Jailfin The rest I dont know |

| Slumdog Millionaire will likely clean up with the most awards. Rourke is almost a shoe-in to win. Ledger is all but guaranteed. The rest I don't know. |
pded MILK will win |
2-20-2009 8:38 PM |
MILK will win.
Best movie ever.
Sean Penn will win too.
Best actor ever.
I'm sorry, do other people beside homosexuals and Hugo Chavez vote?
I heard "DrumLine" is on TBS on Sunday night. Since hanging myself is no longer viable due to the "crisis" Pres. Obama keeps referring too. I maybe stomping in no time.
Bang Bang Bang Skeet Skeet Skeet! |
Joaquin Phoenix Eastwood |
2-21-2009 09:08 AM |
| Eastwood so deserved to get nominated for best actor for Gran Torino. He carried that movie, and did a really good job with it too. He could've also easily got a nod for Best Director for it, or even Changeling. There were a lot of good movies this year, so a lot of worthy ones are going to/got get snubbed. |
moon The only movie I saw |
2-21-2009 11:29 AM |
| The only movie I saw out of all the nominations is the "Dark Knight". I am pulling for Heath to win best supporting actor( I think he is going to get it), Kate Winslet for best actress, I just think she is amazing and either Mickey Rourke or Sean Penn for best actor. They are always good, IMO. |

Firefly Heath Ledger for the Dark Knight |
2-22-2009 08:09 AM |
Can't really say I've seen all the movies out for nomination this year
but my vote goes Heath Ledger for the Dark Knight in the Batman movie.
