stephalopuff asked: I believe I missed the beginning of Jackman's intro because of my damned digital antenna's crappy service in my apartment at that time, I'll need to look it up for a refresher. I remember when Hathaway joined in, let's hope she does a musical or Broadway if she hasn't already. Having seen Franco at the Milk premiere here in Portland, I'd be relatively pressed to say...
filmstudiesandshenanigans asked: I think the backlash to the True Grit epilogue is because it's very true to the book, and like a lot of Coen Bros films, it ends somewhat abruptly. People reject that. They bitched endlessly about No Country For Old Men's non-ending, whereas I think it's one of the top five greatest endings to a film ever. People want things wrapped up in an epic shootout, a grandiose, sappy way, or...

iwanttobelikearollingstone asked: I thought that Darren Aronofsky never really received the right amount of recognition for Black Swan. The enticing handheld direction, combined with the beautiful set design, gave the film such a natural feel to it--despite the supernatural elements that surrounded it. Perhaps he was overshadowed by Portman's performance but I think that Aronofsky is one of the select directors today, that...
filmstudiesandshenanigans asked: More me speaking an opinion than anything, but much as I love Deakins, Wally Pfister winning Best Cinematography for Inception is my absolute favorite Oscar win of the year. His lensing in that film is Children of Men-level groundbreaking work. That he shot it all on 35mm and captured all the effects in-camera, including the slow-motion, etc is incredible. I love the beautiful look of True Grit,...
stephalopuff asked: I just realized I kind of went at my own opinion instead of asking an actual question, I apologize!
What did you think of the auto-tuned segment of the Oscars show?
What did you think of the auto-tuned segment of the Oscars show?
stephalopuff asked: How do you feel the Oscars ceremony of 2011 compared to those of the last 5 or so? I personally felt like James Franco and Anne Hathaway are adorable and charismatic in their own respectable ways but as hosts of the show, perhaps the way that they presented their dialogue, fell relatively flat? For me, it was the montages that kind of held everything together instead of the hosts' jokes and...

So, when someone says lol The Wolfman has an Oscar and Winter’s Bone doesn’t! Or Alice in Wonderland?! but that movie sux!
It’s like, okay, but those movies didn’t win Best Picture. If you don’t think Rick Baker’s astonishing work on The Wolfman didn’t deserve to win, you can kindly get the fuck out of this blog. I know maybe a lot of people didn’t...

I’d like to thank my parents, my agent, my Lord and Kermit JesusBale…OH MY GOSH, WHO ELSE. Of course, I’d like to thank The Academy for bestowing upon me this wonderful honor. I am truly humbled.
And I’d like to thank YOU. Those wonderful people out there in the dark…Alright, Mr. DeMille, I’m ready for my close-up.

br0manpolanski asked: I'm not even going to try and defend myself at this point. You are very correct and I am very hot headed and there will probably a lot of holes in my argument and I apologize but I'm just really emotional.
