Peter Travers eclipsed by who?
http://www.thereeler.com/features/the_top_10_of_top_10_lists_2006_part_ii.php
Producers Guild nominees; sub United 93 for Little Ms Sunshine for the Oscar list?
I was going to finally start the detrius thread on NuILX and comment on the SAG nominations, but never mind.
I’m assuming ppl who think Letters from Iwo Jima says anything remotely original about war (or anything unoriginal in a superior way)are the ones who hadn’t seen any tearjerking boxing melodramas before Million Dollar Baby.
(Actually, it might be my second-favorite of the BP nominees, but I haven’t seen Eastwood’s to know if Ed G. is going off on a mad Eastwood-lovefest again.)
does this have cachet just cuz Ebert was a Crash loon last year?
Maybe, but I don’t buy that Babel is any more in debt to Crash than Little Miss Sunshine.

WGA: LMS & Departed
I’m not sure I even remember Wahlberg giving the middle finger in The Departed! Musta been more monumental if you don’t give and receive it on a daily basis.
and I’d never subject myself to this, but hey:
