Captain Phillips is the best of the Best Picture lineup, in my opinion, followed by 12 Years a Slave and Nebraska.  Not a fan of American Hustle and Gravity.  The rest are solid, though.

It is a shame they did not nominate Robert Redford (All Is Lost) for Best Actor or Inside Llewyn Davis for Best Picture.

Did Spring Breakers miss some cutoff date or something? What gives?

I think Franco is getting a lifetime achievement award for that one and This is the End.

I haven't seen This Is The End. Does it have the blonde chick from Pretty Little Liars, too?

I don't know "Pretty Little Liars" but "This is the End" was pretty funny.

Bad Grandpa is my new favorite movie of 2013. I have a cold, and that movie nearly killed me by making be laugh my way into coughing fits I couldn't stop.

I hated the moral lesson of "American Hustle".  The only person in that movie that I identified with was the one who "lost."

Also, it just shows you how fickle perspective is because if any of those involved were not considered "cool" then "American Hustle" could be (and should be) relentlessly made fun of for all of the over-acting.  I mean there's some hall of fame ham in that movie.  How many times was Christian Bale shown with that "I'm stoic but I'm sweating and have no idea what's going on" look on his face?  50? 100?

And Jennifer Lawerence...I don't think you're SHOUTY and DRAMATIC enough!   Once it got to "Delilah" I was like: "That's it.  This is a 2-hour movie trailer."

The kid in it was eight. Wouldn't want to accidentally provide him with an inappropriate role model.  ;D

We've shown him a few carefully screened jackass clips.  True love.

watching that doc as we speak.  not very good.  the subject is good, but not the doc.  i prefer docs on trekkies and star ward nerds.  bronies are fake mental problems.

I think the Best Actress award is much more interesting than the Best Actor award this year.  I would probably give it to Cate Blanchett for Blue Jasmine over Sandra Bullock for Gravity. 

The Lego movie was pretty good.  You should see it if you haven't had a chance.
