THE SOCIAL NETWORK was fucking horrible!!

[Jayw]

The social network was gay I will give you that. Only watched it because of the hype.

I'm always on facebook, but I still think the movie was incredibly overrated.

[Jayw]

I mean bale is cool and he was good in the fighter but he just seems so full of himself everytime he speaks, irritates me.

[Jayw]

The only social network one I would give is the score to reznor. I thought it was great.

[underdog]

The only social network one I would give is the score to reznor. I thought it was great.

I thought it was good, but it took me out of the movie. It just sounds exactly like his Ghosts album.

[disneyspy]

scarlet johanssens hair looks as i imagine waking up next to her would look

[Sinestro]

Anne Hathaway looks stunning.

[thepaulo]

Anne Hathaway looks stunning.

I'm one of those who picks Hathaway over Johanson anyday

I'm one of those who picks Hathaway over Johanson anyday

give me marissa tomei anyday over those two

[underdog]

I'm one of those who picks Hathaway over Johanson anyday

I'm one of those who call you gay.

I also think Hathaway is fucking bizarre looking and don't particularly find her attractive.

[thepaulo]

Am I crazy or does Helena Bonahm Carter Burton not have bed head tonight

[thepaulo]

I'm one of those who call you gay.

I also think Hathaway is fucking bizarre looking and don't particularly find her attractive.

If I were doing a three way I would position Johanson's face away from me

[Snacks]

Have you seen all the other best picture nominations?

Not all as I said but I loved the social Netowrk and think it should win. Just because really hate it, is nice for you.

Themovie was hardly a ringing endorsement for the Facebook founder

[disneyspy]

Themovie was hardly a ringing endorsement for the Facebook founder

and the acting was HORRIBLE!

[thepaulo]

It must be great to be a complete nobody and win an oscar

[Snacks]

Themovie was hardly a ringing endorsement for the Facebook founder

exactly thats why I liked it. It showed the scumbag that he is but the fact that he grew this business to what it is and in his early 20s was amazing! it was also a great business movie for the new tech world we live in.

I also love everything Sorkin does and its nice to see him getting the respect he deserves!

[underdog]

Hey, I've seen all those.

[thepaulo]

oh well....at leasy Banksy won the Independent Spirit award

[underdog]

oh well....at leasy Banksy won the Independent Spirit award

I liked that he sent Mr. Brainwash up.

There was no way he was wining the Oscar. They were terrified of him.

[underdog]

I'll agree with the film editing going to The Social Network. That deserved that award.

[disneyspy]

listening to THE SOCIAL NETWORK's score over and over i realize i liked it better when it was THE NATURAL

[Snacks]

what the hell was that?

[thepaulo]

what the hell was that?

the musicians from 127 hours

[thepaulo]

Randy Newman..."You Love me...you really love me."

[Snacks]

the musicians from 127 hours

Terrible!

Randy Newman only won 2 times in 20 nominations? That was a surprise!

[hanso]

They really always pick crap music for the death roll.

[thepaulo]

Didn't know Claude Chabrol died...

You cant be serious? Is it because shes hyped like social network and you are trying to be anti popular choice tonight?

[Jayw]

I'm one of those who call you gay.

I also think Hathaway is fucking bizarre looking and don't particularly find her attractive.

Seriously I thought I was the only one that thought Hathaway looks strange as fuck. Something about her is just plain weird.

[disneyspy]

i figure if its that important they should them during commercials too but do they ? nooooooooo

Wow, Anette Benning looks ancient.

[hanso]

A big ass afro oscar show is in order. That is a tongue twister.

[underdog]

Seriously I thought I was the only one that thought Hathaway looks strange as fuck. Something about her is just plain weird.

I think it's a 50/50 split, from what I've learned.

She's on that line of either being gorgeous or ugly to people.

[Snacks]

I think it's a 50/50 split, from what I've learned.

She's on that line of either being gorgeous or ugly to people.

She looks good some movies and looks weird or not so attractive in others.

Shes not Scarlett Johanson thats for sure!

[Jayw]

My twitter feed is smashed from these oscars, everyone and their brother has a fucking opinion about every single thing that is happening on the tv.

[underdog]

She looks good some movies and looks weird or not so attractive in others.

Shes not Scarlett Johanson thats for sure!

Agreed.

[Jayw]

Damn the winters bone girl cleans up well, I was wondering who that was.

[underdog]

This could or should have been 2 in a row for Mr Firth!

He was amazing in A Single Man.

[underdog]

They gave the Oscar to a movie that seemed like it was specifically written to win an Oscar. But I'll buy it. It was a pretty good film.

[disneyspy]

YES!


I DIDNT EVEN SEE THE MOVIE BUT IM GLAD THE SOCIAL NETWORK LOST


face

[Snacks]

Congrats to The Kings Speech.

This year it seemed to a wide variety of winners. I think the big winners are Kings Speech, Social Network, Inception and even the fighter winning 2 major awards!

[Jayw]

He was amazing in A Single Man.

this. Since he was good in that I'll give him a pass since I didn't bother watching the kings speech. It is about the only movie I skipped.

[underdog]

You should watch it. As boring as it may seem in previews, it was a pretty excellent movie.

[Snacks]

What was the point of bringing those kids on stage from Staten Island in tee shirts singing? Another, for no reason moment!

[Justice4all]

I'm just shocked that Trent Reznor won the oscar. When I listened to Pretty Hate Machine way back in 1989 I never ONCE thought "hey here's a guy who will win an oscar for his music and stand on stage and tell his wife I love you"

[Furtherman]

James Franco was so odd and aloof as host I loved it. He constantly cracked me up. He'll probably get bad reviews but I thought he and Anne did a good job.

[Snacks]

I still dont understand why they chose those 2 to do it together? They arent "hosts" or comedians and they are both big enough stars to not have to do that.

[sailor]

i hated all those ps 22 kids. watching them was worse than the cloverfield shakey-cam.

[StanUpshaw]

Are they the Black Eyed Peas of Oscar hosts?

Who said she was a musician? I think, for an actress, she has a pretty good singing voice.

[A.J.]

Why would a loving God let Kirk Douglas do this?

That was extremely cringe-worthy.

[A.J.]

left foot right foot...

I was thinking exactly the same thing.

[realmenhatelife]

I liked the Kirk Douglas thing. Sometimes people get messed up, deciding that they should just be put away because of it is bullshit. It's not a big deal, dude slurs.


And Michelle Williams, she never looks right when I see her, and I realized that she was in Dawsons Creek and that must be why.

[fezident]

Singers are musicians.
Gwen is not a singer.

[Baby DEW Year]

It must be great to be a complete nobody and win an oscar

You're halfway there! :clap:

[KnoxHarrington]

I just have a feeling that in 20 years, you'll look at "The King's Speech" the same way we look at movies like "Out of Africa" and "Gandhi" now: a pretty good movie, very well-made, perhaps with an important message, but it won't be one that a lot of people go out of their way to see anymore.

[StanUpshaw]

I'm not going out of my way to see it now.

The King's Speech bores me.

I'm wonder how Alexander Payne is going to fuck up The Descendents. It actually is pretty vital to the story that the people be from Hawaii, so I wonder how he's going to make them Midwestern. Although good luck with the ending, which was a hot sloppy mess.

Tonight, chief New York Times theater critic A.O. Scott is conducting a live Q&A webcast (http://www.nytimesknownow.com/index.php/beyond-the-red-carpet-oscar-talk-with-a-o-scott/) at 7PM (I think we have to register a few hours before). Anybody can air their views on the Oscar nominations, and, if so desired, give Mr. Scott what-for. I think I'm going to ask him a question about "State of the Union." That'll confuse him.

Wow, what a joke this year. So the big story is no animation nom for Tintin, right?

Also, Incredibly loud blah blah got a fucking F at AV club and gets nominated for best picture. Rooney Mara, Melissa Mccarthy, Jonah Hill. Cmon.

[CountryBob]

Shitty year for oscar worthy movies.

But most of the stuff I like dont win awards anyway...

[newport king]

i usually sit down and watch all the best picture nominees, regardless of what they're about. looking at that list looks like a snoozefest.

[newport king]

Best ORIGINAL screenplay, Bridesmaids...really? The Hangover with women.

[realmenhatelife]

Best ORIGINAL screenplay, Bridesmaids...really? The Hangover with women.

I actually thought there was a lot of it that was way different than what it was marketed as, and I really liked those aspects of the movie. It's about a woman who is a loser because she self sabotages, and she ultimately has to overcome her self sabotaging and stop blaming her mom, and friends, and luck in order to gain any level of success. And when she does gain something it isn't like winning the lottery, it's really realistic, her level of success is pretty subdued at the end of the movie.

i just really didn't like it. the fat girl, or the "zach galifinakis" of the crew wasn't funny. at all.

and i just went over to rottentomatoes and watch the trailer for every best picture movie. (i've seen moneyball already) but everything on that list is really fuckin gay. i might sit through a couple. Just to have an idea, but wow this list is bad.

War Horse looks like total shite.

Hugo and The Descendants and maybe Midnight In Paris look watchable.

I'll pass on The Help and Tree of Life.

I really DONT want to watch Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close because i don't feel like crying for 2 hours.

Yeah, her whole part was garbage to me. It was derivative and felt really tacked on. But Kristen Wiig really surprised me, and I liked Mya Rudolf more than I thought I would. I get the feeling it was a much lower key movie at one point.

[newport king]

Tree of Life was great. I'm looking forward to The Descendants & Midnight In Paris.

did tree of life have anything to do with some sort of doomsday scenario? it doesnt seem like it should, but in the beginning of the trailer it looked like a comet hitting earth, and has images that look like it. maybe im completely off.

The math for determining a best picture nominee is WAY above my head.
Here is an attempt to explain it.

[realmenhatelife]

I just realized that that Olsen girl didn't get nominated for Martha Marcy May Marlene, what the fuck Oscars?

The snub list this year is deeper than the nominations.

It's too late too worry about the snubs in the nominating process...
my big concern now is that The Artist should not win and it seems destined to win

Does anyone have both a best foreign film and a best picture or best director oscar?

Good question. I'll have to research but my first guess would be Ang Lee. He has been in contention a few times. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon had 10 nominations.

Moonrise Kingdom
Lincoln
Silver Linings Playbook
Life of Pi
Argo
Rust and Bone
Hitchcock
Arbitrage
Amour
Skyfall
The Dark Knight Rises
The Sessions
Cloud Atlas
Les Miserables
Zero Dark Thirty
The Master
Beasts of the Southern Wild
The Impossible
Anna Karenina
Best Exotic Marigold Hotel
Django Unchained
Flight
The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey
End of Watch
Quartet
Magic Mike
Prometheus
Brave
Frankenweenie
Hyde Park on the Hudson


I could include more but doubt anything else will make the cut in anyway even though you never know.
For instance

On the Road
The Paperboy
Not Fade Away
Looper
Killer Joe
Robot & Frank
Cosmopolis
Compliance
The Deep Blue Sea
Won't Back Down
Killing Them Softly
Detachment

I enjoyed it too, but I never expect a lot of love for such a serialized (is that a word?) movie, it was well done all around, but it was still another Bond movie.

Which "it"? I haven't seen Pi, and I didn't see Locker until it came out on DVD. However, a lot of people have seen Locker, as it became a HUGELY popular illegal download, after it won the Oscar. But not of that matters. The Oscars aren't supposed to be about ticket sales or profit. If it was, Adam Sandler would be building houses out of Oscars.

Break it down however you want, but when the ending and culmination of the story became gambling on a dance contest it got stupid. Before that it was a good movie about dealing with people with mental illness.

A: You have obviously never been around a degenerate gambler.
B: Any thing that has Jennifer Lawrence hot ass in a dance outfit is OK with me...

She was either in tight dance wear or jogging spandex the entire movie..

I thought they were doing a fine job of showing the down side of a degenerate gambler without the stupid dance contest. I'm sorry, with or without the gambling, turning this movie into a dance off took me out of it.
I was not opposed to Jennifer Lawrence in tight clothes, nor do I foresee a situation where I would be.

I had absolutely no problem because it was essentially a screwball comedy that happened to deal with serious subjects. Loved it and certainly didn't take it too seriously.

I liked Silver Linings Playbook. I thought it was acted incredibly well by everyone in the cast and the story kept me intrigued. The dance at the end was a little bit odd, but it was a romantic dramady so it's expected.

And yes, Jennifer Lawrence looked incredible throughout the whole thing.
