Syriana (if the buzz that's currently being generated stays constant)
I doubt it. I think it'll get Screenplay and maybe Director, but not Picture. (i.e. the "We think this is probably a very good movie but we didn't really understand it" awards.)
This is my boat. They're part of my crew. No one's getting left. Best you get used to that.

Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I'm sure you're right, Jessica. Crash will probably get the "serious issue drama" slot, if Good Night and Good Luck doesn't.

I would SO much rather see GN&GL get nominated than Crash.
North Country had a lot of buzz when it first screened, but it's died down considerably. Memoirs of a Geisha is campaigning like hell, but who knows if the film is actually any good or not.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I was really hoping Junebug would have had more of an impact. It was really very good.

Hey. New board.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Peter Jackson, director of the upcoming King Kong remake, defended the movie's length—three hours and seven minutes—and told SCI FI Wire that it could have been even longer. By contrast, the original 1933 film, which served as the template for Jackson's remake, ran only 100 minutes.
"Three hours," Jackson said with a sigh during a news conference in New York last week. "Ah, the three-hour question. Yes, ... I know. I've got a problem. I feel like I have. No, we thought that movie would be about two hours 10 minutes, two hours 15 [minutes].

That's because the filmmakers are entering uncharted waters of Big Gayness.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
