The MPAA is going to have its hands full when CantorX new box office futures contracts launch.
When I was CEO of HSX/Cantor in 1996/98 - The cash inducements offered to rig markets from studio execs and
agents was intense.

Also, the MPAA should take a look at the 2005 best picture Oscar for "Crash" was, according to some, the result of information about trading on HSX being passed to studio insiders - from HSX/Cantor - who used that info. to lobby Academy members to vote for "Crash."

1. How true

the fact that a propaganda and B movie like Hurt Locker could win a Oscar, proves that oligarchy is in control.

2. I did not like the Hurt Locker at all...

I'm a movie buff and I was bored. I didn't even make it to the end.

It wasn't a horrible movie, but it was not Academy-worthy.

Glad I'm not the only one who wasn't overwhelmed in awe at HL.

4. I was rooting for a surprise upset from Inglorious Basterds.

As a student of film, Tarantino's movie just had it all. Hurt Locker was forgettable, imo.
