I remember The Reader more.

Movies no one really cares about anymore...

Crash (should have been Brokeback Mountain), Million Dollar Baby (should have been The Aviator), Slumdog Millioare (should have been The Dark Knight).

Agree with The Aviator. Brilliant and should have won.

Meh, I think Slumdog Millionaire was terrific. Way above all other nominees last year.

Slumdog might have been the best pick among nominees (I haven't seen The Reader and Milk yet, so I don't know), but far from best in 2008.

But I do remember it, if only because I spin the soundtrack every once in a while.

I remember the reader because that film was the POS that robbed TDK.

They add 5 BP nominees and still manage to pick the one movie that no one cares about.

I watched a couple of clips from The Reader on the internet.

The Aviator was not very good.

Sounds like you downloaded Kate Winslet's sex scenes.

twice, downloaded the film. Saw it the first time between jan and feb 2009 because it sounded interesting, 2nd time right before the asscars. It pales in comparison the Avatanic, seen that 4 times at the theater, soon to be 5.

It just comes down to: The huge entertaining film with lots of explosions and impressive effects should win. Not the small psychological (war) drama.

At least Slumdog was a 100m hit

bilge, it comes down to the superior film winning and avatanic is superior.

Had The Hurt Locker been released in November and handled better by the studio, it could have made well over $60 million.

Oh my God, STFU already.

I am so tired of this "The movie only made twelve million dollars, no one cares about it or will remember it" bullshit. Box office is interesting, it's important to an extent, and it's very fun to follow, but it's hardly a cosmic end-all-be-all statement on a film's importance. So change the record already, you "Avatanic"-sized nerds/Cameron-slobbering fanboys.
