I really need to see Juno, There Will Be Blood, Michael Clayton, and No Country FOM
Having a 7 month old kills your movie going ways
I haven't seen most of the movies is that list, all in the special effects, and then one in the music score catergory and thats it. I guess I am just out of touch with the higher class moviegoer ;)
Hey I'm with you Jeff.. I haven't seen many of these films either. You and I will stick with our fun middle class entertainment moviegoers. :)
I've seen like none of those this year. Except the visual effects ones. Oh, and "3:10 to Yuma." Love westerns. I do want to see "Atonement." And "Juno" sometime but I can wait for Netflix for those.
Yeah I want to see No COUntry.., 3:10 to Yuma and There WIll Be Blood. The others....not so much. But then again I rarely agree with the Academy's choices.
