Best Picture? You Vote.

February 21st, 2008

With the nasty weather and a lingering sickness,  I had a chance to catch up on all the Best Picture Academy Award nominated pictures: Atonement, Juno, Micheal Clayton, No Country For Old Men, There Will Be Blood

So my thoughts and recommendations:

Atonement - could have been a good movie, but I thought it was a little too arty - it didn’t work in movie adaptation (wait for Netflix)

Juno - cute, funny, light hearted, a movie that you’ll need to see several times to get all of the jokes, and the sound track was great (pay full price and buy DVD)

Micheal Clayton - good movie, thriller, well acted (pay full price, rent DVD)

No Country For Old Men - intense, (matinee to pay full price) - I was a little anxious watching a psychopathic killer brutally murdering people, if you can get over that, it was a well done movie.

There Will Be Blood - way too long of a movie that didn’t have much to say. (stay home)

So what do you think?  Post your prediction by Sunday, Feb. 28th, 5 PM PST to comments below, or send them directly to us (hint: if you include your mailing address, you get a free sticker). 

This is not a scientific poll and you will not win a prize, but you can tell your friends that you have psychic powers.  (And, hey.  If you are psychic, we’ll be sure to feature you in our blog!)
