Joey here....the Spirit Awards are upon us and wanted to see what people thought about them....are they the younger, sexier sibling to Oscar or just a kiss of death for the hip indie film of any given year?
I think this is going to be a night for two films...Juno and I'm Not There
what do you guys think?
They're not really anything. They're just the Independent Spirit Awards. They really have no influence on the Oscars whatsoever--especially considering that most films nominated at the Spirit Awards weren't even nominated at the Oscars. And even if they were, the Spirit Awards have *very* different taste from AMPAS (ex: The Savages gets nominations everywhere but for Linney, at the Oscars Linney and the Screenplay are it). Still, I love the Spirit Awards and I wish they weren't on so damn late.
