and the oscar goes to...
 

any predictions on the winners? have you seen the nominated films? what do you think makes a movie, actor, director, etc., worthy of the prestigious oscar? or ain't it all that prestigious?


a list of the nominees

I feel bad because I have not seen one of the best film nominations. I have Little Miss Sunshine on que and have heard it is fab.

we bought it...it is fab!

The Departed really WAS good. You never know which way those things are going to go, though.

I saw the Departed, Little Miss Sunshine, and Babel and loved them all for different reasons. :) It always seems like the ones I like won't win, though, so who knows.

I watched the Departed last night and absolutely loved it. I put in Babel just a few minutes ago but haven't started watching it yet. I really wanted to see The Queen, but never got a chance.

Felix?

I haven't seen any of the nominated movies.

But I love Cameron Diaz's hair!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pan's Labyrinth is starting to sweep...

It's the only movie I've seen :D

Wasn't it good? I hope they get more and I hope Volver gets something since it was shut out of the foreign movie slot. It'd be a good leap for original storytelling.

M A Y E R...........

Martin Scorcese & his friends were wonderful. Forest Whitaker made me cry. I missed James Taylor!

I got the biggest kick out of Ellen telling Spielberg how to take a good digital picture. :roflmao:

*didn't watch a single minute* :p
we did watch the movie garden state...not bad.

Didn't see a single second of the Oscars either. Had actually forgotten about it until I saw this thread on Monday. I've had "Little Miss Sunshine" for about a week from Netflix and haven't gotten around to watching it yet. For some reason it was one of those that just didn't feel like a "gotta see it as soon as the DVD gets here" kind of thing. Maybe that will be my entertainment for tonight.

Well send it in cause its on my que!!!!!

Just finished watching "Little Miss Sunshine" and yep, it's a winner. :thumb:
