NO LOVE FOR CHRISTOPHER NOLAN AS BEST DIRECTOR!

Damn, son. The Academy effed that ess up real good this year. But something tells me that Nolan is gonna come back like a mofo with The Dark Knight Rises. That’ll show ’em, Chris.

That’ll show ’em all…

Good voting, folks!

RESULTS:
– No love for Chris Nolan – Best Director: 18 votes
– No love for Andrew Garfield – Best Supporting Actor: 7 votes
– No love for Ryan Gosling – Best Actor: 4 votes (would have been my vote by a long shot)

Can’t just pick one, both are deserving” (I hear ya’, man), 1 vote for “No love for Shutter Island‘s cinematography” (shibby dibby), 1 vote for “No love for LET ME IN – EVERYTHING!!!!” (looks like it’s been a rough award season for ya’, Sebastian), and 1 vote for “Julianne Moore best actress” (word, she really was good).

      Haha. Rewatch the scene where they get pulled over by the cop for speeding. My explaining it wouldn’t do the quote justice.

    I went for Gosling, easily. Nolan’s directorial style recently got pwned by Jim Emerson http://blogs.suntimes.com/scanners/2011/01/locating_the_difference_betwee.html

    Maybe INCEPTION will win Best Picture as a consolation. I really am hoping that is the case…

    My life is cruel, bleak, and empty without proper LET ME IN love!

    Yay, I’m happy a lot of people agree w/ me. Nolan and Garfield being missing from the Oscar noms are my biggest gripe about the whole thing. I tweeted last night that if I had my way, I’d rather be at the Baftas than at the Oscars.

      Yeah, I won’t argue that. Strange things are afoot in the Academy.

    Nolan? Sure. Garfield? Not so much…

      Lol. Well, at least someone’s agreeing with the Academy.

Drop that knowledge!
