[EagleWings]

Letters From Iwo Jima
Little Miss Sunshine

Which would you vote for best picture and why?

[Alice's Wonderland]

None of the Above.

[EagleWings]

None of the Above.

So I'm guess you don't like movies then? Because they were all fantastic in their own way and I couldn't see nominating anything else besides those.

[French25Fan]

I haven't seen any of those movies. But the one I'd like to see the most would be The Queen.
Anyone seen it? Thoughts?

[mikeland]

I've only seen "The Queen" and "Little Miss Sunshine." Of those two, I'd vote for Little Miss.

After Walk The Line and Joaquin Phoenix got punked and insulted last year by not winning, I coudln't give a damn about any of these lame movies.

My vote is for Borat

[EagleWings]

If you vote for Borat you show your own ignorance and support a movie where the guy walks into a gun store and asks what kind of gun is best to shoot a Jew with. I'm sorry, worst movie ever.

Not at all. I love movies. I don't like the ones picked.

A little high and mighty?

I saw The Queen, only one on the list I've seen, and really enjoyed it.

Don't ask people's opinion and then bash them for it. Who do you think you are? Honestly.

I'm sorry but as somebody with Jewish friends that highly disturbs me that people think that kind of crap is funny.

Well EW, I'm afraid you're showing your own ignorance in this matter.

Borat, as a film, does not mock Jewish people (Sasha Baron Cohen himself is Jewish.) Borat, as a character, does, but it is done to show people what is wrong with society.

The film points out how closed minded our society actually is. Why do you have an issue with a movie that calls out anti-semitics, racists, homophobes and other people that can't get their mind past their own hate? Borat is not Dumb and Dumber or Dodgeball, you can't just judge the film by whats on the surface. It's the deeper meaning that actually matters. Mature movie goers laugh for the right reasons, immature movie goers laugh for the wrong reasons or choose to not laugh at all and cause a fuss about something that is simply not true.

I think you might have missed the entire point of the movie completely.

And just for the record... i have a a few Jewish friends who absolutely loved it.
