Award Season 2007!

[LSPoorEeyorick]

On the other hand, I only have two movies to see (of the movie winners last night.) Into the Wild and Away From Her.

By the way, Juno did not win for screenplay - only No Country For Old Men did.

And I haven't even read the book .... but I can't believe that film won for Best Picture. Gak.

Well, the book was really wonderful! I am very glad i didn't have any insight to the story ending before I read it. I think it probably would've been a completely different read for me.

[innerSpaceman]

That's true. And now you'll have that insight for the movie ... which may very well make it better.


Not by any means a bad film, imo ... but the hype is really too much. And Best Picture??? Pulease!

To follow up on GC (Quick Draw McGraw you are)

Full list of Oscar Noms are here

I also like the official Oscar Poster for this year, too. For a change!

[Alex]

Yay, something meaty we can argue about.

I hate the Oscar poster. It looks like someone with just enough Photoshop skills to get in trouble was let loose on it.

Surprising love for Michael Clayton. Day-Lewis was so over the top in the final act of There Will Be Blood that I'm tempted to give my nod to Clooney in Michael Clayton but everything up to that point was phenomenal so I'll stick with Day-Lewis for now.

Bardem all the way for best Supporting (though I'd say he's really the lead).

I've only seen one of the lead actress performances.

Amy Ryan seems a lock for best supporting actress but I also liked Swinton in Michael Clayton.

Ratatouille is way better than Surf's Up but I haven't seen Persepolis which is reportedly phenomenal.

Haven't seen Diving Bell but among the other four the director nod goes handily to the Coen Brothers.

And No Country again for best picture (haven't seen Atonement yet).

No quick responses on the screenplay nods.

I dunno, I like it. I also like the 1976 poster. I keep haunting ebay for a few of the Cannes posters from a few years back, no luck at all on those and that surprises (and annoys) me. ymmv.
