Oscars 2009 (For Your Consideration)


Recommended Posts

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.

Jase does it not to be shopped?, she looked awful :laugh:

There is no filter on Photoshop to improve what we saw, she could of been up for best special FX.

she might not look the best...but dont forget that for 70 year old lady she is a real looker :p

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.

Why not?

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.

    • Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 PC case is now 33% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 is currently $109.99 on Amazon, down from its original $164.99 list price. That's 33% off and $55 saved on this premium aluminum mid-tower case with a modular design. If you're upgrading your PC case and want something that doesn't force you into a rigid layout, the MasterFrame 600 is worth a look. The case is built around the Cooler Master's FreeForm 2.0 platform, which lets you reconfigure the internal structure according to your hardware. Magnetic side panels allow for straightforward adjustments, and the case supports everything from Mini-ITX to E-ATX motherboards without compromise. There's also generous cooling headroom. Four pre-installed PWM fans handle airflow out of the box. GPU clearance goes up to 410mm, and the case supports radiators up to 420mm with room for three simultaneously. Truth be told, this might not be the prettiest case on the market, but it’s highly functional. The aluminum construction keeps the whole thing lightweight despite its size, and the finish looks noticeably better than the plastic mid-towers competing at this price point. If you want a serious, flexible case that prioritizes function over flashy aesthetics like RGB lighting, the MasterFrame 600 delivers at a reasonable price.
