Thanks for that mate... now I know what to look for as I haven't seen most of it yet... watched 'Flight' with Denzel Washington and loved it... great movie worth seeing. Need to see the rest to say something so I'll see You a bit later:)

Really?

The only movie I have seen there is Brave?

Was on a tight budget last year so I only went to see maybe 4 movies last year.

I wish there was a way to watch current movies without having to shell out all that cash for a ticket and then of course there is the Popcorn and Soda. Eventually they find their way to DVD or Netflix but until then.....I wait. I know there are always hack rips and cams available but life has not yet gone that far down hill for me so......I wait.

For once RAV3R is correct, "Django Unchained" is very good - quality soundtrack also.

Haven't seen "Les Miserables" as of yet but, we do have high expectations - not always a good thing!

By that list there looks like about 10 movies that have a chance of winning anything!!

The oscars suck big time anyway.

George C. Scott is my hero as he told the Academy to donate his Oscar to the Patton Museum (which the ratbags never done) because he genuinely thought they were not worth winning Very Happy
