Sandra Bullock, The Proposal - seriously. That was a really really horrible movie.
|
The Hangover... Best Pic Comedy?
Uh, it was funny but it wasn't all that... imho |
I loved the Hangover and definitely think it deserves to be considered (with the caveat that I've seen none of the other noms).
|
My picks, based on what I've seen (only picking if I've seen at least three of the nominees). Crossed out means I haven't seen it. Bold means my pick among those I've seen.
Obviously, I'm an uninformed consumer on most of these. Will update if picks change as I pick them up. Best Motion Picture -- Drama The Hurt Locker Inglorious Basterds Precious Up in the Air Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture -- Drama Only seen one of five. Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture -- Drama Only seen one of five. Best Motion Picture -- Musical or Comedy (500) Days of Summer The Hangover (mostly because I don't think the other two are remotely deserving, also 500 Days of Summer is neither a musical nor a comedy) Julie & Julia Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture -- Musical or Comedy Only seen one of five. Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture -- Musical or Comedy Matt Damon, The Informant Robert Downey Jr., Sherlock Holmes Joseph Gordon Levitt, (500) Days of Summer Michael Stuhlbarg, A Serious Man Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role in a Motion Picture Mo-Nique, Precious Anna Kendrick, Up in the Air Vera Farmiga, Up in the Air Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role in a Motion Picture Only seen one of five (but it is going to take a lot to overcome Christoph Waltz. Best Animated Feature Film Coraline The Fantastic Mr. Fox (very hard choice over Up) The Princess and the Frog Up Best Foreign Language Film Seen none of them. Best Director -- Motion Picture Kathryn Bigelow, The Hurt Locker Clint Eastwood, Invictus Jason Reitman, Up in the Air Quentin Tarantino, Inglorious Basterds Best Screenplay -- Motion Picture Up in the Air District 9 The Hurt Locker Inglorious Basterds Best Original Score -- Motion Picture No opinion, even having seen three of the movies. Best Original Song -- Motion Picture Seen none of them. |
Wow. In the entire list above, the two movies I have seen are Up and Coraline. (Of course, I will be seeing Avatar, like the rest of the planet, but it seems so strange to have seen NOTHING in the best picture/actor/actress/director categories)

I was made to sit through some movie with time travel, mail boxes and Sandra Bullock. It was just like being raped by a big blue bus.
|
I kinda liked Two Weeks Notice but I think it was mostly because it was slapstick and Hugh Grant was in it...
I remember the trailer for Hope Floats playing before a movie I saw in a packed theater. When the narrator said "Hope Floats" at the end, someone in the crowd yelled, 'So does sh!t.' Ever since then, that movie will forever be Sh!t Floats. |

Sandra Bullock was in one of my favorite movies of all time, and thus she's on my A list. Sadly, I probably won't see either of her movies this year, even though one of them apparently doesn't totally suck.
And I probably won't see Avatar - on principle. Might get sucked into Sherlock Holmes, though. |

Just curious... The Net? Demolition Man? Making Sandwiches? Sh!t Floats? |
Demolition Man!!!

And no Zombieland -- Bastards...
|
It is, indeed, Demolition Man. One of the highlights of my current employment was getting to see where they filmed the Taco Bell scenes.
|
I would have picked Zombieland over The Hangover.
|
It would be a tough thing but I think I'd take The Hangover by a hair over Zombieland. Zombieland deserves to be punished for undercutting itself at the end.
But take Zombieland over any of the other nominees I've seen. |

Man, though, it's so weird to not have seen as many movies as we usually see by this point. It's been one of those years. We have some catching up to do, for certain. Of the released nominees, we've only seen... Precious Up in the Air An Education (500) Days of Summer The Hangover Julie & Julia The Proposal Duplicity The Informant Coraline The Fantastic Mr. Fox Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs Up District 9 Where the Wild Things Are We've usually seen twice that many nominees by mid-December. Oy, vey, January is going to hurt. |
I've seen Up. That I haven't seen many movies this year is not necessarily unusual. What has changed is that I haven't even heard of many of them. Frankly, I put it down to the fact that we cancelled home delivery of our newspaper. It used to be easy on Wednesday or Friday to glance at the arts section and see what movies had come out that I probably wouldn't get to. I have not developed an online replacement for this behavior. I guess I need to.
I'm probably also behind on who's dead. |
