Yes I am going to watch and I will probably hate myself in the morning. Prediction: upset win for Frost/Nixon.
EDIT Don't we all look back to Rocky as best picture and say "What were they thinking?"(check the films that it beat).In 20 years that's what they will be saying about this year's winner. |

Of the films I've seen from 1976, I'm happy enough for Rocky to have won.
Which of the nominees do you think are better films this time? I agree that Slumdog is not great, but of the others I only prefer Milk. The Reader and Button both have huge flaws and Frost/Nixon is mainly interesting for the interviews, which can just be watched directly. |

Really?? Which films of the four haven't you seen? "Taxi Driver" is one of the greatest films of the 70s. "All The Presidents Men" and "Network" are classic movies. It's a good comparison by Lemmy. Feel good does not equate to classic. See also: Chicago (beating The Hours, The Pianist, Gangs of New York, LOTR: TT) |
