Recently i saw Rubber..
it was okay, but a little too much on the same subject.. would've been a lot better if it was just a short. Amazing concept nonetheless.
i'm not linking to a trailer because if you watch one you saw everything in the movie..
basically it's about a tire that comes to life and it

Rubber, eh? I've not heard of it. Is it one of these crazy European movies that will cross the Atlantic in about 6 months or so?

I know it can be difficult for foreign cinema to make a name for itself in the United States because we are all too consumed by wonderfully artistic works like Gnomeo and Juliet.

Hey, kids! The Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences Is hosting it's annual awards gala tonight. Any predictions for a Best Picture Oscar? The easy money is on The King's Speech, but true to form the Academy may go with a dark horse again this year. What do you think?

Agreed. But the Academy has done some surprising things before. Still, the fact that it won Best Animated Feature is probably not a good sign.

And BTW, if anyone is watching: Melissa Leo's acceptance speech for Best Supporting actress was classic.

I only have a computer monitor that I hook up to rabbit ears for special events, like the Oscars. I'm a geek like that, I guess.

And you're right - some fool has already posted the clip on YouTube:

*sigh*
banksy didn't win :(
even though I didn't see the other documentaries, I'm still bummed that banksy didn't get a chance to do something crazy.
and I think there really weren't any surprise winners. kinda boring if you ask me :|

Pronouns: Well it shouldn't really be that complicated if you go over my post history but then... why are you searching through my post history? Don't you think you are over complicating something as simple as just referring to me? Why are you like this? Is it just out of boredom? Does your religion require it? You could just assume them and skip all this paragraph, don't worry an eldritch horror won't appear out of nowhere to eat you (or me for that matter) if you get this wrong, the worst that can happen is I ignore you and even in that case you can try again! There shouldn't be that many options anyway so if you get it wrong the first time try again and again. Bottom line is: you just lost a bunch of time reading this paragraph for something as trivial as figuring out how to refer to me when you could just have deduced it which should make you think your life choices so far.

I didn't know that movie existed until I heard that was nominated... :?

Inceptions was an amazing movie from last year, it should have won more prices...

For me it's just the whole bit about a important political figure combined with a word implying that he's going to make some long, boring speech.
