Posted - 03/11/2010 : 02:54:48 The Na'vi are accused of terrorism and are being targeted and killed. How do they represent the invaded Iraqi people? In Cameron's analogy the Na'vi can only represent Al-Queda, the Taliban or the Ba'athists. By the way I said 'muddled defense of Al-Queda'. Please don't misquote me.

Quaritch/Queda, Na'vi/Ba'athist. Geddit? Like I said, muddled. Cameron's playing around with these associations (irresponsibly IMO). Personally I don't like it when 80s hacks with shitloads of money are left free to wander the halls.

I don't see it.
Quaritch certainly seems to represent the neo-conservative/Cheneyite stand re: preemptive war and that quote you've included above does a good job of satirising the Bush government's alleged reason for attack (ie, the equating of the Al Qaida terrorists responsible for 9/11 with responsibility for the Iraq war). The Na'vi are supposed to represent the invaded Iraqi folk.
Where's the defence of Al Qaida? |

Posted - 03/10/2010 : 06:49:06 I shouldn't laugh but that was pretty funny. Here's hoping Colombian internet can handle your next try. Before you weigh in too hard I might as well tell you I didn't mind Avatar that much. Parts of it were enjoyable and from a technical point of view it was I guess a landmark movie. I don't think Avatar or Hurt Locker make great Best Picture winners. I would have preferred something like Agora. All three movies were pretty much the same subject matter; reason vs zealous barbarism.
I just don't think the voters were trying to deny Cameron his rightful award. Hurt Locker offers no easy answers and probably reflected the ambivalence the voters are feeling about what's going on in the world. At least both movies showed a lot of concern and that's a good thing

Posted - 03/09/2010 : 11:25:08 If that's what happened it wasn't a conspiracy. There are nearly 6000 academy members and no block voting so it's hard to argue it's political. It's political at an individual level but then so is everything. I'd like to think more people voted Hurt Locker because their mood is more in tune with actual world affairs. Cameron's comic strip simplifications are an 80s language. The voters have moved on. Is it really so bad for a movie to be judged on its substance? At one point in Avatar, Cameron makes a muddled defense of Al-Queda for chissakes! What really shocked me was how little any of the Lockerites had to say about their own movie. A wasted opportunity.
Agora arrived too late to be nominated. Pity.

I agree that the Hurt Locker, while a decent movie, didn't deserve all the awards it won. Overrated extremely at this point and whether you hate Cameron or big budget movies or not, you have to admit that it deserves at least the technical awards it received. I think this Oscars show served only to prove that the awards are more political than merit based. We hate Cameron so let's give everything to his ex. And put him right behind her. And show him attempting to politely smile everytime we stick a dagger in him.
Bleh.

Posted - 03/09/2010 : 10:37:50 I didn't know what to think about District 9 while watching it, but looking back it was pretty original. The guys life was just such shit and goes down hill from there. I would definitely watch a sequel if the same people were involved. |

Posted - 03/09/2010 : 09:14:35 I haven't seen many of the films that got nominations, but Waltz was terrific in Inglourious Basterds. Out of those that got nominated, I've only seen the aforementioned Basterds, In The Loop, District 9, Star Trek, Avatar and The Lovely Bones. Tucci was pretty good in Bones, but the less said about that film the better... |

Posted - 03/09/2010 : 08:15:49 i'm glad for Waltz, Bridges and The Cove |

Posted - 03/07/2010 : 22:56:58 Christoph Waltz winning best supporting actor was the best result as far as an award show goes. Lets hear it for learning multiple languages.
As for the big Hurt, congrats! The second to last scene with his son and the Jack In The Box pretty much sums it up. Suspense is eternity.

Just did some of the ones i have an opinion on. Clearly, I'm an Inglourious Basterds fan. A Serious Man was my second favorite of the year. Here are some close calls for me Directing - Tarantino vs. Bigelow Original Screenplay - Inglourious Basterds vs. A Serious Man

I saw this interview with some of the nominated directors and the question was asked if there was a scene in their film that they felt had to be cut and why? Cameron Tarantino Lee Daniels and Jason Reitman all had at least one but not Kathryn Bigelow. Without actually saying it, it was pretty much like "my movie is perfect" and I agree. |
