I figure someone on this board might enjoy this, who knows. I originally wrote it on a Misc board on a Smashing Pumpkins' forum. Chapter One: From the Window to the Wall (The One Where Mario and Luigi are faced with a Tough Decision!) There was a knock at the front door of the Super Mario Brother’s...

so, what is the most bizarre (for lack of a better word) movie nominated for best pic in your opinion? some other films that were out there in their style (though this does not equal good): MOULIN ROUGE THE THIN RED LINE PULP FICTION THE PIANO JFK APOCALYPSE NOW TAXI DRIVER CRIES AND WHISPERS A CLO...

Actually Hirsch is a young actor who has built up a considerable body of impressive work in the last years. The former child actor was memorable in The Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys, The Emperor's Club, The Mudge Boy, The Girl Next Door, Imaginary Heroes, Lords of Dogtown and Alpha Dog. He's far fr...

I actually liked ATHF:MFFT, but I wouldn't expect it touch the category with a 12 foot pole. The animation is too limited and the humor is too outrageous.

I agree with all the predicting of into the wild...even though it had flaws i really fell in love with the film and i can see a lot of voters doing the same. But i don't know if agree with the notion that if the film gets nominated hirsch will have to be nominated. Into the wild is on my best pictu...

Ratatouille
Beowulf
The Simpsons Movie

It looks like it could be a tight race.

I'm not looking foward to the inevitable onslaught of 2008's army of reality shows, but maybe it'll finally tire people of the formula.

And thanks for the welcome :)

How bad would that be if you were the one voted off Survivor instead of PSH?

PSH is an obnoxious, smug actor whom I've never really liked, and I find the conventional opinion that he's "an actor's actor" or "a real actor" boring. It's something people say to make themselves sound more intuitive, or because they think it's cool. I also didn't think there ...

Ok, that makes sense. I was just wondering; my friend and I are working on a screenplay and we planned on getting an agent so we can shop it around whenever we get it perfected and whatnot. That's a different subject in its own though.

How critical was the strike in '88?

I just seen Nightmare Before Christmas in 3-D and it wasn't what I expected. It didn't have the pop off the screen moments or anything like that, but instead it separated the planes and gave the characters more dimension. The movie wasn't filmed for 3-d 15 years ago, so I give it the benefit of the...

So will this affect writers outside of the WGA for better or for worse? You would think producers would start taking more scripts from freelance writers in the mean time, until the strike is settled at least. I was only just born in 1988, so I don't directly know how it affected entertainment at th...

I think it would be interesting to see Juno in the running. The humor slot will probably be taken by Charlie Wilson's War though.

The movie theater was packed when I went to see it earlier today, so I expect it to do well at the box office this weekend. The two leads did not disappoint, and it was great having Denzel and Russell in a movie together. But somehow I found Ridley Scott's direction to be a bit uneven. His leads we...

Assassination of Jesse James is probably the best movie I've seen this year, so far. Into the Wild is a close second.
