And The Oscar Goes To......

[Deleted]

Agreed. He didn't deserve the Oscar for TKS (nor did it deserve any of the other Oscars it won save for Best Actor,) and he doesn't deserve any kudos for Les Mis. I enjoyed the movie in spite of his direction. I loves me some Hugh Jackman but I don't need to be able to count his pores.

Bit surprised that David O Russell or Quentin Tarintino didn't get DGA nods. I can't believe Tom Hooper got one either. I liked Les Mis but the direction was terrible.

I'd say The Master's chances are almost gone now save Amy Adams. I'm sad that Looper isn't in the conversation more. It will probably get a screenwriting nomination but I wish it could sneak in some other categories.

I think maybe The Master opened too early because it has completely dropped off the radar. I'

I think Phillip Seymour Hoffman has a shot, the Academy seems to like him. He got that out-of-nowhere nomination for Charlie Wilson's War a few years ago.

Cotillard's nom was for Rust & Bone, right? The list has her for ZDT.

I also can't wait for Oscar noms. I just want to know who's going to be nominated already, dangit.

I know! I need to know which movies I have to catch up on, like if I have to subject myself to Helen Hunt or not. These are the important questions.

I'm guessing the erroneous title entry for Cotillard was the result of a copy/paste mistake somewhere.

The only one of these I saw was Streisand in The Guilt Trip and she was just being a very Jewish Momma version of herself!

And was Battleship really that bad? It just looks so typical-big-dumb-Summer-Movie.

I didn't think it was that bad, it really was just a typical dumb summer action movie. Personally I'm hoping that awful Adam Sandler movie sweeps it.

...and the People's Choice Awards are tonight on CBS, possibly right this very second on the East Coast. Will it be Britney or J. Lo for Favorite Judge?
