[takeshi]

[lifeforce]

Cloud Atlas 9/10 awesome ! Now to read the book

[Guest isaki]

congrats to Christoph Waltz on his oscar win for his part in Django

[lumpenprol]

unlike Inglorious, where I thought he deserved it, I didn't particularly like him in Django. Not sure the role, or him, belonged in the movie. Hate to say it but I think he's a bit overrated (anyone seen that Polanski flick he's in...Carnage? I could only watch about 20 mins of it.)

 

Also: Sam Jackson should've been nominated. He did a great job imo.

Berberian Sound Studio really is fantastic. Multiple viewings recommended. There is a really cool fugue state thing goin on up in dis bitch

[Guest zaphod]

how is sam jackson not nominated? seems crazy, that was easily the best thing he's done.

 

can't believe roger deakins didn't get an award. ridiculous. skyfall was a shitty movie elevated to ownable based purely on the cinematography. instead life of pi, which looks like a windows 95 wallpaper, wins.

[Guest zaphod]

yeah it's terrible. i mean, i know, i'm saying that, but it really is terrible.

[Schlitze]

Waltze overpowered by his onscreen wife Kate Wlnslet. That was actually a sweet butt film, lol,Jodie Foster and JC Reilly had chemistry. An acting thing i guess

[Schlitze]

Toby Jones was overlooked for best actor. I haven't seen a fugue state carried off with such class since Bill Pullman shared a cell with Henry Rollins.

[cruising for burgers]

i liked carnage quite a bit, but i also love the office series so...

 

just watched life of pi, really don't understand how this gets best cinematography...

I should try to finish it. I just couldn't get over how staged it all felt. It's like Polanski just got together 4 friends of his to make a movie, there doesn't seem to be any particular reason they were chosen for their roles, and the dialogue was terribly artificial and awkward. Maybe it gets better if you allow yourself to get comfortable with the artificial dialogue, the way some Mamet does...

lol

what was that reaction about???

[syd syside]

I'm not entirely sure, didnt watch it.. but I imagine its for when he was announced for best actor nominations and everyone knew DDL is gonna win even though he gave a much more impressive performance (at least his best yet).

[Guest isaki]
