    So I know this is kind of a week late, but whatever
    So, the Oscars, best picture nominees:
    -Slumdog Millionaire (winner)
    -Curious Case of Benjamin Button
    -The Reader
    -Frost/Nixon
    -Milk

    So out of all of them I've only seen slumdog so far. It was alright, dunno if it deserved 50 awards like it got but it wasn't horrible.
    I want to see Milk and Frost/Nixon, those look interesting. As far as the reader, that just looks kinda creepy lol. And Benjamin I could do without, but I'll probably see it at some point in time.

    Comments?

    Well, out of those I've only seen slumdog and benjamin (I just had to watch it lol). Out of the two I think slumdog was a much better movie. I didn't like benjamin at all.

    I thought Slumdog was the best movie this year...it just is a very good movie. Except, I've never seen Milk, so I can't really say it's better than that though.

    Well, the only two movies out of those I have seen are the first two, Slumdog Millionaire and Benjamin Button, and I would say that Slumdog Millionaire is better.

    Yeah, I wasn't a fan of Benjamin Button. Although, I wasn't surprised it did so well.

    Anyone else thing Brad Pitt should have won Best Actor instead of Sean Penn?
