I watched Slumdog yesterday and I thought although it was good, its not 8 Oscars good. I mean it was predictable and there isn't as much emotional substance as I thought it would be, everyone has high praise for it but when I watched it it was just not to my expectations.

Still shocked that Slumdog won so many, I normally really like Danny Boyle's work, but thought this movie was boring. It was not at all what everyone had hyped it to be. Ah well at least they conceded to public demand and ensured that Heath got his.

Even till now, I just won't want to watch Slumdog Millioniare.. even with all those Acadamy Awards I still refuse to watch it. But the one thing I'm glad is that Heath has his Oscar. Honestly if they did not give it to him, it will be out of disrespect.

I agree, but I'm glad they actually seemed to take the other nominations into account, rather than give it to him just because he died.

This man speaks the truth. It was a Hollywood sugarcoated version of City of God. Good, but conventional and nothing was outstanding. Out of the 5 Best Pics, I've only seen this and Benjamin Button, and I thought Button was more deserving.

Trainspotting is still easily Danny Boyle's best work.

Also High School Musical for Best Picture...WTF?

My daughter hates all that High Street Musical this and that.

She says thats all the 'Chavs' talk about in school.

As for the Oscars, just more 'lime-light' for the drama queens.

      Not sure what country you’re in but in many countries you can absolutely jail the sellers behind businesses… in fact I’d say in most countries you can do that

    • Microsoft Teams is getting a controversial location tracking feature that users may hate

      I hate Slack, but Teams is much worse - maybe they've already optimized it, but it was a huge slog the last time I've checked about half a year ago. I miss my Skype.
