We're on Jurassic Park 4, sir. FOUR!

Yeah, Munich was the definition of mediocre oscar trash.

Van Cruncheon · « **Reply #303 on:** February 26, 2007, 04:06:35 PM »

oooh, Capote, definitely. PSH

Capote
Good Night and Good Luck
Munich
Brokeback Mountain
Crash

In that order. Yes, I hated Crash so much I rated it lower than a movie based on an Annie Proulx novel. Mandark will testify: that's something.

Brokeback Mountain may be the worst, most overrated film I have watched in the last few years.

Brokeback sucked worse than Crash. Better of the two evils.

Much rather seen Munich when just because its Spielberg or Good Night and Good Luck cause I liked it. I am biased though I tend to like any drama's that are about politics. I even liked Nixon by Oliver Stone.

Dude, I'll totally load the gun for you.

Nah, BBM at least had good acting. Take away the sobby gay cowboy shit and you're still left with competent acting and middling cinematography. Crash didn't even have that.

Van Cruncheon · « **Reply #310 on:** February 26, 2007, 04:11:22 PM »

At least I'll die never having seen The Departed or Borat, which I consider moral victories certain to ensure nasty dumpster sex with 40 virgins in the heaven of my choice

The Miles Trahan Burger Experiment · « **Reply #311 on:** February 26, 2007, 04:12:04 PM »

Competetant acting? Dude, Brokeback had saturday morning telenovella acting at best. And Crash was shot much better than Brokeback. I'd rather watch interesting use of light and a handful of complex shots than static images of horses hopping around for five minutes.

Crash had decent acting, Crash's problem wasn't the acting. Brokeback had BAAAD acting. "I CANT QUIT YOU" is star wars prequel worthy.

Crash's problem is that it was much better when it was Short Cuts or Magnolia.

And didn't make every character a symbol of racism and oppression.

Van Cruncheon · « **Reply #318 on:** February 26, 2007, 04:20:21 PM »

you bitches are moaning about DIALOGUE, not ACTING. Any dialogue that comes from an Annie Proulx novel, even second-hand, is gonna make your gut spasm. BBM had good blocking, delivery, articulation, and body language -- sure, Crash's two-dimensional acting may have suited its 2D vignette characters, but don't confuse the delivery of Haggis-penned bombast with good acting anymore than you might confuse Proulx' miserable lines with the bad variety.

Heath Ledger's best movie is the vastly under-rated "A Knight's Tale" so fuck Brokeback Mountain

The Miles Trahan Burger Experiment · « **Reply #320 on:** February 26, 2007, 04:21:22 PM »

No, the delivery of those lines sucked too.

Bloodwake · « **Reply #321 on:** February 26, 2007, 04:22:05 PM »

For me, personally:

Crash
Good Night and Good Luck (though I will admit I need to rewatch both, they were both decent,and I loved GNaGL on first viewing)
Capote
Brokeback Mountain
Munich.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #322 on:** February 26, 2007, 08:05:30 PM »

I really want to see Crash, Munich, and Good Night Good Luck.

TakingBackSunday · « **Reply #323 on:** February 26, 2007, 08:22:25 PM »

Good Night and Good Luck

Was Eddie Murphy pissed because of last night's loss for Best Supporting Actor in Dreamgirls? A couple media folks who were at last night's Oscars say Eddie looked a bit heated when he lost and definitely got up and left the show after his category was announced. Damn Eddie. Maybe it wasn't a good idea to release Norbit ads during Oscar voting time like your producers advised you not to. Oh well...

Is this true?
