Title: the oscars
Post by: Snorkel on February 24, 2008, 08:50:19 PM
Did you watch them?

I am glad that No Country For Old Men won Best Director and Best Film, because it is truly a spectacle of filmmaking

3:10 to Yuma deserved some love.

It was good, but not even close to anything nominated for Best Film, in my opinion... although I would have put Diving Bell & The Butterfly in there over Juno.

Juno was garbage. Just because they touched on an "important issue" doesn't make it any better than shit movies like Superbad or Meet the Spartans. And Superbad was just funny, not good; Juno wasn't even funny.

I thought Juno was good; Ellen Paige and Michael Cera are both premium role players, although as far as Ellen Paige goes I still like Hard Candy more.

I still wouldn't have nominated it for Best Film, though.

Wow. Bassir you should grow a funny bone and kill yourself for roping Superbad in with the same category of shit as Meet The Spartans.

I'm glad Juno won most original screenplay. I really liked it.

Too much of the humor was forced. Let's throw in a few sex jokes into that conversation, and hey throw in a penis over there, OH MY GOD THERE HAS TO BE ANOTHER SEX JOKE THERE.

Some of it, but not like the whole movie was like that. You sure like to exaggerate things.

Only in passing. Stuck up assholes praising each other, no thanks.
