    LINCOLN OR ARGO? I CAN'T DECIDE
    ARGO IS ABOUT HOLLYWOOD CHANGING THE WORLD
    BUT LINCOLN IS A JINGOISTIC PIECE OF SHIT BY STEPHEN SPIELBERG
    WHICH WILL IT BE

    You're right, that's a really tough call! For them.

    Which should it be? I can never remember what all came out in a given year. I saw American Gigolo this year. That was great.

    I feel like Argo I would be comfortable with. I found it very delightful and well done. Kind of funny in a satisfying way to think of it being dubbed THE GREATEST MOVIE MADE THIS YEAR
    Django is probably the one of them I've seen that I actually loved the most
    My gut says it will be Lincoln, which is barfy. Is it less barfy than Life of Pi? That is a tough one. I would literally never watch Life of Pi under any but the direst of circumstances (airplane with no reading material; husband being held hostage until I watch it; or the like), whereas I would pretty gladly watch Lincoln if it didn't involve paying any money. I think Lincoln would be more fun to watch and make fun of, but does that mean it is more or less barfy?
    subtle distinctions

    I'm thinking about the Hollywood Theater for Oscar watching. Last year I went to a really fun Pizza Party. Is there a betting pool?
  • UncleBoatShoes2011UncleBoatShoes2011
    Why wouldn't you watch Life of Pi? Ang Lee has made cool movies!

    I think Les Miz or Silver Lining's P-book have a good chance to win too.
  • LucyLucy
    I just want Quvenzhané Wallis to become the youngest best actress ever! Beasts of the Southern Wild was amazing!
  • 12341234
    We should kidnap Gary until she watches Life of Pi.

  • MirandaJulyMirandaJuly
    Can we have a "back channel" chat on UHX about the I Saw That liveblog?
  • YoursTrulyYoursTruly
    the oscars are truly horrible

    i like the back channel liveblog live chat idea

    I saw 4 new movies last year.
    The Master (which i saw mostly because i like 70mm)
    Sleepwalk With Me (which I saw because i hoped it would have jokes about Walla Walla)
    Hobbit (which i saw mostly for the 48 fps)
    Batman (which i saw mostly for the IMAX)

    I probably shouldn't watch the oscars if that weird gross dude is hosting.

    Just looked up the host... What the flying fuck is this garbage?.?..? Isn't the oscars the show that put billy crystal in blackface in the air? I guess I shouldn't be surprised in their current disgusting choice

    Edit oops that was the Emmys
  • Clever_girlClever_girl
    Life of Pi was amazing visually. No matter what you think about the story (which isn't that bad, especially if you've read the book first and are thus inoculated), it's a BEAUTIFUL movie. I hate 3-D, but that is one movie I wouldn't see any other way.

    Life of Pi and Cave of Forgotten Dreams are the only 3-D movies that are worth it to me (so far).

    When was the moment you became disillusioned with the Oscars? Mine was when Titanic beat out L.A. Confidential. And then the next year Bill Murray wasn't even nominated for Rushmore. Total bullshit.

    Do they have a best 3-D category yet?

    Best 3-D supporting actress in a musical/comedy.

    why did their blog die
    how will it end???
  • YoursTrulyYoursTruly
    sorry guys!!!!!!
    i made it almost to the end
    by the end though you're so enervated and exhausted that your eyes just stare at the spectacle and there are no thoughts or quips

    I was very mad about Daniel Day Lewis but other than that I was pretty much done by then. Jennifer Lawrence falling down was charming
  • YoursTrulyYoursTruly
    killer back chat MZ

    I didn't know who or what a Seth McFarlane was, so I looked him up.

    Seriously?!
    That's who they hired to do the Oxcars??????

    WTF with this William Shatner video interlude that happened?
    Really, wtf?

    it was the container inside of which they could still do all the tasteless shit but now it's ok because it was presented as tasteless shit!

    i watched a bit of the host, this McFarlane creature, and hated it so much.

    boring/trashy

    WHERE'S THE INTEGRITY, HOLLYWOOD??
  • MatthewMatthew
    He was terrible. Not funny at all. At least he didn’t do black face like Billy Crystal.
  • YoursTrulyYoursTruly
    He was legitimately bad but I expected to hate him because I loathe everything he has ever made

    so smug

    "Furthermore, there was a disturbing theme about violence against women being acceptable and funny," the lawmakers wrote. "From topical jabs about domestic violence to singing about 'boobs' during a film's rape scene, Seth MacFarlane crossed the line from humor to misogyny."
