Phat Girlz, Little Man, Hostel and Jackass 2 to compete for Hollywood's highest honour!

God, looking over this list from Movie City News of all the films eligible for this year's Academy Awards is scary. There really is such a small pool of contenders when you get rid of all the superflous junk that haven't a hope in Hell (Basic Instict 2, anyone?) I could've sworn there were more movies released in 2006 (the number on the list is 307). It's interesting to wonder why Australian films Look Both Ways and Opal Dream are eligible, yet Candy and Little Fish aren't. I'd never even heard of some of these films? Dog Lover's Symphony? Flannel Pajamas?? Once in a Lifetime: The Extraordinary Story of the New York Cosmos??? On a side note, who reckons the makers of those films just named them crazy things like that to stick out a bit? It's amazing that films like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning, The Santa Clause 3 and The Grudge 2 are on there. Hmm. Oh well. The list is below with brief plot description (as close as I can tell the plot is. Some of these I'm only going by what IMDb tells me). And I am not making any of these up.

Like, whoa. What possessed you list all these?

Anyway, my blog is back up and running again. I just have to rebuild my sidebar (sigh). I've gone and fixed all the posts that are still visible, and I'll just fix the others individually if and when I decide to link to them. Yes, I have some OCD.

In other news, I've rewatched Little Miss Sunshine on DVD and I'm convinced that it actually really is a really good movie. I heart all the actors so much. Best ensemble of the year.

I figured you were just taking a break from your blog. Glad it's back. I'm scared to transfer over to the new blogger. Major scared.

(I don't know what possessed me)

adam k. said...

Don't do it!

Well, you should switch to the new blogger I guess, cause it's kind of better, but DON'T switch over to the new template. I repeat: do not upgrade your template.

Well, you could, I guess, since they'll let you change back anyway (as I discovered). But the new templates are weird. They change everything, and they're not as user-friendly as they claim to be. I hated mine. If you place any stock in how your text and images align, and how your blog and sidebar look and work generally, a new template will just annoy you. You've been warned.

THANK YOU!!!

I will proceed with caution.
