and the oscar goes to...

[wyndhy]

any predictions on the winners? have you seen the nominated films? what do you think makes a movie, actor, director, etc., worthy of the prestigious oscar? or ain't it all that prestigious?


a list of the nominees (http://www.oscars.org/79academyawards/noms.html)

I feel bad because I have not seen one of the best film nominations. I have Little Miss Sunshine on que and have heard it is fab.

[wyndhy]

we bought it...it is fab!

The Departed really WAS good. You never know which way those things are going to go, though.

[FallenAngel5]

I saw the Departed, Little Miss Sunshine, and Babel and loved them all for different reasons. :) It always seems like the ones I like won't win, though, so who knows.

[Eros]

I watched the Departed last night and absolutely loved it. I put in Babel just a few minutes ago but haven't started watching it yet. I really wanted to see The Queen, but never got a chance.

Felix?

[Neige]

I haven't seen any of the nominated movies.

But I love Cameron Diaz's hair!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pan's Labyrinth is starting to sweep...

[Lilith]

It's the only movie I've seen :D

[Irezumi Kiss]

Wasn't it good? I hope they get more and I hope Volver gets something since it was shut out of the foreign movie slot. It'd be a good leap for original storytelling.

M A Y E R...........

Martin Scorcese & his friends were wonderful. Forest Whitaker made me cry. I missed James Taylor!

[WildIrish]

I got the biggest kick out of Ellen telling Spielberg how to take a good digital picture. :roflmao:

[wyndhy]

*didn't watch a single minute* :p
we did watch the movie garden state...not bad.

[IowaMan]

Didn't see a single second of the Oscars either. Had actually forgotten about it until I saw this thread on Monday. I've had "Little Miss Sunshine" for about a week from Netflix and haven't gotten around to watching it yet. For some reason it was one of those that just didn't feel like a "gotta see it as soon as the DVD gets here" kind of thing. Maybe that will be my entertainment for tonight.

[Lilith]

Well send it in cause its on my que!!!!!

[IowaMan]

Just finished watching "Little Miss Sunshine" and yep, it's a winner. :thumb:
