Predicitions? Desired outcomes?
Haven't seen Zero Dark thirty yet but I hear it's good.
Lincoln was ok but boring, DDL is the only reason to watch really.
I liked Les Miserables because I've seen it twice on stage, and overall I thought it was good, even Anne Hatahway, which I never thought I would say. Russell Crowe is a JOKE and can't sing to save his life. Totally takes you out of the film.
Why The Master is not up for Best Picture is just SHOCKING to me. It's an actual masterpiece, but totally overlooked. Torn between Best Actor for DDL or Joaquin Phoenix.
IMO, Silver Linings Playbook is a fucking TRAGEDY of a film, and the fact that Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence are nominated in their categories is just so sad and clearly political. It's a film that doesn't know what genre it is, starring actors who are totally unbelievable as their characters. I just see Bradley Cooper trying really hard to be a smalltown dude, but really it's just cocky playboy Bradley Cooper from The Hangover (which is what he's actually like)
Django is pretty awesome, it's fun story that doesn't take itself seriously. And Leonardo Dicaprio's best role in YEARS. Where was his nomination, when fuckin Bradley Cooper got his?
And Argo is also a fun tense story, which has LITTLE to do with actual events, and in typical fashion glamourized by Americans who took credit for the actual rescue. See Jimmy Carter Below:
