How is Quvenzhané pronounced?
kwa-VAHN-zhe-nay seems to be Google's consensus.
River: You're not right, Early. You're not righteous. You've got issues. Early: No. Oh, yes, I could have that. You might have me figured out, then. Good job. I'm not 100%.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
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.

Hey. New board.
I did think it was surprising that Zero Dark Thirty got nominated for Picture, for Screenplay, for Editing, and for Actress
Really? EW seemed to think Bigelow was a lock for that nom. I haven't seen it, but it seems like the kind of movie that would be.

Hey. New board.
Cereal to add that Argo also didn't get a directing nod, which I find surprising. That's a movie that I really loved that I think hinged almost entirely on direction.

Do they have fewer slots for Director than for Best Picture?

Do they have fewer slots for Director than for Best Picture?
Yes. Best picture can go up to 10 now, but the other categories are still 5 (or can be less in some categories).

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Which I find ridiculous, btw. I see no reason to have 10 noms for BP and still keep the other major categories at 5-6. I think we can still have 5-6 BP noms.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think BP wins Most Popular. It's probably the Oscar that people who don't pay attention pay attention to, so they lavish all this on it.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Chris Nolan is going hard scifi with his next movie Interstellar.
The story involves time travel and alternate dimensions and sees a group of explorers travel through a wormhole. The script is based on scientific theories developed by Kip Thorne, a theoretical physicist, gravitational physicist and astrophysicist at Caltech.
Where do I buy my ticket?

Anyone heard anything about this movie Wrong? I'm intrigued.
