Oh yeah, cos Best Picture material means sooooooo much...
Those who say that the totalitarian state of the Soviet Union was not "real" Marxism also cannot admit that one simple feature of Marxism makes totalitarianism necessary:  the rejection of civil society. Since civil society is the sphere of private activity, its abolition and replacement by political society means that nothing private remains. That is already the essence of totalitarianism; and the moralistic practice of the trendy Left, which regards everything as political and sometimes reveals its hostility to free speech, does nothing to contradict this implication.

When those who hated capital and consumption (and Jews) in the 20th century murdered some hundred million people, and the poster children for the struggle against international capitalism and America are now fanatical Islamic terrorists, this puts recent enthusiasts in an awkward position. Most of them are too dense and shameless to appreciate it, and far too many are taken in by the moralistic and paternalistic rhetoric of the Left.

Quote from: themodernage02haha, did he ever consider that since it managed to rack up 7 nominations, that everyone did get to see it, they just didnt think it was Best Picture material?

We're talking about Weinstein here...

Falling in love is the greatest joy in life. Followed closely by sneaking into a gated community late at night and firing a gun into the air.

Yeah, it wasn't that one. It was one of Leo, Blanchett, and Law all sitting at a table talking. That picture is great though cinephile.

The Silver Bullet

He looks like a none-to-subtle high-gloss variation of Ray Liotta's Henry Hill. Which reminds me: is The Aviator going to be Scorsese's GoodFellas-styled exploration of the Hollywood Golden-era?

I sure hope so. The material lends itself to that sort of treatment.
