RichWS Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 I think the technological achievements of Pi will be more than enough to get Lee in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Gittes Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 I don't think Spielberg is fighting for anything at this point. 93% on RT for Lincoln? He's in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It pains me to say so, but it doesn't have any heat at this point. It's going to have even less in another month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichWS Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 I'm sure one big group will reward it, but I don't think that'll be enough. Many people who see it simply don't get what the big deal is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolioD1 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 I think I'll FINALLY get to see it next week. Oscar contenders are just starting to come over here as I've literally just got back from seeing Argo and SLP comes out same week it does in the US. Should be a fun couple weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
