2009's Oscar Nominees

OOH DAT'S AH BEEN-GO -- incinerate him, please.

lmao

I've somehow never seen a Pixar film all the way through (seen most of WALL-E, I think).

I would've voted for Synecdoche, New York if it was nominated that year, but from the ones that were, I've rewatched A Serious Man multiple times so I'll go with that.

YUP

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

now that I've seen more films with Waltz I have serious doubts about his acting ability, but I thought Basterds was thrilling

wasn't Synechdoche the year before? would definitely have voted for that

Synecdoche was '08, yes.

I guess I just happen to enjoy Waltz's particular brand of ham. He even manages to bring life to that one nü-007 he was in.

i like Waltz well enough and he was one of three decent things about Spectre (Bautista and...ok two things.) He was perfect for a Bond film.

i agree w/Alfred's top 3, probably in that order.

xp
didn't see it, thought his shtick worked in Inglorious Basterds

have to watch A Serious Man again. the first time it seemed unfinished to me

(maybe it's just that I could have watched it for twice as long and was disappointed when it ended)

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

don't think A Serious Man was better than Inglorious Basterds

i thought waltz was terrible in spectre but i mostly blame the script

up is probably my favorite pixar film, never thought there was a huge gap in quality between the opening sequence and the rest of the film

wall-e is a pretty evil film admittedly

I guess I would rate Inside Out, Up, Ratatouille, and especially Coco as my favorite Pixar films

and the one with the billion dollar sequels gets 0 votes

those Alvin & the Chipmunks movies are better than Inglourious Basterds

xp fully SIX movies got 0 votes, which must be a record for these polls

billion dollar sequels?

alvin and the chipmunks?

not sure what you all are talking about

jackie brown the best tarantino movie is him somehow circumnavigating most of his dumbass tendencies. basterds is him employing all of them at once but somehow getting the balance right, it’s a powerful movie that is also... fun?

after which he totally lost it imo, at least for the moment

somehow circumnavigating most of his dumbass tendencies

this is all thanks to elmore leonard imo
