Such a great idea for a movie, put me to sleep though.

The STE 02-26-2005 08:37 PM

it's one of two Nick Cage movies I like, besides Adaptation

4. Million Dollar Baby
5. Shaun of the Dead
6. Sideways
7. Spiderman 2
8. Kill Bill vol. 2
9. The Bourne Supremacy
10. Spartan

1.Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind/Million Dollar Baby(split decision for me)
2.The Aviator
3.Shaun of the Dead
4.Kill Bill
5.Bourne Supremacy/Spiderman(another split)

haven't seen Sideways or The Machinist, I'm going tomorrow morning to see Sideways. Is it really as funny as all the reviews say?

The STE 02-26-2005 08:56 PM

not having read the reviews, I can't say. It is really funny, though.

well actually make it 16 he should've won best picture and director for a few of 'em too. I watch the oscars and enjoy 'em sometimes but it pisses me off when people like Scorses get fucked over ecspecially for Taxi Driver and Raging Bull that's complete bullshit.

No, Scorsese wouldn't have gotten Best Picture for any of them. The producer gets the Best Picture award, and Scorsese's never Producer for his movies (executive producer doesn't count)

it's just like when a team wins the Super Bowl and they give the owner the trophy like he actually deserves it.

By the way, what did you think about Million Dollar Baby? you're the only person I know that's seen it.

The STE 02-26-2005 09:30 PM

2nd best boxing scenes ever. Nothing could live up to the ones in Raging Bull, but these were damn good. Swank completely negated The Core, Eastwood continues his Awesome streak (which has been going for a good 40 years, not counting Paint Your Wagon), as does Morgan Freeman. It's damn close between this and Aviator, but the direction in Aviator edges it out.
