3. Wilkinson was great as Franklin
If they ever do a movie about Franklin, he'd be the perfect choice.

She just keeps getting better! Paquin does a nice job on Tue Blood too but I don't care for the show as much as I like SVU.

that award would have most likely have gone to his more deserving co-star Aaron Eckhart.

28. zero credibility
Any television award that doesn't even nominate Michael Emerson for his eerie portrayal of Benjamin Linus on "Lost" has zero credibility.

61. I disagree. I thought that some of the music for Slumdog Millionaire was great
but some didn't fit quite right, and distracted. Some was excellent (the use of synthesizers/filtration and decimation on orchestral instruments was extremely good) but the WALL•E and Burn After Reading scores were -really good-.

Peter should have won. I hope the Oscars will straighten that out, but "The Wrestler" has the hype machine in overdrive right now.

A full one or two of them. Which means 10-20 million people are offended by the language and offensive hand gesture.

as you could probably tell from my sig line. I'm still trying to figure out whether The Wrestler or Gran Torino was the best movie of the year, but I'm leaning towards The Wrestler.

The Dark Knight had a better screenplay, as did Changeling (Go Joe!), and Milk, all of which were better dramas...and I really liked Slumdog Millionaire.

Most of the reviews I've seen about Changeling say it's super manipulative. Clint's got a better chance w/Gran Torino for Oscar.

66. Changeling is about those who are too manipulative, so that makes sense.
Slumdog Millionaire and the other films I mentioned are all very good. I'll have to see Gran Torino someday although I'm just not into the subject.
