Academy Awards Open Thread & Predictions

miraculous that the feed comes back when the Grammy’s are on.

I think I need to go back to playing Mass Effect anyway

with the only one that was close to its level being Shutter Island. That was nuts.

I saw it in IMAX too, movie was stunning but I think it wont be the same at home. Actually kind of genius to make a movie that has to be seen in the theater.

and it was great to look at. It was a visual masterpiece and an experience.

But the lines were drivel, the acting was bad, and the storyline was horrible.

other than that it was pretty cool.

When I went to see it, I actually felt insulted that the producers depicted military servicemen as being so retarded with their actions (i.e. not following actual real-life protocol, the lead actor running around unarmed through a town at night, insubordination, etc.). All of that ruined the film for me because it was shot so well.

I was just pleased to see something besides almighty Avatar win. Personally I was hoping for Inglorious Basterds, but I knew it wouldn’t happen.

Its the first military movie about these wars that didnt put a political spin on it and made it about the men over there. Plus the end where he goes back, much like The Wrestler, you really have to stop and think which makes it so much more than just an action/war film.

I really liked it!
