Anyone going to see this? The trailer looks pretty damn good and the plot looks creative. Bryan Cranston is also in this bitch as well which makes it more badass

Looks pretty good and as much as I ain't a huge fan of Affleck as an actor he's directed some good films, you're right about Cranston. Thanks for the heads up son

Agreed, the town and gone baby gone were both great films. I thought he was a spud for a long while but he's changed my mine

haven't seen Argo yet, but planning on doing so this week. for me ..

Gone Baby Gone - 10/10

The Town - 9/10

I think that Gone Baby Gone should have received several Oscar nominations and the only reason it didn't was simply because it was Affleck's first film to direct and he was coming off of years of doing horrible chick flick movies so the Academy likely held that against him. If that film had been directed by say a Clint Eastwood, Martin Scorsese, etc. ... then it would have definitely received multiple nominations for sure. its probably the most mature dilemma I have ever seen approached in film.

Gone Baby Gone only received one Oscar nomination for best supporting actress, but it should have also received nominations for ...

Best Picture

Best Directing - Ben Affleck

Best Lead Actor - Casey Affleck

Best Supporting Actor - Ed Harris (should have won, best performance of his career)

Best Supporting Actress - Amy Ryan

Best Screenplay

Best Original Score

Paul Dano as Eli Sunday should have won Best Supporting Actor.

I forgot about Javier Bardem. Never mind.

Can anybody PM me to tell me how the last 15 minutes ended? I got sick and had to leave the theater to throw up my dinner in the bathroom. Last thing I saw was the Revolutionary Guard calling the studio phone number, John Goodman picking up and telling him Ben Affleck was out of the country on business.

I've been waiting for Ben Affleck to step away from shit near Boston to see if he could do something differently while directing. The good reviews this is getting make it seem like he's done well. I look forward to seeing it.
