SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE > SPR
Maybe if Saving Private Ryan had remained a good film after the D-Day sequence it would have deserved to win. Besides The Thin Red Line was much better than it. |

...is argumentatively (I'm expecting it - hit me now or never) the best movie of the year. Wanted, IMO, is next. Dark Knight will get awards - and Heath better bloody get one - but it is by no means the "best" movie. Little substance - kind of like reading a Maxim magazine - lots of action. Joker will live on, as, no doubt, will Two-Face (underestimated performance) but as far as movies defining an age or having lasting power? Not happening. Sorry to rip your capes off so cruely |

As much as I sometimes wish I could rewrite the Oscars, it kind of feels futile, as many of th emore infamous ones like "Shakespeare in Love" and "Dances With Wolves" don't piss me off nearly as much as some. (Shakespeare wasn't great, but I had problems with "Saving Private Ryan" portraying all Nazis as evil when it's supposed to be some even-handed war-is-hell type thing like "Platoon" was for Vietnam)"
What the hell? Did you mean Germans (who, let be honest, were massively behind Third Reich) or Nazis? The nice folks did not become National Socialists in the Hitler's Germany. Or you want to re-write history? What's that non-sense about even?
As for Vietnam - do I have to accept Oliver's Stone's bullshit about that war? We know his pro-leftists point of view and I more agree with JFK. That war was about stopping worldwide Soviet expansion. Nothing even about it.

No, actually, Wall-E is the better movie. People are so in love with TDK it isn't even funny. It's so sad to see Wall-E left out to rot when it is overshadowed by TDK. Wall-E is better than TDK. |

I would change the fact that Return of the King won everything it was nominated for. I loved it, and think it deserved best picture, but maybe not everything else.
I also would've liked to have seen Naomi Watts nominated for King Kong [she pulled off such a convincingly emotional performance considering she was acting against practically nothing] and Marcia Gay Harden for The Mist. She is one of the best and most terrifying villains I've seen.
Dark Knight should a nom for Ledger and cinematography, but definitely not for best picture. |

Wall-E, for one, was better than 'The Dark Knight.'
And I would rather watch 'The Thin Red Line', 'Shakespeare in Love' or 'Elizabeth' (in that order) again before having to sit through anything other than the first half hour of 'Saving Private Ryan'.
And, even if that weren't the case, I wouldn't trade anything for the my-girlfriend-fucked-my-brother/my-mom-b
acked-over-my-puppy look on my Spielberg-fanboy friend's face when Ford opened that envelope and said 'Shakespeare in Love'. That, friends, was worth more than any useless awards. |

The Dark Knight SHOULD very least be nominated for Best Picture.
