2008 Academy Awards

[chaseter]

Well, agree or disagree with the winners (I'm a bit disappointed that there were absolutely no suprises)...I think we can all agree on one thing...Jon Stewart should be ashamed.

I agree 100%

 

[DACrowe]

Both those films were great.

In 2005 Munich, Goodnight and Good Luck, Brokeback Mountain, Capote and Syriana (among others) were better.

In 2004 The Aviator and Sideways were MUCH better.

 

[DarknessOfDeath]

Well, that was fun.

Indeed...

 

[Cousin Itt]

Really glad No Country won.

 

[cerealkiller182]

Im really unhappy i didnt do an oscar pool this year. Most of whom i thought would win won.

Hooray for No Country. the best damn movie of the year

 

[Darkly Dexter]

Nah, he's good but not as good as DiCaprio.

With all due respect, you're insane.

 

[Apollo]

i still haven't seen any of the nominations....

 

[Yurka]

No Country For Old Men is officially the most overrated movie of the history.

Doubt.

 

[StorminNorman]

In 2005 Munich, Goodnight and Good Luck, Brokeback Mountain, Capote and Syriana (among others) were better.

In 2004 The Aviator and Sideways were MUCH better.

Thats a complete load.

 

[Hunter Rider]

With all due respect, you're insane.

ZOMG he was in Fight Club and American History X, he is t3h bestest, puhlease bro.

 

[Lunar_Wolf]

Overall meh.

Glad Diablo Cody won.
Transformers got raped by a bear and Matt Damon.
No County was overhyed.

 

[Duende Verde]

Whoa, Denzel is sporting the Green lantern look.

Denzel turned into a white man?

 

[jmc]

In 2005 Munich, Goodnight and Good Luck, Brokeback Mountain, Capote and Syriana (among others) were better.

In 2004 The Aviator and Sideways were MUCH better.

Opinions, although I will say Syrianna was a better flick.

 

[cerealkiller182]

I'll agree to disagree. But I thought ALL FOUR OTHER NOMINEES were better along with a slew of movies snubbed for No Country's position. Hype won this award.

Just because you didnt like the movie doesnt mean that hype won the award.

 

[ShaneHelms]

Congrats to The Coen Brothers and to Javier Bardem

 

[Apollo]

i want to go see No country tomorrow...

 

[matthooper]

No Country For Old Men is officially the most overrated movie of the history.

I really believe the film emits some kind of mind control that convinces 99% of the people watching it that it's a good film.

 

[bullets]

Well Matt for Depp to win a one he will have to do a serious drama, sadly that's how it goes.

Well he has a couple lined up . He came so close with Finding Neverland.

 

[jmc]

I was under the impression Atonement was getting all the hype.

 

[Jerry!]

I think I would have been surprised if any other movie other than No Country or There Will Be Blood won best picture. Between those two I guess it could have gone either way. Personally I enjoyed TWBB a lot more. Those two scenes with Tommy Lee Jones just kinda killed No Country for me. I still liked it, but just not as much.

 

[DACrowe]

Indeed...

To answer your question, I was talking about your older avy with the multiple images of Sidney (since I think you missed my last post on it).

It makes me sad when something this overrated wins. But after movies like Titanic, Shakespeare in Love, The English Patient and Million Dollar Baby winning Oscars in recent memory, I'll just have to shrug this off. A marketing campaign won this award.

My opinion, of course.

 

[cerealkiller182]

In 2005 Munich, Goodnight and Good Luck, Brokeback Mountain, Capote and Syriana (among others) were better.

In 2004 The Aviator and Sideways were MUCH better.

Iagree about 2005, but 2004 Sideways sucked but The Aviator definitely gave Million Dollar Baby a run for its money. Both were very deserving

 

[Yurka]

I really believe the film emits some kind of mind control that convinces 99% of the people watching it that it's a good film.

Or its just a damn good movie.

 

[Gotham]

Glad about Diablo Cody receiving the Best Original Screenplay award. Well deserved. Anderson - snubbed once more, even though There Will Be Blood is probably his best film to date. Bardem - again, amazing performance and it's amazing that he won.

Great show. Until next year..

 

[chaseter]

I didn't laugh once at anything Stewart said tonight...
