[Jake Gittes]

This is a rather amazing credits sequence, though its a riff on The Graduate.

 

Love that song. Gets you into the mood of the movie right away, too.

Oh yeah, its an amazing song. One of the best ever movie songs, imo.

[fishstick]

Inglorious Basterds is his classiest, grandest and most stylish movie. Its absolutely beautifully shot and put together, and its just kinda glamorous.

 

Especially Shoshanna applying make-up to the sound of Cat People.

That scene is orgasmic to say the least

That’s a total misread. I have never ever ever ever ever said I hatedJennifer Lawrence. I have always loved her. I think she rescues almostevery movie she’s in: Like Crazy, The Beaver, and yes, Silver Linings. Idon’t like the character as written. Tiffany and JL deserved better.

WTF? That woman flip-flops worse than Romney. 

[The Futurist]

She never said literally she hated Jlaw but she made a lof commets implying it was the case.

 

I guess she hates when a woman allows herself to feel sexy and confident in her own skin.

 

She prefers the Maya,stuborn CIA analyst bureaucrat, the"I am the motherfucker who found the house" badass girl with more balls than the whole Expendables cast.

 

I am talking about characters here, not the actresses portraying them.

I love Jennifer Lawrence and Tiffany isn't a compelling character. But I'll shut up about it because apparently everyone disagrees with me.

I agree. She never said it out loud that she hates JLaw, but it's pretty clear that she does.

Crone is full of shit. She says Lincoln campaign is "quiet". :rofl: :rofl:

Now that I think about it, Denzel is pretty much in every scene of Flight, kinda like how Dude is virtually in every scene of Lebowski. Also Waltz seemed to have more screentime than Foxx.

 

Fucking Arkin..

Shit! I sat through 2 hours of Lincoln without DDL?

[Heretic]

Well, I just watched ZDT and I sincerely hope Jessica Chastain wins best actress.

[Jack Nevada]

Luckily the rest of the characters were even better than Abe

You sho find other people's opinions hilarious

[ecstasy]

So good Tarentino had to use it again.

[Jack Nevada]

ZDT isn't coming to my town after all, so in an act of desperation I downloaded it. Seeing a free screening of Silver Linings tomorrow

[Jack Nevada]

BTW Lincoln still leading the poll, much to the chagrin of ascs1312 I believe.
