I'm gonna throw some ace documentaries you guys' ways to check out. Dwarves Kingdom https://vimeo.com/54232520 Dwarves Kingdom is the story of a real life theme park in China where the main attraction is none of than little people! Bizarre, sad, and unique look into the world of one of the park entertainers who decides to leave to try to make it in the real world. Available to rent on iTunes and other services. Call Me Lucky https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FChmOC-Qjw Bobcat Goldthwait's heartfelt biography of his friend and mentor Barry Crimmins, a little known stand-up comic who built the Boston stand-up scene in the 80s. But Crimmins was more than a comic - he was an activist and a rape survivor, fighting against abuse of government and church. You don't know it, but you can thank him for having a major role in passing modern child pornography laws. Hilarious and tragic, it should be considered for Best Picture and Best Doc. Available on Netflix. The Thread https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4cd_thaLcA Remember when Reddit pinned the Boston Marathon Bombing on an innocent kid? Yeah, this is about that. On Netflix, only an hour long. Well well well worth the watch. Heart of a Dog https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v37BnyHefnY Laurie Anderson's essay film tribute to her dead dog Lolabelle. And also all the other passed loved ones in her life. It owns. Find it, watch it, hug your dog.

Sir Kodiak posted:It's there because people nominated it for it. And, yes, I would highly encourage people to not vote for it in that category since it doesn't have any of what the category is intended to applaud. Well, musical direction isn't just licensed song choice, it's also the way you implement those songs and use them. Mad Max makes excellent use of its score and is deserving of a nomination. Whereas The Big Short, even with a bitchin' dad rock soundtrack, lays its songs in at the wrong times. Who's loving great idea was it to explain complicated banking information at the same time Lithium and Sweet Child O Mine are playing in the background? Anyway, I'm torn between voting Best Pic for Mad Max, which is the frontrunner and phenomenal and deserving, and Tangerine which is a close runner-up, more of a dark horse, but amazing and worth the praise.

Ewar Woowar posted:I loved The Revenant and while I can understand why the type of film isn't everyone's cup of tea I can't imagine people can look at it and say it's not worthy of being one of the best films released last year. It absolutely is not. Pretty to look at, but its a tired story made excruciatingly long.
