CoolioD1 Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Why the fuuuuuuuuck doesn't Ides of March have more buzz? That's an incredible movie right there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It got good but not stellar reviews, so its buzz has mostly fizzled as November came and went. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acsc1312 Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Hugo all the way!! It better get a nom here. I don't expect a win at all, but it deserves recognition. I do agree that Ides of March was really good. I wish it would get some acting noms too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acsc1312 Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 (edited) And my guesses as of now: As close of a lock as you can get: War Horse The Artist The Descendants Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close Probably in there somewhere: Hugo The Help Midnight in Paris (though I think it'll just miss out) TGWTDT (might jump up to near lock once I see it) Moneyball Tinker Tailor DH2 (lower in this category) I really wish Win Win were in contention here. Until I saw Hugo, it was my favorite movie of the year. I hope it's remembered somewhere in the mix.

CoolioD1 Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Why is EL&IC a near lock. It's weird that noone has seen it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acsc1312 Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Ides of March > Hugo Almost. March had some (few) moments that I just sat there wishing they left out. It is probably my favorite political movie, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ragarding Hugo, don't you think that - Hugo should've told Georges that was his dead dad's notebook straight away. What's the point of keeping it secret?

What's the point of keeping it secret? Well I think it was so special to Hugo that he didn't want it to be lost. Plus it added anticipation of what Georges would do with it.

If it was so special I think he would've expained to georges why he needed it so badly. i doubt he would've burnt it if he'd known. Lazy way to create anticipation imo. Still, the rest of the film, especially when it concentrates more on Georges is magical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockNrollaDIM Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Why the fuuuuuuuuck doesn't Ides of March have more buzz? That's an incredible movie right there. Eh. That movie was ok, it was entertaining enough and interesting for somebody who follows politics, but it left me cold. It felt too small in scope, unimportant, implausible... The ending was rushed. Michael Clayton was the much better George Clooney politico-ethical movie... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
