I’ve only seen one of the nominees and that was Moneyball. It was excellent. I fully support it winning. I only want to see two of the other films – Hugo and Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close. I might watch The Help. I want to make sure I never see The Artist, The Tree of Life, and War Horse. I am cheering hard against these last three. Especially The Artist.
Know what that tells me? The Artist is going to win. None of my movies ever do well at the Oscars. So if you are betting, put the farm on The Artist or perhaps hedge with The Tree of Life. I have no frickin clue what that movie is or why it was nominated.
Otherwise work on your outrage for when Moneyball and Brad Pitt get shafted at the Oscars.
Get ready for my 10 – 20 delayed tweeting Sunday night. Should be amazing!
I love award shows too!I applaud you for going the extra mile and wanthicg all the nominated movies. I can’t wait for your reviews. We want to see several of the nominated movies, but not all. Brad Pitt was on The Today show this morning via telephone and after hearing him be so happy about his fellow actors and the nomination, I’ll even watch Moneyball. 🙂
They like Tokyo because the popele are so nice and kind there. If you have been there you would know. Even Japanese who do not speak any English will come out of his/her store (if they see you looking in both direction with a map) and will offer to help you. They will give you the map of their block and with fingers will show you the way on that map how to get wherever you would like to go. We were just stunned where these popele came from??Other planet? And when they got hit by this disaster in my family we cried; how could that happen to these beautiful popele and country. So, I could relate to Brad and Angie loving it there. And from the box office of every film of either of them you could say Japan loves them too. So they feel good now. Brad is great in this movie. If you have somebody who is a professional sportsman you would know that they have a particular attitude, manners, way of speaking, sitting, talking. He adopted all of it including the spitting..ha ha and the hands on the hip as well as the way of walking, smashing things when losing everything. Unbe-bloody-lievable. As in Tree of Life -just so different from what really is and especially towards kids How could popele say he is not a good actor. How could not popele ignore his good looks and popularity and really see him what great actor he is. This is also something I am so unhappy about, it is unfair to him, big time. The good news popele all over the world and especially in Europe/Japan/ Australia appreciate him for the whole package not for the sexiest man alive garbage thing.
