I just saw the previews for “Ameila” starring Hillary Swank as Amelia Earhart and the first thought I had was that Meryl has competition for that Oscar. I enjoy watching both ladies.

Meryl Streep should definitely get it! She’s amazing… Hillary Swank is good but sometimes she can be a little off-putting in her movies. There hasn’t been anything good at all for women this year but there’s still movies to be released unless there’s a certain deadline?

Gow can any game be more critically acclaimed than FF7? Won’t believe it until I play it.

I know youra BIG DC Comics fan, i’m quite the opposite, Marvel all the way. Just find their characters much more interesting and more comic bookish. Lol. BUT your totally wrong with the caption for the new Batman game.

It has broken the record for the “MOST CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED SUPER HERO VIDEO GAME”. Which means, more critically acclaimed than the Iron Man video game that was released at the same time as the movie. Now it ain’t hard to be better than movie-game-tie-ins because they’re basically rushed to created in 12 months or possibly less and they just generally usually suck.

The new Batman game is quite good though. Its been in development for quite some time and wasn’t just created cause of The Dark Knight last year. The Dark Knight didn’t have a movie-tie-in-game because they wanted Arkham Asylum to be it but it wasn’t ready in time. But, yeah the game isn’t the most critically acclaimed game ever. I believe that doesn’t actually belong to ANY game but mostly to, GTA IV from last year or a Zelda & Final Fantasy game from back in the 90’s. I think Final Fantasy IV or something?

Chase, most of the Oscar contenders come out in the fall/winter. The cut off time for the Oscars are in January, and the major contenders are usually released close to that time so they are fresh in everyone’s minds. IMO, the best movies are always released in the last 3 months of the year.
