Been a while but time to live blog another classic of the cinema. This won Best Picture on Sunday’s Academy Awards but was overshadowed by Will Smith slapping Chris Rock on stage. It’s only right to put the spotlight on it.

20th Century Studios. Fox was too conservative for Disney.

I admire how the camera never stops moving. I can see why it won Best Cinematography at the Oscars.

Wonderful eye for detail in that alley scene. I know it was a tough decision between this and Dune for Best Production Design but the Academy made the right choice.

Is Shawn Levy the biggest hack a CS member has worked for? I'm going to say "yes" so they don't have to.

Sunglasses that allow you to see the real world. Quentin Tarantino sure loves to pay homage to his favorite characters.

These effects make Inception look amateur.

Not that that franchise has been a display of talented filmmakers at the helm, but even so they must just be confident it'll sell tickets in spite of its director.

I didn’t know this movie was a sequel to Social Network. I thought Armie Hammer was cancelled.

Wasn’t Night at the Museum your favorite movie in 2006?

The love story between a girl and a computer program. Is this the long awaited sequel to Tron Legacy.
