<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Does gross really matter? I do agree that it's a weak year, though. All the good movies were docus (only one was nominated) and non-Oscar films (like Shaun of the Dead)</div>

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>Have you seen any of them? I'd like to see Million Dollar Baby, Ray and Sideways. Million Dollar Baby, however, isn't playing anywhere near me.</div>

[Flip]

<div style='font: 10pt Tahoma; text-align: left; '>I have not, and that is the point. When they came out i was never excited about them like, say, LoTR, Chicago, A Beautiful Mine, Gladiator, American Beauty, and Titanic.</div>

[Flip]

<div style='font: 10pt Tahoma; text-align: left; '>Of course,my tastes dont exactly mean they suck. I'm sure they are all good movies, so i should say the oscarsthis year dont ineterst me since none of themovies did.</div>

[Kupek]

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>No thanks. I'd rather watch it in a theatre or on DVD.</div>

[SineSwiper]

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>See, the thing is that it was a great year for action movies, but of course, the Oscars don't pay attention to that. You'd think they would create a category for "Best Action Movie" or something. The best they have to hope for is SFX.</div>

[SineSwiper]

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>All of those except Chicago and Titanic were worthy of an Oscar. Chicago was mostly because I think musicals should stay at Broadway, and Titanic was won during another bad movie year.</div>

[Zeus]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Bittorrent can very easily be DVD....</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "arial narrow"; text-align: left; padding: 0% 5% 0% 5%; '>L.A. Confidential should have taken '97.</div>

[Kupek]

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>I'd rather not spend the entire time thinking "This is ALMOST as good as a DVD...". In general, if I think that I will appreciate a movie, I'd rather pay for it.</div>

[Kupek]

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>Which ones? None come to mind.</div>

[Zeus]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I meant download DVD-rips of iffy films, the ones you don't really want to pay for for some reason. Or, if you want to watch it again while you wait for the DVD release. Some movies pique my curiousity, but I just won't pay for them (like, say, Day After Tomorrow, to see if Emmerich still sucks)</div>

[Eric]

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>No dude you're missing the point, these things aren't almost as good, they're actually DVD rips, menus, subtitles, special features, etc.</div>

[Kupek]

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>Okay, but I'd still rather just wait and pay the $3 at Blockbuster. That takes less effort on my part, and I'm a relatively patient guy.</div>

[Kupek]

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>I don't consider this an iffy film.</div>
