The 2008 Xixax Awards

[last days of gerry the elephant]

i'm rushing to see a couple of films before i finish my list. talk about last minute.

I should have done that but, I only saw Atonement since submitting my list and that wouldn't have changed my opinion about anything really.

To all you This is England fans, i hope you voted for Joe Gilgun or Andre Shim for supporting actor.

Also, if you havn't voted yet remember Anjelica Houston in The Darjeeling Limited for Supporting Actress

[Alexandro]

from the darjeeling limited, i would say AMARA KARAN is a better best supporting actress option...she had some true chemistry with tom cruise there...

unless you put that shit in bold, i won't do it!!

Is The Lives of Others eligible? It won the Oscar last year but it's listed on IMDB as not receiving a theatrical run until Feb 2007.

I'm finding nominations quite interesting this year. What stands out, though, is that this a is an extremely macho year for film.

Oh and please don't overlook Spider-man 3 for Visual Effects. Waste of a film but the birth of the sandman sequence, is the most refined and beautiful 100% CGI (actor driven) sequences of 2007. Zodiac was well used used but not ground-breaking VFX - it also took place at night.

Another last minute campaigning....



For Best Supporting Male Performance

Alex Veadov - We Own the Night

Quiet, imposing, Vodka-loving.  Vote.

Is The Lives of Others eligible? It won the Oscar last year but it's listed on IMDB as not receiving a theatrical run until Feb 2007.

The Lives Of Others is also eligible, since the USA release date was in Feb. 2007.

Sheeee-iitttt, I'll put it in 120 point font, if it helps remind people how fucking good he was. But, you know, it's symbolically in bold.

Thanks.

I suggest everyone who doesnt vote will be BANNED from Xixax... that should motivate some of you!!!
