I listen for him to sound like Rocket Raccoon.
No, I do.

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.

It's Bradley Cooper--as you've never seen him before.
Yeah, I thought GotG was Bradley Cooper as we've never seen him before. In American Sniper he plays a human dude and he doesn't even have superpowers. Whatever.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
I have seen more movies nominated for Best Visual Effects(3) than for Best Film(1).
Given my taste in movies, this isn't really surprising.

Well, apparently the only category with women in it is Costume Design, surprise, surprise.
Actually there are a number of women nominated as producers in the Best Picture category, also in Documentary Feature, and scattered in the minor categories. And then Sandra Adair for editing Boyhood.
That's not enough, of course, but it's not just costumes.

He does have a gun, though. Like in GotG. WHICH I'VE ALREADY SEEN.

Ditto the Lego Movie.
I feel less bad about this snub because Tale of Princess Kayuga was far and away the best movie I saw all year.
(But um...nobody on this board should watch it for a while, probably. It's not going to cheer you up.)

I am appalled right alongside JZ that Fiennes' name isn't up there. COME THE FUCK ON DID YOU EVEN WATCH THE MOVIE ACADEMY.
Seriously. Did the movie get any nominations (haven't had time to check the list yet)?

Frank, it tied with Birdman for most nominations with 9.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm pretty psyched Last Days In Vietnam got a nomination for best documentary. It's pretty amazing. It's an amazing story, but the footage is fucking incredible. I think it's because it's right at the cusp of feeling like "history," but there's a ton of color footage, etc., so watching it feels really immediate. (Save for some of the styles!)
