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.  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  . The story & plot was beautiful, but her acting isn't what they all awarding. She was AMAZING in Titanic though  . 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.

what a terribly uninteresting list... 2008 was not a good year for the academy.
in either case, i'll only be happy as long as slumdog millionaire does not win. milk winning would, at least, be a gesture of repentance for the homophobic bullshit that went down with crash vs. brokeback. the academy is a piece of shit commercial & conservative machine anyways. p.s. that let the right one in isn't even nominated for best foreign feature is such a sadness. p.p.s. hopefully man on wire will win best documentary feature. p.p.p.s. hopefully the dark knight will win nothing. god, what a trash bag. if they have to win anything, just give the dead man the award and let's get over it, f*ck. |
