I liked how the music was used in Moulin Rouge - it was all about excess, just throwing everything possible at the screen, and in my opinion, it worked. Worked well. Just a snippet of Smells Like...

I don't think the adaptation was bad at all. I just enjoyed Ghost World much more than I enjoyed LOTR, and it seems like LOTR is a shoo-in for that award. I want the underdog to win it. Don't get me...

I think two are guaranteed for picture: A Beautiful Mind and Lord of the Rings. Both are quality movies, I'd say - no complaints, I mean they could have chosen something like Life as a House. Still,...

I have one prediction to make, and I'm fairly confident of it:

Sean Penn will win Best Actor for I Am Sam.

He's never won, and he plays a retard. 1 + 1 = 2.

...Of course, I could very well...

Martin Landau deserved that award, and Sam Jackson should have been nominated for leading actor instead of supporting actor. How messed up is that, he has more screen time than John Travolta and they...

Bullsh-t. Mulholland Drive was NOTHING BUT symbolism (not to mention, the non-linear story), and you loved that. And if the only reason you liked Amelie is because it was straightforward, then you're...

I agree. There's no doubt in my mind they could have made Hogwarts castle look just like one of the countless castles throughout Great Britain and Scotland, but that isn't the point. It's supposed to...

I second A.I. for visual effects. You show me a movie that can put New York City underwater, and I'll show you a movie that deserves that award. Planet of the Apes deserves makeup, not visual, I'd...

Amen, amen, and amen. :) One could even argue that those movies are the best of their respective decades.

I wish the academy would pull its head out of its a-s, and give Emma Thompson a...

Amen to that. I wish all the money they spent on Pearl Harbor was given to the Red Cross.

I think Mulholland Drive and Waking Life should be up for picture, but neither of them will get noms. I...
