Scott Pilgrim finally gets some lovin’!
the future of saturday after noon movies is secure for now but what about ‘the fighter’? boxing movies always get nominted in this corner, yet I find them routine. the best edit is no edit. they should keep an Oscar for best editing, not give one away!
YEAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!! Long Live Scott Pilgrim!!! Hopefully he’ll get nominated for an Oscar!
Just went and saw the Black Swan. It was very depressing and I wanted to reach out and slap that look off of her face. (I know that was how she was supposed to look and would say the acting was good) but don’t enjoy watching 2 hours of an insane person.
