Forums - Movies & TV - 2012 Oscar Nominations

Abysmal Year.

Especially the Animated Feature, how laughable.



Around the Network

Warrior deserved a best picture nomination,it's amazing !!! And I thought that DH2 would be a bit more relevant at the Oscars,after the reviews it received.



The Tree Of Life better win Best Picture, that movie was a phenomenal piece of Cinema Mastery.

They really must be trolling, why did they nominate this movie for best picture: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0477302/
and exclude these: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0780504/ and http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1291584/


The Tree Of Life actually got a nod for Best Picture, its a likely underdog to win as well, so I'm super happy with that.



Yay for Monsieur Lazhar! I saw that movie because I live in Quebec, it's THAT amazing, yet simple!

I've yet to see it, but I've seen/heard mixed opinions of it.

It's nothing short of a masterpiece. You better go in with a good background in complex Cinema though, theres an enormous amount of Imagery. In fact when watched theres actually little dialouge, its driven by the imagery itself and in such a profound way its breathtaking. Its a movie that makes you, nothing short of, reflect on life in general. Superb in my book, and I've seen a good number of movies to compare, and I've never seen anything like this which evokes so much emotion and stirs so many thoughts. I highly recommend it!

DH2 was too popular (but James Cameron would like to disagree, I know). Did you see Drive?

I haven't seen Drive,no. I was about the watch it but my friend changed her mind in the last second.



Not too excited anything this year, I agree about Drive though, seeing some nominations for that movie would at least get me a little hyped.



Hurray for "Monsieur Lazhar"! I haven't seen it but it's from Quebec so I'm rooting for it!



Signature goes here!

I haven't seen any of the films up for Best Picture, and half of them I haven't even heard of.

Must have been a shit year for movies. Thank goodness 2012 is looking strong.
