed on a number of levels |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 90
|
Yeah, it really was disappointing |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 120
|
the game went on way too long |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 121

Clint Eastwood = Oscar noms |

A few thoughts: |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 9
|
that original screenplay category is a beast though |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 12
|
district 9, FTW!!! |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 11
|
(500) Days of Summer lost. |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 17
|
(500) Days of Summer = Took an L all by itself |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 40
|
You don't see enough movies, lol. |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 49
|
Man I seeTOO many movies ha... |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 74
|
Invictus was worse than (500) Days of Summer. |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 82
|
Invictus was a no go for me... |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 124
|
i agree that 500 Days of Sumer was lame and overrated by a mile |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 69
|
So, out of all the Pixar films, "Up" is the one that made it. |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 15
|
Cmon, it's the first to benefit from the extra slots |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 19
|
I know. I just wish they'd brought back the extra slots when |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 22
|
YES |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 37
|
and deservedly so |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 60
|
it's pixar's best film since incredibles |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 91
|
I disagree. I felt like Up's final third messed it up. |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 129
|
i'm with you. |
|
Feb 04th 2010 | 144

Not too mad at any of this |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 18
|
she's always great, of course, but it's a wonderful performance |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 32
|
Kinda what I figured |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 36
|
nah, it's a great performance |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 92
|
so the same actors get nominated on every single award show |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 20
|
Here were my predictions for the major categories. I did quite well. |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 21
|
Cloudy was likely crowded out because it's an out and out comedy |
|

Co-sign on Matt Damon for "The Informant!" |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 38

i'm surprised matt damon didn't get more buzz for the informant |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 93
|
Best Animated Feature looks like a tough one |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 23
|
I'm pleasantly surprised to see "The Secret of Kells" nominated. |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 24
|
I haven't seen a single best picture nom |

So who's going to win Best Song? |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 27
|
I'm picking The Weary Kind, and I'm saying it's a lock. |

Precious For Best Editing |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 28
|
I did do a bit of a double take myself, since i had a few issues |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 29
|
what issues? |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 95
|
editing is a wee bit jumpy in some places |
|
Feb 18th 2010 | 145
|
Bad year for using up those extra slots |

Me complaining about Oscar noms is an annual tradition but... |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 42
|
While it's not a good year for films, I can't beef with most choices. |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 43
|
I think it's been a good year for films with award noms being |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 45

Well, I saw many 3 to 3.5 star films... but few 4s. |

Agree w/Sponge |
|

Biggest surprise (in a bad way) was only 1 nom for Bright Star |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 44

Tilda in Julia = a trainwreck |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 47

The character does eventually try to do right n/m |

Well, I hope the Academy is happy |

Not that I consider the Oscars to be anything more than a farce... |

Waltz got a nomination last year. Gomorrah was eligible |

it's really not |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 62
|
Wow |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 71

it's not terrible, just wildly overrated |

Feb 02nd 2010 | 98

Feb 02nd 2010 | 59

Best Picture category is a joke |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 64

Explain further. |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 66
|
Its not so much the actual films that are nominated its the # |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 89
|
But they share distinction now with An Education, A Serious Man, Up... |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 113
|
I'm not well positioned to judge |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 73

the oscar buzz the hangover was getting scared me a lot |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 101
|
Im gonna say it. Goodbye Solo & Patton Oswalt were robbed. |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 70
|
Goodbye Solo was pretty good but did you really expect it to... |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 76
|
honestly? i first heard about it from Roeper on TV. so...kinda |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 77
|
Seems like we're 2 of the few who saw Big Fan as well. But I agree. |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 81
|
i really need to see this. |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 86
|
Should be required viewing for oks. Especially Giants & Eagles fans |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 130
|
patton's performance was better than morgan freeman's |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 84
|
West and Oswalt are in my current top 5 male performances |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 88
|
Ouch, I forgot about Goodbye Solo. |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 102
|
i need to see this |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 103
|
and again, Galifianakis got passed over for best supporting. |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 72
|
Oh wait |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 75
|
Support for White Ribbon rescinded! |
|
Feb 04th 2010 | 140

It's also interesting that Mo'Nique didn't play the "Hollywood game" |

"you gotta be twice as good as the white folk" <----- mama's rule |

her game was to grab oscar by the neck and choke it out |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 105
|
QT!!! |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 85
|
They're mad as fuck. All of em. Top grossing QT film too. |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 87
|
longo was chatting, frontin like he won't be furious. GOOD!! |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 97
|
I was just saying QT has basically zero chance of winning Best Director. |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 114
|
Yeah...best shot is Screenplay (which it should win) and Picture. |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 132

anyone who doesn't like inglorious basterds doesn't like movies |

Feb 02nd 2010 | 106

Well, I've got to disagree there. |

On 2nd view, I thought Brad Pitt was hilarious. |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 131
|
Yeah, Brad was fun |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 133
|
people didn't like his accent, but he was definitely funny. |

If Avatar wins BP.... |
|
Feb 02nd 2010 | 96

Looks like the Academy's plan worked...... |

best picture nominees ranked by box office |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 110
|
That's a great point, however... |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 111
|
His point helps support my theory that Up In The Air ain't out of it. |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 115
|
Yeah, but as much as I enjoyed UITA... |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 118
|
I'd say "Up in the Air"; is positioned thrid right now |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 137
|
i think inglourious is ahead of up in the air |
|
Feb 04th 2010 | 139

Inglorious Basterds made over $120 mil? |

I'm suprised there weren't best doc nods for Tyson & Capitalism. |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 112
|
FUCK you're right. I was rooting for Tyson. |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 119
|
i wanted nas' song from tyson to get a nod |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 122
|
wow. haven't seen capitalism, but yeah, tyson was great. |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 123
|
I haven't seen Capitalism either. But Mike Moore usually gets love. |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 127
|
Capitalism was a major snooze |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 135
|
I don't think Moore even submitted "Capitalism" for a nom. |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 136
|
I just wanna mention a few movies. Feel free to add on with more. |
|
Feb 03rd 2010 | 126

9 was alright, awesome animation with a story that was lacking. |
