    For Best Picture I was either for that or Avatar. Up in the Air has a very strong plot and acting, but then Avatar had the really awesome effects. In the end it depends on which factor go more strongly into the concept of "best picture".
    Of course, the person from Cornell had no idea what they were doing.

    Agreed on the acting. It was great. I really like Anna Kendrick, even though she is from Maine and is affiliated with Twilight. Hopefully she continues to be good in other roles.

      Saw the Hurt Locker yesterday, good flick, just kinda wished they had used a few more steady cam shots when they were all running around. Its an usefull tool to have, but you don't have to beat us over the head with the cameraman all running around.

      Did love the scene there where he's coming back onto base and gives them his explanation for being outside.

      It just happens.

        Last time I flew out of Detroit Metro, they were setting up a scene at the gate right next to mine for that movie. Unfortunately, George Clooney wasn't scheduled to arrive on set until just after my flight was supposed to take off.

          My parents good friends were at St. Louis when they were doing their scenes there. They took some pictures, but weren't allowed to get terribly close, obviously.

          "Didn't you ever wonder why it was called the Sprit of St. Louis?"

          "No."

            They might've locked things down more after I left, but the only thing blocked off while I was there was the moving walkway, and even that was probably just so people wouldn't be walking directly in front of a camera that they were trying to get calibrated.

              Sure, but she was good at it though!

              Yeah, I was most impressed by her, odd that the only other thing she had done was Emo Sparkly Vampires.

                I really had no interest in any Ironman movie until I just saw a preview for Ironman 2. Scarlett Johansson. WOW.

                  Inglourious Basterds (Tarantino):

                  Awesome. Even the subtleties (like when the German soldier is trying to hit on the French Jew). "Hey this guy might be attractive, except for the whole trying to exterminate my people."

                  Well done, and a bit different than other Tarantino movies.


                  Boondock Saints II: Disappointing. It was okay and all. However, I think they tried too hard to capture the "magic" of the first one, and added twists and turns just to add twists and turns. d
                  Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

                    After acting on a hunch, Romeo in Boondocks II is Tack from The Stoned Age! I *ing KNEW IT!!!!! That's hilarious on so many levels.

                        Pretty much my thoughts as well. Forced it almost the whole movie and made it painful to watch.

                        Awful acting too.

                          Like it was Oscar acting in the first one....

                              Is that the Gene Rayburn movie? That sounded like a really strange concept piece.

                                It is the movie about Chuck Barris, the guy who made The Dating Game, Newlywed Game and Gong Show. It is based on his book where he claims he was a CIA assassin while making those shows.

                                Seriously...terrible.
