Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted May 8, 2013 Founder / Operator Share Posted May 8, 2013 We agree on a lot of things red, but this is one time I absolutely can't back you up. I'm not even the biggest fan of the ferry scene, and I still think it should have been nominated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dementeleus Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Once again, I disagree with you but you articulate your feelings very well. Dick. How can you disagree with me when you haven't read the book, muchacho? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 WALL-E for Best Picture in 2008. That's movie's a goddamn masterpiece. For me 2008 will always be the year that the two best pictures (TDK and Wall-E) didn't even get nominated. What a joke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Except it's not Benjamin Button easily deserved best pic and director HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Good jokes, Andrew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted May 8, 2013 Founder / Operator Share Posted May 8, 2013 I'll agree The Reader shouldn't have gotten that spot, but TDK didn't deserve it either. The real snub IMHO was Nolan with Inception. At that point it started to feel like they were snubbing the guy because of jealousy or whatever. That, I'll agree with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ladyevenstar22 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 (edited) my list too: 1- iron man 2- the avengers 3-iron man 3 4-iron man 2 5-the dark knight 6- xmen 1 7-spiderman 2 8-the watchmen 9-thor 10-superman II now in my defense i'm not a comic book fanatic, and i watched superhero films more like a GA person and liked them well enough in majority and as much as i admire nolan's batman i don't go bonkers over them! my fav superhero is IRON MAN aka tony stark ...i still remember the day i saw it in 08 i was blown-away and laughed myself silly afterwards thinking this guy is too much , he is so full of himself but such a badass i love it and promptly went to see it again the next day Edited May 8, 2013 by ladyevenstar22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 I loved that TIME named WALL-E their movie of the decade (2000-2009). :wub: 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 I love Fincher but I think he applies the same tone to every project even if the material doesn't suit it. I think he was the wrong guy to direct Benjamin Button, plain and simple. I'd say someone like Robert Zemekis needed to direct that film, but he already made something awfully similar... Pitt and Blanchett are excellent in it, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackspider Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Still haven't watched Benjamin Button. And I'm a big fan of Fincher and Pitt. People always make it seem like it's a chore to watch and that kinda puts me off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's never on TV and I rarely go to rental stores now since Redbox is 100x more convenient. I'll see it eventually, don't worry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jandrew Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 They re-released it in December for and Oscar push. Shouldn't have too. Yeah, its a summer blockbuster, but arguably the best one in years at that. I'm glad Ledger got his nomination though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
