ᾦɐļᵲʊʂ:
How is it that Aronofsky, Lynch and Scorsese get robbed all in the same year and same category?
I mean, jesus, I thought the Oscars were disagreeable.
modage:
those werent Scorsese's or Lynch's best films by a long shot and this was Cuaron's best film. honestly I had expected more wins from The Fountain but like Brick i guess there just wasn't quite enough love out there.
Gamblour.:
Yeah, how Aronofsky didn't win for this doesn't make any sense. Cuaron was the Paul Greengrass of this category.
picolas:
i keep having the intense urge to post this whenever it comes up and i keep holding back but this is the xixaxies and Gamblour keeps saying it so:
it makes PERFECT SENSE that Aronofsky and The Fountain have not won any major awards (except for best score in some places),
because The Fountain is a bad movie.
