Orogun01 Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 So now that the Oscars are done is time for discussion. Opinions on the winners and loser. Who should had won? Who should had lost? and why was George Clooney so sour? I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you.
I want teh kotor 3 Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 I think Inglorious Bastards should have won everything it was nominated for (and even stuff it wasn't) and that Brad Pitt deserves an Oscar for his role. In 7th grade, I teach the students how Chuck Norris took down the Roman Empire, so it is good that you are starting early on this curriculum. R.I.P. KOTOR 2003-2008 KILLED BY THOSE GREEDY MONEY-HOARDING ************* AND THEIR *****-*** MMOS
Orogun01 Posted March 8, 2010 Author Posted March 8, 2010 I think Inglorious Bastards should have won everything it was nominated for (and even stuff it wasn't) and that Brad Pitt deserves an Oscar for his role. The Hurt Locker did and IMO it was a better movie. Not to say that Inglorious Basterds wasn't great, but from a technical standpoint the Hurt Locker awards were well deserved. Christoph Waltz was excellent on that movie though, he stole the spotlight from everyone else.

Beast Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 I think District 9 should have won Best Picture. Considering how good the movie was for it's budget. Alpha Protocol = Best game ever created!!! EVER!!! Can't wait!!! :D AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!!!
Pidesco Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 Nice that Avatar didn't win. "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian tourist I am Dan Quayle of the Romans. I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands. Heja Sverige!! Everyone should cuffawkle more. The wrench is your friend.
Meshugger Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 Finally Jeff Bridges won an Oscar. He should've won one already way back when he did The Big Lebowsky. I haven't seen this movie though "Some men see things as they are and say why?""I dream things that never were and say why not?"- George Bernard Shaw"Hope in reality is the worst of all evils because it prolongs the torments of man."- Friedrich Nietzsche "The amount of energy necessary to refute bull**** is an order of magnitude bigger than to produce it." - Some guy
Walsingham Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 I think District 9 should have won Best Picture. Considering how good the movie was for it's budget. I really liked district 9 and am to but it when I have some spare cash. But the last part of the film was utterly without any content besides flying bullets. Which was a real shame considering how nuanced I felt the first part was. "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.
Volourn Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 "Nice that Avatar didn't win." I'm no fan of Avatar, but it already won where it counts the most. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
Pidesco Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 "Nice that Avatar didn't win." I'm no fan of Avatar, but it already won where it counts the most. I'm not, in any way, contesting that.

Purkake Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 Nice that Avatar didn't win. Totally agree, a fun romp, but Cameron should try harder.
Pidesco Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 Actually, I don't agree there. Cameron achieved exactly what he wanted. Ridiculous amounts of money, that is.

Pidesco Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 He wouldn't mind it, of course, but it was just an extra. He has a couple already.

Orogun01 Posted March 8, 2010 Author Posted March 8, 2010 Wouldn't had won even if he wanted to. This year's Oscar theme was "first time winners" I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you.
Purkake Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 (edited) He wouldn't mind it, of course, but it was just an extra. He has a couple already. How the mighty have fallen... No ambition, no passion, just cold cold 3D. Edited March 8, 2010 by Purkake
Beast Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 I'm sure James Cameron is happier than any of those people who did win the oscar because has like a zazillion dollars!!! Alpha Protocol = Best game ever created!!! EVER!!! Can't wait!!! :D AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!!!
Beast Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 No... he use to have only a bazillion.....now he has a zazillion! There's a difference! Alpha Protocol = Best game ever created!!! EVER!!! Can't wait!!! :D AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!!!
Purkake Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 Bah, if I were an artist I'd want more recognition of my work not even more money. Guess he's just a hack now.
Beast Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 If I was a movie director, I'd want to make a decent amount of money, not a crap load. And also get good recognition. Alpha Protocol = Best game ever created!!! EVER!!! Can't wait!!! :D AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!!!
Pidesco Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 The Oscar isn't exactly the most respected award in the industry. Avatar not winning the big Oscars doesn't look bad for James Cameron, rather it looks well for the Academy. Low standards and all that.

Pidesco Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 These would be the obvious ones: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Bear http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Lion http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palme_d%27Or "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian tourist I am Dan Quayle of the Romans.

Beast Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 Interesting......most interesting indeed.... Alpha Protocol = Best game ever created!!! EVER!!! Can't wait!!! :D AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!!!
