Year: 2009

  • Golden Globe Nominations 2009

    Nominations are in! Just with a quick look, I’ve only seen 60% of the nominees, so I’m excited to see the rest. Looking good for some of those peoples there. Not really big surprises, except for a couple double nominations  and one double nomination in a category… and some new names in the Foreign category.

    My scandalous and ironic side says Peruvians will hate Chile even more (for unnecessary issues) – dearest The Milk of Sorrow didn’t make it to the list.

    Also! Jumpy claps for Glee!! and Jumpy bloody hands for Dexter!!

  • Full Cycle YAM – 007

    Congrats, Amy! You’ve made it a year!
    Now please, get to work on that website you’ve been talking about all this time.

    Yeah, where is Nate? Yeah, that. Nate and I are working on something else, which is nothing at the moment… just a random gig, which will hopefully fuel our bank accounts a bit and let us work on YAM fully for a month or two…

    These nominations seem like a pretty random bunch. Especially considering Nine has had little to no love until now… with 10 nominations (a big WEEEE for Marion!!), and also finally some love true for Inglourious Basterds~

  • More Love for Hurt Locker from New York

    The New York Film Critics also revealed their choices for this year, and Hurt Locker is already a lock for a Best Picture coming newer nominations, which would mean a serious female director for the win… finally.

    Also, more snubs for Carey Mulligan, and mixes for Best Actor. But Supporting are locks.

    Winners after the break.

  • Greedy Boy by Kim Young Ha

    Greedy Boy tells the story of a boy (?) who eats everything without stopping… kind of a gruesome ending~~~ and a new cycle begins! Those jumping scenes reminded me of Tekkon.

    Animation is rocking on this one~ Big cheers to Kim Young Ha.
