but I think it's stupid that Day-Lewis always stays in character the entire time on and off the set during filming. why is it stupid? I don't know that I could really explain why. More than the fact that he stays in character throughout filming, I'm annoyed by the idea some people have that this pr...

It may mean that I don't fully appreciate great acting, but I think it's stupid that Day-Lewis always stays in character the entire time on and off the set during filming. He started doing that around the same time he quit appearing onstage. I don't really care for most of his performances since, a...

Related point: whose STUPID idea was it to present this category so early in the evening? It practically killed the suspense for the rest of the night. That's true. If they had wanted to give out a lead acting award that early, it should've been Actor, so we would still have had some suspense to ta...

I'm not crazy about this mediocrity of a song (sounds like a throwaway cut on a singer-songwriter's album circa 1971, and I hate how it goes upscale, which plays against the emotions of the lyrics), but loved that Jon Stewart brought the chick back. Let this be an everlasting slap in the face of th...

I don't think I'll be too upset at the end of the night. My favorite of the nominees is the frontrunner in Picture and Director. In Actor, Tommy Lee Jones is far and away my favorite, but I'm resigned to Daniel Day-Lewis winning. His performance is big and attention-grabbing, while Jones's is quiet...

Something that actually could take over the Carly thing in terms of media attention is a statement Garrett made in one of his post-elimination interviews. I'd bet most of the money in my bank account that the media doesn't pick up on it, but it definitely indicates something rotten in the state of ...

Also, I agree with dws that it's nice to see more contemporary films like American Gangster recognized. Too bad, though, that the '70's epic recognized here wasn't Zodiac. After watching American Gangster last night, I agree that Zodiac would've been a more deserving nominee in this category. Gangs...
