I still need to see The Departed and Little Miss Sunshine.
Yes you do...both are awesome.
Little Miss Sunshine was incredible.
It *looks* liek the kind of movie that will surprise you - but wow! it really surprised me. It really was great.
I think the cinematography and the cast were outstanding.
The whole ensemble cast was outstanding. It;s hard to point out 1 above the others, but Abigail Breslin, greg Kinnear, and Alan Arkin were above and beyond.
We just saw Pan's Labyrinth this past weekend. I thought it was very good, if a tad bit graphic.
We did go to see The Departed, but it was sold out and just never made it back to the movies again.
However, I must say that Helen Mirren looked exactly like QE2
Helen Mirren in The Queen was the best female acting performance I've seen since Ellen Burstyn in Requiem for a Dream.
I don't feel like I've seen enough movies this year to make any real educated choices... I need to see Babel, Dreamgirls, Blood Diamond and Iwo Jima.
Are we picking who SHOULD win or who WILL win?
Because Helen Mirren is a stone-cold lock.
Choices I am rooting for in bold. My picks in bold and underlined

Same here, although I have seen more of the nominees than I have in previous years.
Dream Girls is fantastic. I think you will really enjoy it.
Angel, you didn't get nominated?
Angel, you didn't get nominated?
Guess there is no best in background category.
Maybe Tony's rap video will win big at the MTV awards.
I think Babel will win for best picture and Brad Pitt did not even get a nomination.
The Departed or Little Miss Sunshine better win best picture.
I think Forest Whitaker and Djimoun Hounsou should win. I don't think we are getting enough movies made about Africa.
I still need to see Last King Of Scotland....Blood Diamond was a seriously good movie.
I'm glad Ryan Gosling got a nomination, that kid is good. I Hope he wins...
