kungfuwaynewho | WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK

What happened with the Oscar nominations? I mean seriously, what happened?

Bigelow and Affleck both get snubbed in Direction.
I mean the Director lineup just in general. Fuck David O'Russell.
Moonrise Kingdom doesn't get a Picture nomination.
No Looper in Screenplay.
No John Hawkes in Actor.
Where the actual fuck did Jacki Weaver come from? I didn't really think Ann Dowd would get in, but no Ann Dowd and Jacki Weaver instead?
This isn't a surprise, because everyone knew Alan Arkin would get in, but he would have been the third most interesting supporting performance in Argo, under Bryan Cranston and John Goodman.
I literally cannot with Editing.
No Hobbit for Costume? (But Mirror Mirror and Snow White and the Huntsman make it in.) Or for Sound Editing? Or Sound Mixing? (Lincoln for Mixing? Really? Really.) No nomination for "Song of the Lonely Mountain?"
And where are The Avengers' Sound nominations? Oh right, there are none.
I literally cannot with Documentary Feature, but I knew that when the first short-list was announced.
Hitchcock for Makeup over Lincoln? Anthony Hopkins literally looked like he was melting.
I fundamentally do not understand Life of Pi getting nominated for Production Design.

Bright spots:

Christoph Waltz.

I have seriously like been seething this whole morning. These are the worst. THE WORST.

In conclusion, GPOY:

Yeah, the complaints that The Hobbit is a small kids book just proves to me that these people haven't actually read TH in a long time. Yes, it's short, but huge things happen that Tolkien basically just skims by - like the rock giants fight, which was such a cool thing to see up on the screen. There was one review everyone was tearing apart because he whined about all the extra stuff PJ had added in, including Rivendell. He just wanted to stick elves in there! It was just a ploy! And like...duh? They go to Rivendell in the book? Why else do you think Bilbo goes back there in LOTR? So I've just been like "I cannot" over all of it.

I had never seen a movie in 3D before, but we did go for the third time to see it in 3D 48FPS - and it was pretty cool! It took about ten minutes to get used to it, but it did look really pretty. It was not as weird as everyone was saying - just very real, like it was right in front of you. And I don't get the reports that people were throwing up AT ALL. I always have a hard time with movies with a lot of action - I get headaches - and I was completely fine with this. So I would totally recommend it.

I recently read somewhere that some scenes were dragged out...like the dwarves singing at Bilbos place and the Bilbo/Gollum riddle scene...I had no words on how ignorant that person was.

I have to get into a bunch of other movies firstxD Quite a lot of the nominated movies are just coming out over here so I have a chance to see as many as I can and have a better idea who deserves the award and who doesn'tXD

How could anyone think the Riddles in the Dark scene was too long?!?!!

People who don't know a thing about the original story I guess. I'm not sure if it was a journalist, but if so I hope he got in trouble for that just because it's so lazy to not even read up a bit about the material the movie is based on.

Btw LOVE your header .)
