Here are the nominees:

-Slumdog Millionaire
-Frost/Nixon
-The Reader
-The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
-Milk


I saw every movie online & in theaters, & my vote will go to Slumdog. Yes, they really deserve it. Not out of pity, the screenplay was just incredible. I'd be devastated if it was based on a true story. ermm.gif

I saw Benjamin Button, it was nice, but not Oscar worthy. Milk made me cry, Sean Penn is just talented. Frost/Nixon was pretty awesome too, i enjoyed it. & The Reader was excellent, but i don't know why everyone's making such a huge deal of Winslet's performance huh.gif . The story & plot was beautiful, but her acting isn't what they all awarding. She was AMAZING in Titanic though aniwink.gif . OH! I also saw Doubt, which i was suprised it wasn't nominated in this catergory. All these movies were very good, but Slumdog deserves it. thumbsup.gif

^ Then do ittttttt. I love getting @replies!

I thought it was going to go to Rourke too, but the Oscars tend to have their causes and this year's was apparently gay marriage. But I've heard nothing but good things about both of their performances, so in either case the award would've been well earned.

I too need to watch Milk, if only for Emile Hirsch and James Franco.
