Unless Robin Williams was playing the prank caller in Mrs. Doubtfire getup, I'm not sure I want to watch.
― Bobby Ken Doll (Eric H.), Monday, 26 November 2012 04:19 (eleven years ago) link
It's certainly one of the drippier episodes in that it quite resembled a Robin Williams movie.

Mike Birbiglia comes out as tonight's host. I honestly have no idea who he is. Maybe I'll recognize him in a bit. Not a good sign.

The limit for an indie budget is supposed to be $20 million according to the Spirit Awards rules (although it's at the committee's discretion).

Variety: Movies still too damn long
http://www.variety.com/article/VR1118062671
The data also shows that length is more of a turn-off for younger moviegoers. That may be a silver lining (both puns intended) for this year's crop of Oscar wannabes, every single one of which eclipses two hours -- except "Argo," which uses each of its 120 minutes to good effect.

no one has really figured out what the Gothams are
― saltwater incursion (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 27 November 2012 15:29 (eleven years ago) link
Alfred, I ended up being as into Loneliest Planet as I was into Day Night Day Night. I'm a soft touch when it comes to clinical studies of human behavior that seem directed by someone not human.
― Bobby Ken Doll (Eric H.), Tuesday, 27 November 2012 15:35 (eleven years ago) link
isn't Day Night Day Night 6 years old? I think I saw it but can't be sure.
― saltwater incursion (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 27 November 2012 15:37 (eleven years ago) link
The Gothams seem like the East Coast version of the Indie Spirits -- but I have no idea what the eligibility requirements are.

Neither GGB and the chick were human exactly.

I have no idea what the eligibility requirements are
Apparently, budgets under $20M aren't one of them.
Star Wars '77 cost $10M

LOL Magic Mike is an indie.
― Bobby Ken Doll (Eric H.), Tuesday, 27 November 2012 18:29 (eleven years ago) link
(In order that Matty McC could be nominated for both lead and supporting, I guess.)
― Bobby Ken Doll (Eric H.), Tuesday, 27 November 2012 18:32 (eleven years ago) link
it was pretty low-budget! and WB did not produce it.

Feel like a Spirit nod was inevitable for Dowd, but happy to see it nonetheless.
― Bobby Ken Doll (Eric H.), Tuesday, 27 November 2012 18:40 (eleven years ago) link
Willis over Ed Norton in Moonrise is incorrect.

I missed the brief NY run of Middle of Nowhere, hope they get to mailing.
Willis is great in MK.

Silver Linings christ
― Gukbe, Tuesday, 27 November 2012 18:51 (eleven years ago) link
Yeah, I would pick Willis over Norton (and both well over Murray).
― Bobby Ken Doll (Eric H.), Tuesday, 27 November 2012 18:52 (eleven years ago) link
Beasts of the Southern Wild meant nothing to me.
― the little prince of inane false binary hype (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 27 November 2012 18:52 (eleven years ago) link
Willis is the only person I remember from MK.
Detrius brings out the utter nihilist in you, huh.

other actresses to ponder at year-end:
Rachel Weisz, The Deep Blue SeaCarlen Altman, The Colr Wheel
― saltwater incursion (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 27 November 2012 18:55 (eleven years ago) link
Weisz definitely. The Deep Blue Sea looks like it might get stepped on (too early in the year?)
― the little prince of inane false binary hype (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 27 November 2012 18:56 (eleven years ago) link
andAriane Lebed, Attenberg
I just don't think T.Davies is up-to-date enough for the cool kids, or fusty enough for the oldsters (sex and suicide, etc).
― saltwater incursion (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 27 November 2012 18:58 (eleven years ago) link
Weisz would probably get my vote. Winstead was good too.
