I know, I've been lazy about posting a "best of" list of films for 2004 like I have done every other year of this blog (2), but this past year, I saw mostly craptastic films, with a few exceptions. SIDEWAYS, for starters. That movie is so hysterical. Thomas Haden Church (yes that dude from Wings and Ned & Stacy) is up for best supporting actor for his role in that. He should win it and his career should be back on track!
So, in a prequel to my best of list, I will list the movies I still need to see:
FINDING NEVERLAND
MILLION DOLLAR BABY
THE AVIATOR
COLLATERAL
ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND
KINSEY
THE POLAR EXPRESS
THE MOTORCYCLE DIARIES
SUPER SIZE ME
PHANTOM OF THE OPERA
HOUSE OF FLYING DAGGERS
RAY
That's about it, there are other movies up for Oscars that I haven't seen, but I don't really have a desire to see them.
I'm suprised that ANCHORMAN, SHAUN OF THE DEAD, SAW, THE LIFE AQUATIC WITH STEVE ZISSOU, TEAM AMERICA, KILL BILL VOL2, and FAHRENHEIT 9/11 (well not really about that, there's an anti-Michael Moore thing going on) not getting nominations but oh well. Still good films.
Films not up for Oscars that I need to see
MEAN GIRLS
MEAN CREEK
I HEART HUCKABEES
ALFIE
THE MACHINIST
SAVED!
GARDEN STATE
NAPOLEON DYNAMITE (I know, I've been REALLY BAD)
Yeah, I've been so bad this year. The only movie up for an Oscar that I have seen is SIDEWAYS. So in typical fashion, THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO SWEEP! ^_^ Yes, best director (Alex Payne), best picture, best supporting actor (thomas hayden church), best supporting actress (virginia madsen), it SHOULD SWEEP OR NO WINE FOR THE REST OF THE DECADE!
So yeah, expect the best of list sometime in August ;-)
