-Thoughts?

  1. I'm still very much unconvinced of its potential for any major Oscar love (hence my exclusion of it from the poll on the right), but it's not a horrible poster...

  2. Decent poster. So far, I'm not convinced of it's best picture chances. I think Swank might be a contender, but perhaps the role is too Oscarbaity. Plus she already has like ten awards.

  3. well, she did loan her 8th Oscar to me, so I suppose she could use another one...

  4. yo guys, i think if she's good maybe she can have her nom, but please no more wins. Especially when so many people are still waiting for their first nomination let alone a win.

  5. I go with the theory that the best performance deserves the award, and if the same person ends up winning every year, so be it...it's about integrity

  6. I'm with Joey - I have no problem with someone winning multiple times if they deserve it. I think Hillary is an amazing actress. But I do have this feeling about this film that it could just be too Oscar-ish. That's not to detract from its own inherent qualities, but it does make me wonder . . .

  7. I still have nightmares of her southern accent from 'Million Dollar Baby' beating Imelda Staunton from 'Vera Drake.' That really wasn't even a contest.

  8. Best performance should win, period. If it's close, then perhaps we can use the "she already has 2" argument, but if she gives the best performance hands down, I have no problem with her winning a third. It lends credibility to the Academy if the best performance wins. Of course, determining the "best" performance is a trick subject to begin with right? So, let's just say *theoretically* the best performance should win every time.
