[re=3201106]Re: DoutzenKroes
role models and forgetting sarah marshall were nominees for best comedy? they weren't even funny!
Best Picture for TV? Is that new? WTF?
Gran Torino just slipped in I see!
Love the poster!
As good as health ledger was in the Dark Knight, he will not win that oscar.
Re: SweetPat – lmao i agree.
That Ugly Philipina slut…. I don't think so !
CHANGE THE POST PUTO!
This aint no award show if i'm not nominated…. The end.
WTF is this??!!!!
Robert Downey, Jr. - Tropic Thunder best supporting actor- is that a JOKE!!!!!!!!!!
Mr MD…..Hahahahaha….I agree, my hair is fucking stunning. Pantene is the shit.
Geez………I am not this person………….wtf
Why the eff is Pineapple Express not nominated for best comedy? That is definitely the funniest movie of the year!!!!!
Re: SweetPat – ur a dumb fucktard!
have u even seen "changling"?
its one of the best drama movies ever! go stich ur had up ur fat asssss moron!
aaahahahah!
Re: Hot Monkey Love HATES GORILLAS!! –
my thoughts exactly
WANTED SUCKED!!!!!!!!!
decent list
I'm rooting for "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" and "The Reader"!
Kate Winslet is going to kick ass in The Reader. I just got done reading that book and not only is it my favorite book, I'm sure it will be my favorite movie come Christmas. Kate can definitely pull off that character and she deserves an Oscar! Finally! Always a nominee, never won. This is Kate's year!
i hope changeling will be the best picture and angelina gets the best actress award.
she did amazing in the movie!
and walle is the best animated film i have ever seen in my life
i loved angelina in changeling! and i really wanna see the curious case of benjamin button!
Re: sashahaha – WHY DON'T YOU GO LICK JOLIES'S CUNT!
um excuse me, I think Revolutionary Road is missing from this list?
Pineapple Express should be under comedy.
Oh hell yeah!!! Everyone should go see Let The Right One In beecause it is freaking awesome and look its up there for an Oscar! AHH!
Re: sashahaha – MADGORILLA IS THAT YOU!!!!!
HELL YES! MILEY CYRUS!
woho!
and give Kate Winslet the oscar she DESERVES! She's been robbed so many times.
wow
robert downey jr best supporting actore tropic thunder?!
random!
haha mariah carey didnt get the nomination she wouldve wanted for best original song tho.
And over jack white and alicia keys horrible song?? SHIT.
Ugh, don't give Angelina another oscar. * P : U : K : E *
team aniston. oooh,yeah.
ya, don't give Brad one either. fugly asshole.
Re: sashahaha – I COULD CARE LESS OF WHAT YOU THINK SHIT FACE!!!!
ANGELINA HOLIE IS A FUCKING SCUM BAG WHORE AND SHE DESERVES TO BE SHIT ON HER ANOREXIC FACE!!!!!
SO IF YOU WANT TO KISS HER FLAT ASS IT'S YOUR OWN FUCKING PROBLEM!!!!!!
fresh
miley was nominated !
Re: LettyB Can Be Imitated Not Duplicated – I thought he was funny as shit!
Re: LaDiva is watching you… – I disagree, looking at the other people Heath is up again he has a damn good chance of winning it. His performance in The Dark Knight was astounding, I'd be very surprised if he didn't get the Oscar for it.
Re: Hot Monkey Love HATES GORILLAS!! – "I THINK: SOMEBODY FELT EXCLUDED AND WANTED ATTENTION SINCE THEY NEVER GOT ANY FROM US! AND IT'S SOMEONE WHO HASN'T POSTED RECENTLY…JUST WATCHED!"
Well. That's seriously very egomaniacial of you, considering this is….what…..perhaps the 2nd time I have ever replied to you? I would never want to be associated with ANY of your "group", so I certainly couldn't be feeling excluded. And you're right, I didn't post for a few days, but you think I just lurked around reading what you retards have to say? Get over yourself.
CATE BLACHETT SHOULD WIN!
go dakota fanning!!
Re: DaisyBaby – against*
Re: SWEETPIECE VP OP of D.I.S.S. – HE WAS BUT IT'S NOT OSCAR WORTHY!!!!
wow nothing for revolutionary road. leo dicaprio deserves everything!!!
Wall e looks like short circuit
Where the fuck is Pineapple Express in best comedy movie!?!?!?!
Re: Lisa04 – I just said the same thing! hahaha
Re: LettyB Can Be Imitated Not Duplicated – I think it is a joke! The character was always needed peer recognition.
Just a thought.
But your are correct, Oscar worthy, perhaps not.
HEATH HEATH HEATHHHHHH!
BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR! Heath ftmfw!
Re: DaisyBaby – IF (and its a big if) he wins, it will be a sympathy vote. He did a phenomenal job as the joker. But had he had been alive, I doubt he would have been nominated, at least in regards to this movie.
MILEY!:D
WHY WON'T THEY SHOW "MILK" IN MY NAZI-ESQUE ULTRA CONSERVATIVE TOWN? FUCK THAT!!
.
.
I'M GONNA GO EAT EVERTHING IN MY FRIDGE!!!!! THAT'LL SHOW THEM!!!
does it piss anyone else off that miley cyrus could be nominated for an oscar?
You mean Jennifer Aniston wasn't nominated for "Marley & Me"? LOL!
Hope Heath wins something!!!
HERE'S TO THE DARK KNIGHT!!!
by the time the oscars roll around Brad and Ange will be gone -he is just a mediocre actor in a v tough category and her perf is way too one dimensional. Brolin may take it from Heath and it will be sean and mickey in a toss up for actor - though i did love Richard Jenkins in The Visitor - he was heartbreakingly good…
One of my new year's resolution is to watch all the nominated movies before the grandiose event. These are such great films
Re: Em!ly *R* – i know is this what the OSCARS have come to…nominating little teeny boppers for an award that people with true talent dream of winning
This year we have to say, I can say that this year will be very interesting.I really Hope that Heath ledger will win the best supporting actor, he already won the aussie,but he has great talent. Go Dark Knight! But I do hope MILK picks up some awards to. I am excited to see who wins!
Re: LettyB Can Be Imitated Not Duplicated – ewwwwww
im a homo
clits are groos
just like u r!
aahaha!
Re: LettyB Can Be Imitated Not Duplicated – what the fuck is "madgorilla"?
ur dumb
Re: SweetPat – i dont have a problem and i didnt ask u if u cared what i think.
i just think ur comments r annoying and stupid.
go die
aahahahaha!
that's great…makes me really happy….except for the fact that both milk and changeling have yet to be released in the town that i live it. stupid middle america.
Re: SweetPat – Where you will be taking her order. You must be a looser like Jennifer Ass- sit- ton. Move on the queen Angelina is 3 babies in. Jen will NEVER HAVE a clue and neither do you.
blah blah blah nobody watches that shit anyways.
Why do they have to keep nominating Cate Blanchett? Every single year she has to be nominated. Yes, she's a fantastic actress, but why couldn't they have nominated Sally Hawkins for "Happy-Go-Lucky"? Kate Winslet should have been nominated for Revolutionary Road and why leave out Keira Knightly for Duchess, when she was fantastic in the role? But no, Cate has to be on the ballot without fail. This is getting really old!
Re: Moniker –
And they left out Ralph Fiennes for one of the best performances of his career in the Duchess. These awards are B.S.!
Perez Hates Me ^^
HAHAHA PEREZ MILEY WAS NOMINATED!!! AND YEAH GUYS STOP HATING NOT ONLY OLD PEOPLE ARE NOMINATED!!
GO MILEY!!!
Gee all these people know eachother it's like only the popular are nominated… it
s total bullshit. Half the movies suck - changeling, thropic thunder, forgetting sara marshall, madagascar,burn after reading, coco chanel… wtf??!!!
EW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BOLT AND MILEY CYRUS!!!!!! EW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LACK OF TALENT=MAJOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PRAY TO GOD THAT THEY DON'T WIN!!!!!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DON'T WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: LaDiva is watching you… – I disagree again. This movie is all over the place in the awards, and it's mainly because of his performance! If he were still alive I'm sure he would still get the nod, you don't get ignored at the award ceremonies after a performance such as his. Not a big if, he has a very good chance of getting this. You will see.
Re: sashahaha – YOU ARE ANNOYING AND STUPID UGLY BITCH!!! VERY BRAVE TO ANSWER ME AFTER I'M GONE SHIT FACE!!! I DON'T FUCKING CARE ABOUT CELEBRITIES I HAVE A LIFE ON MY OWN AND DON¡T HAVE TO BE KISSING CELEBRITY ASS LIKE YOU! GET A LIFE LOSER!!!!!Re: The Real Mrs S. Carter – AND WHO THAT HELL YOU ARE ASS SUCKER?!?!?!?!? FIRST LEARN SOME ENGLISH AND THEN TALK TO ME OK?????
