Talk about lowered standards

Have you seen Virgin Suicides, BTW? Same stuffed animals, arranged differently.

But this is sad. If movies like Lost have great shot at Oscar then the whole scale is shifted down in favor of syrupy American-style feel-gooders.

Perhaps the only reason the Foreign Language movies are judges separately is the fact that in an all-out competition the films like Lost in Translation would never have any chance.

The only good thing I could say about that movie is that it was inoffensive. That is more than I could say about many others, for sure, but that hardly justifies all the hoopla around it.

How would you like to be a Mongolian, watching the nominations for the Mongolian Academy, with all movies presented being the Mongolian movies about sheep herding?

If you lock yourself in, you are bound to degrade.
