Topic: The OSCAR chat thread...!! (and predictions) Forum: JoBlo
I'm pretty happy with the results this year. In the Joblo Oscar contest I got 16/24, which is a little disappointing compared to last year's (I had 17/24). However there is one thing that I wasn't happy about the show and I need to get this of my chest.... What. The. Fuck. I mean seriously What The FUCK!!! Not only did they piss me off for not nominating The Simpsons Movie (5/5) for Best Animated Film but they had to piss me off even more by doing this! How in the hell did the special effects in The Golden Compass (3/5) beat out the far more impressive and awe-inspiring CGI work of Transformers (4.5/5)? Don't get me wrong the effects in Compass were really good but at the same I didn't think that they were that outstanding. To me Transformers is one of the few films of the last few years that I didn't think of the word "CGI" as I was watching it, they were so realistic that I was 98% convinced that they were actual living, breathing giant robots. I don't think I have ever been so pissed with the Academy since decided to give 1998 Best Picture Oscar to the overrated Shakespeare in Love (3.5/5) over the FAR superior Saving Private Ryan (5/5) (yes I am serious by saying that). They better make it up for it at the 2009 Oscars when the sequel comes out (just like did with Spider-Man 2 and Pirates 2 previously). This to me WAS the true shocker of the night hands down! P.S. Now just to make matters worse for me I came 286 in the Joblo Oscar poll, which is sad 'cause I ranked 49 last year *sniff*.
