How about adding links to the torrents…?
and some of the documentaries), but whatever you choose to watch, they all are worth the time.
I got every movie nominated that is available in a decent quality (that means no Letters from Iwo Jima or Last King of Scotland
My favorites are Departed, Children of Men, Pan’s Labyrinth and Little Miss Sunshine. Favorite meaning I like them, I have no idea which movies are gonna win or if Scorcese finally gets his Oscar. I guess you really have to have a lotta inside knowledge to predict winners and not guess.
check that: http://www.oscartorrents.com/
nice huh ?
no it’s not my site… but check what we can do … amazing site. with all oscar movies
Wow, that’s awesome. Too bad I already have them all…
i think that using “search” is an easy ways finding the movies
Last King of Scotland, there is a DVDscr for it in a decent quality
http://www.oscartorrents.com/ is a funny site, don’t know if they should be goading the MPAA but they got balls. They say this is the Oscar year for “movies nobody saw”.
babel,departed,the queen deserved to be in oscars i don knw abt the movie letters from iwo jima but little miss sunshine, i seriously don understand wht was in tht movie it was a total nonsense….mostly boring not at all funny …if u ask me it deserves to be in the bottom 100 in the imdb section…
in my opinion best movie= departed
best director=Alejandro González Iñárritu
best actor=will smith or dicarpio ….both of thm performed well
best actress=Meryl Streep
you should have the nominations for Best Foreign Film, thats the best catigory IMO
Anyone else find The Departed dull? The entire story was laid out too nice and neat – start to finish without any mystery or room for interpretation.
Meryl Streep couldn’t act her way out of a nutsack.
Gask: yep, not as good as i expected…
little miss sunshine and volver both not as good as expected
i really liked babel, half nelson, blood diamond and pans labyrinth
If you find The Departed boring then I dont know what to say. Its easily one of the most tense movies I have ever seen.
Doh!
