According to the Academy...

After viewing the Academy Awards last night, I found myself mulling around some questions.
1) Is "knowing" an actor/actress (i.e. having more exposure the person and more experience with his/her work) an important part of judging a person's acting? How important/unimportant?
2) Is the public's judgment of quality filmmaking better or worse (or just different) than the judgment of those in the business (in other words, the Academy)?

What Movie Do You Wish To Destroy????

Everybody's seen something that made them wish that they could get that hour and a half back. But if you could wipe a movie from existence, what could it be? What film do you hate that much?

Not My Kind of Movie!

Bonjour!

After discussing my feelings about the movie Michael Clayton, I am wondering what types of movies does everyone NOT like. For example, I can see the movie Michael Clayton being one that people enjoy with really good acting, but I just didn't like it. I was bored. In short, law suspense movies are not my kind of movie.
