I told everyone Blunt would make it and Breslin wouldn't.
I did I did I did!!!
Dakota Fanning was behind this. She-devil!
Wasn't Breslin placed in lead? Wasn't she? I'm so confused... but whatever, if it means Emily Blunt gets nominated instead, that's fine by me.
Yeah, I'd much prefer Blunt than Breslan (even though Breslen was indeed placed in lead).
That movie had three leads? Breslan, Collette and Kinnear. I woulda thought Collette would be supporting. Oh well.
I woulda thought Collete as supporting too, but well whatever. I LOVED Breslin, but to see Blunt there was like an orgasm! [Yes, I have no life! lol]
yea, i'm bummed for Breslin and hope she recoveres.
A.O. Scott just called Clint Eastwood the greatest living director of all time.
All I have to say to that is ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh and that I agree with your many "fucks" in reference to that horrible director. I'm tired of the cult!
And yay for Blunt. :)
"greatest living director of all time" LOLOLOLOL "living" then "of all time"?
