Neff Theatre Dork Posts: 919 From: San Francisco, CA Registered: Oct 1999 posted 01-23-2007 02:06 PM                        What a boring list of nominees. I enjoyed Little Miss Sunshine a great deal, but I don't think it deserves an Oscar. But who am I to say?? I didn't like Million Dollar Baby or Sideways at all and they won didn't they?  |  IP: Logged Mike Schindler Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1039 From: Oak Park, IL, USA Registered: Jun 2002 posted 01-23-2007 02:12 PM                     quote: Scott D.

You're someone with better taste than the Academy.  |  IP: Logged Caleb Johnstone-Cowan Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 593 From: London, UK Registered: Mar 2006 posted 01-23-2007 04:00 PM                     It's a crime that Jack Nicholson didn't get a supporting actor nomination for The Departed. Can't believe I'm going to have to see Dreamgirls now based on the number of nominations, always try to see the main nominated films and winners in the cinema. Really want Abigail Breslin to win Supporting Actress, she was fantastic in Little Miss Sunshine.  |  IP: Logged Bob Maar (Maar stands for Maartini) Posts: 28608 From: New York City & Newport, RI Registered: Feb 2001 posted 01-23-2007 05:04 PM                        BABEL - You have to be kidding me?????  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 01-23-2007 05:43 PM                        I've never even heard of Little Miss Sunshine. It sounds like something Drew Barrymore would be in. I don't think I've heard of Babel, either.  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 01-23-2007 06:13 PM                        ^ ^ ^ Guy who needs to get out more ^ ^ ^  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 01-23-2007 07:30 PM                        I get out plenty. Remember, just because you work at a movie theater does not mean movies are the most important thing in the world to everyone else. Even the videogame industry makes more money than the movie industry. Don't you think that's sad? You should try harder to make more money.  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 01-23-2007 10:17 PM                        No, the sad thing is that movies aren't the most important thing in the world to everyone. That said, who gives a shit what industry makes more money?  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 01-23-2007 10:39 PM                        I was making a point that movies aren't the most popular leisure activity people spend their money on anymore. You seem to think that I god damn well OUGHT to know what those movies are, or else I am less of a human being or something. Should I assume that you need to get out more because you've never heard of Gears of War?  |  IP: Logged Mike Heenan Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1896 From: Scottsdale, AZ, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 01-23-2007 10:50 PM                      |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 01-23-2007 10:50 PM                        Thanks for contributing, Heenan.  |  IP: Logged Greg Anderson Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 766 From: Ogden Valley, Utah Registered: Nov 1999 posted 01-23-2007 10:52 PM                        They gave a Best Adapted Screenplay nomination to Borat. I don't even have to argue that the Oscars are irrelevant. The Academy's making that argument for me! This makes me more irrelevant than ever.  |  IP: Logged Allison Parsons Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 630 From: East Peoria, IL Registered: Oct 2004 posted 01-23-2007 11:47 PM                        Is anyone even showing Letters From Iwo Jima yet??????  |  IP: Logged
