The Oscars 2013

[TKz]

Jennifer Lawrence has a nomination at 22.

Jesus.

Way to make the rest of us feel like we're wasting our lives, Katniss.

Quvenzhane Wallis is like 5 isn't she?

[Josh]

And years past already had your Anna Paquins and Haley Joel Osmentseseseses.

But, in general, I pay little attention to the Oscars anymore.

And to think, it was only four years ago that she was a supporting cast member on the Bill Engvall Show of all things.

[Herr Matzat]

I am surprised by the lack of Cloud Atlas. Not that i thought it was particular good, but it had "give uz ozkarsss pwueeas" written all over it.

[GoGo Yubari]

Critics were split on it and it bombed. That was pretty much that.

[Benjamin]

I'm surprised The Avengers didn't get any nominations for any of the technical awards, as well. That and Dark Knight Rises.

[NM!]

Just came back from seeing ZD30 and while I did enjoy it I can see why Bigelow wasn't nominated. Some questionable choices with character and seemingly rushed finish to a movie that had dragging scenes earlier in the movie. Affleck not getting a nomination is ridiculous.

Also, Paranorman better win Animated Feature. I loved Wreck-It-Ralph, but man was Paranorman wonderful.

[Walker]

I liked Wreck-It-Ralph and ParaNorman, but Frankenweenie was better. Best thing Tim Burton has done in ages.

[Jimmy]

Haven't seen Lincoln or The Sessions yet, but after seeing Les Mis, I'd definitely like to see Hathaway walk away with an oscar over Weaver and Amy Adams. Don't know where else it's going to win majorly, because I don't think it was best picture good and I can't see Jackman getting the nod for best actor.

Also, the new trailer in cinemas for Zero Dark Thirty has me pumped because it looked fucking incredible.

[TKz]

I want Hugh Jackman to win because then Wolverine would have an Oscar. And the Oscars are stupid, so who cares anyway.

Though it has informed me of the existence of Silver Linings Playbook, which looks wonderful.

[Jimmy]

It's lovely. I just can't wrap my head around how it's got so many nominations. But yeah, The Oscars are silly, I just like to get involved in all the hype.

It's fun the first few times, but you ended up more jaded than pro wrestling fans.

...starting to see a connection here...

Avengers did - best visual effects.

[TheSqauredCircleMessiah]

I just saw Zero Dark Thirty and I'm going to need a goof reason why Jessica Chastain shouldn't win Best Actress. As for Bigelow getting snubbed, it wouldn't surprise me if it's in some form of protest against her because of the supposed "pro-torture" stance the movie has been suggested as having.

Also, these really good movies need to stop giving Kyle Chandler bit parts and put him in a more prominent role. I looooove me some Coach Taylor.

[Tyrone]

Damn shame Leo, Jamie Foxx and Samuel L. Jackson didn't get nominated. Waltz did very good, but they were simply phenomenal in their respective roles.

[Herr Matzat]

Disney put up their nominated Animated Short "Paperman" for everyone to see, free! I think it´s great, check it out.
