But he doesn't deserve to win. Cuz, you know, it was a good job, but not an Oscar worthy job. He's only there because he's dead.
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. It was lunchtime at Wagstaff.

I just don't understand why the Oscars are so narrowminded when it comes to handing out nominations. Yes, I realize a lot of movies these days suck, but apparently the only movies that you SHOULD BE WATCHING, according to the Acadamy, are a bunch of high-brow, drama fests that are suppose to evoke emotions that you never even knew you had.
Wall-E would NEVER get a nomination for best picture because there are *gasp* humorous parts in that movie. And it seems the only way you can get an Oscar Nod for best actor/actress is if you're either playing a gay man, an oddity of nature, or you're a wash-up. What I find EXTREMELY odd about this process is that the only real thing outside of 'drama drama and OMG BIG DRAMA' is RDJ's nomination for his role in Tropic Thunder. I thought it was hilarious, but why was he nominated? It wasn't a serious role. Most amazing jew boots |
Why all the hate towards dramas? I was speaking idiomatically. |
Annie Hall = dramedy
edit: Belay that. The term appears to have been appropriated and I am now misusing it. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

All the hate towards dramas means that very human and very true comedies get overlooked. See "Knocked Up".
FELIPE NO It was lunchtime at Wagstaff.

I really can't tell if you're being sarcastic. Better diss your post just to be safe.
Anyway: I'm pretty happy with the Best Picture nominees this year. The only one I had an issue with was The Reader, but four out of five ain't bad. Already got my tickets to the Best Picture Showcase at the local megaplex. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
I'm sorry, but Knocked Up was just about as human a comedy as, say, Juno was.
Jam it back in, in the dark. It was lunchtime at Wagstaff.

Putting Knocked Up in the same league of shit as Hamburger Phone: The Movie is just plain retarded, I'm sorry.
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Juno was a pretty good movie I dunno why you guys are all hatin on it.

THUNDERCATS ARE GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!~

Juno's dramatic moments were pretty good (especially the stuff with Jason Bateman), but they were unfortunately outweighed by endless faux-clever hipster diatribes at the expense of actually being, you know, genuinely funny. Ugh... To give that script an Academy Award over something brilliant like Michael Clayton is tragic.
I was speaking idiomatically.

Seriously? What's with the hate for Juno, exactly? That "hipster" stuff is honestly how some people talk and think (not me personally, but some folks I know are quite like the people in the movie.
Seriously, I think all the hate is because she has a damn hamburger phone. I liked Knocked Up JUST AS MUCH as I liked Juno; which is to say, a lot. I think that the Apatow film was just as worthy (if not moreso) of Oscar nomination as Juno was. WVLF APPARENTLY HAS NO TASTE. NEITHER DO THE REST OF YOU FUCKS.

Do we also hate people who act like Lorelai and Lorelai Gilmore?
Cuz I know people like them, too. I like them, too. Jam it back in, in the dark. It was lunchtime at Wagstaff.

And I hope for your sake you're fucking joking. There's nowhere I can't reach. John Mayer just asked me, personally, through an assistant, to sing backup on his new CD. |
No, I'm not. Gilmore Girls makes me happy.
Also, in case you didn't notice:

Well, of course Gummo is a superior film. But then Gummo's superior to a LOT of stuff.

And Juno is inferior to a lot of stuff.

Heath Ledger wins. Frank Langella does not. Patrick McGoohan is missing from the In Memoriam montage.

Can anyone explain to me why Slumdog Millionaire isn't a total piece of shit? So far, the answers I have recieved to this question are a) "I liked it" and b) "it takes place in India".
They might as well have given it to Beverley Hills Chihuahua for it's brave portrayal of the plight of the Mexican worker. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
Heres the short version: 2009 was like 2000 - there was no obviously great movies, so they had to pick *something*. This is why Slumdog, much like Gladiator, won; not because they should but you had to do it with something.
Jam it back in, in the dark. |
But Gladiator was still better-than-insultingly-empty. This is like if the 2000 oscar went to Jim Carrey's How The Grinch Stole Christmas.
