Why so Serious?
Reactions after the list of this year’s Golden Globes nominees were announced: Why no love for the Dark Knight, with only a sole Supporting Actor Nomination for Heath Ledger. It deserves more dammit! Lets hope the Oscars shower more love for The Dark Knight. Good Picks: In Bruges finally gets some recognition and i’m excited by the acting noms generated by Darren Aronofsky’s The Wrestler. Also greatly anticipated is Danny Boyle’s highly rated Slumdog Millionaire and the Brad Pitt vehicle Benjamin Button. Dubious picks: Angelina Jolie for the Changeling? Mama Mia?! No love for Dark Knight. Obscure films that are now in my KIV movie watch list: All the best foreign language film picks, Last Chance Harvey, I’ve Loved You So Long.
As for the TV nominations, quite blah actually. If there is no nomination for Battlestar Galactica, there must be seriously something wrong. Plus, Mad Men is way overrated. I was bored by that show. Methinks House and Dexter are good picks, but where is Damages?
