Can't wait to see most of the best picture noms, other than Mama Mia, In Bruges, and maybe The Reader (haven't really heard much about it.)

Vicky Cristina Barcelona, Burn After Reading, and Happy-Go-Lucky were all fucking awesome. Gonna see Slumdog Millionaire this week and can't wait til the rest, especially The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. That looks incredible.

Yeah, I was kinda curious why you hadn't seen it yet. It is so clever with its comedy, and it brings the drama, too. Its great stuff. One of my favorite movies from the year.
