General Dog: Apr 26, 2008; Everybody's working for the weekend

Lukewarm take- The Martian is fine, fun enough and completely disposable. In an ideal world there would be a movie about as good as the Martian out every week.

Lid: Feb 18, 2005; And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

From David Bowie to Nirvana.

CapnAndy: Feb 27, 2004; Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.

If they do this throughout the night, I'm okay with it. This is a pretty cool setup for the actor noms.

Henry Cavill also looks like he's trapped in a well. He's too buff.

Really buff actors have usually gained all that muscle really fast through um methods and don't know how to get a goddamn suit fitted right :argh:

Kate Winslet totally did not look or act like Kate Winslet in Steve Jobs. It was pretty impressive.

Good job sticking to the gimmick because after the screenplay you need a supporting actress

Strange that they seem to be doing Best Lead and Best Supporting Actress at the same time?

Good to see they found the fifteen seconds of Lee's dialogue that didn't have the N word in it.

I thought she had a great performance, but the format of the film combined with the Sorkinese distracting the audience puts her at a huge disadvantage here.
