Movie Run

Prior to the Academy Awards (aka Oscars), I made an mild attempt to watch all the films that is nominated for the awards. They call it Oscarian mania. Whatever.

As of 24th February 2007, 12.45pm, I almost made it. Almost.

I made it through only for the Best Motion Picture.










































And the Oscars goes to....
Letters of Iwo Jima..or thats what I think. Basically, the tempo's just nice, plot's nice although they are babbling in Kunichiwa-language and admirable scenes.

As for others, Babel's too slow, The Queen's too monotonous, The Departed has too many fucks (I preferred the Cantonese version actually, esp. the casting), Little Miss Sunshine's pretty but I doubt they give awards to dark comedies.

As of other films that worth mentioning that is part of the nominees in other categories. I recommended these:

Its in Spanish, big possibility for Best Foreign Film.
Originality is its selling point.











One of Leo's greatest characters, tho I really like Djimon Hounsou's performance. I always like bring-to-awareness and almost factual movies. Action-packed is its bonus.











Another with a fresh plot. Clive Owen's good here.

(spoiler)
Julian Moore died too fast tho.
























Both are about magicians. Both are about jealousy. Both are about the drive of love. Both have a lot of competitions in the film. Both plots twist like roller-coasters. Both are good. Obviously.

Nominated films that I looked forward to:
















Oh great...another one jz finishes its download. I jz love the kind and Sharing people out there.
Popcorn's out.

Over.
