Oh I'm sorry, Did I Break Your Conversation........Well Allow Me A Movie Thread by S&T

50/50 makes me wish Seth Rogen took on more roles like that. I don't think he's an amazing actor but I think he'd be better off taking some more serious roles as a supporting actor, he was very solid in 50/50.

Yeah he was, I thought he did a good job in that supporting role like you said
 
50/50 was pretty good. I loved the comedy bits in such a sad drama film.

Rush was real good too. Surprised how much I liked that movie.

Booooo booooo, booo this thread! BOOOOOOO
 
I honestly wasn't expecting much from Rush, I think i only gave it a shot cuz of Hemsworth.

But the film was great, and moved along quickly and nicely. 
 
I was intrigued bc I peripherally watch F1 and Ron Howard.

Expectations were raised after Bill Simmons hyped it but it met expectations
 
I just watched The Worlds End.
Didn't know much of anything about it before turnign it on, almost turned it off. Glad I didn't, pretty funny movie
 
Saw Inside Llewyn Davis and Nebraska. Both were solid films, but nothing special, IMO. Really liked the music in ILD and Oscar Isaac was very good (didn't know he was in a band). Nebraska was surprisingly not as depressing as Payne's previous films, but could be if you're up there in age.
 
Revisited The Sting earlier tonight for the second time. Redford and Newman, great movie. For 1973, it had a much older feel to it than that. Well deserved of its Best Picture win that year.
 
 
yall ever catch The Killing on AMC?
Currently on season 2.

IMO, this season has better twists and turns than season 1. Although season 1 develops the story and background to it all so I didn't expect crazy twists.

I really like this show. I'm glad Netflix picked up the final season to end the series.
 
After seeing Wolf of Wall Street I wanted Leo to win.

But after watching 12 years a slave I want anything that movie is associated with to win.
 
Ugh, can't believe Blue is the Warmest Color and The Past didn't get a nom for best foreign film. Spike Jonze should have gotten the nod over Alexander Payne for the directing category. Also surprised that Hans didn't get nominated for his score on 12 Years a Slave.

As far as the rest of the awards:
Best Film: 12 Years a Slave
Director: Steve McQueen

Actor (Leading Role): Matthew McConaughey
Actor (Supporting Role): Jared Leto

Actress (Leading Role): Cate Blanchett

Screenplay (Adapted): John Ridley (12 Years a Slave)

Documentary: The Act of Killing
Animated Film: The Wind Rises

Cinematography: Gravity
Visual Effects: Gravity
 
:wow: at the Tom Hanks snub today. So much for his comeback year... going from potential double nominee to nothing at all. I was not expecting this ether because Hanks is pretty beloved by the Academy.

Christian Bale did good work on Hustle but there's no way he deserved a nomination over Hanks, Captain Philips was some of his best work ever.
