Good work, Mao! This challenge was fun.

Thinking I'm gonna do a bonus rewatch of one of my favorites tomorrow. Just have to decide which title it will be.

Congrats to you, lisadoris!

I'm still two away from my goal of 20 new watches. LOL

I assume you mean streaming?

Haven't seen any of them, but ran a search on InstantWatcher. The first one on the list, Bulldog Drummond, qualifies with two Oscar nominations.

For the complete...

Re: The 6th Annual Academy Award Challenge (1/26 - 2/26)

We all have some favorite movies that many may not consider masterpieces. I enjoyed watching The Godfather parts 1 and 2 for the first time in this challenge and respect their place in cinematic...

Re: The 6th Annual Academy Award Challenge (1/26 - 2/26)

Watched Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid last night. Perhaps it was just late and I was tired, but can't say I was much of a fan. :( It wasn't terrible by any means, but nothing stuck or really got...

Re: The 6th Annual Academy Award Challenge (1/26 - 2/26)

Checked out The Godfather: Part 2 today. Definitely a long one, but enjoyed it a little more than the original (both are good). Really enjoyed the inclusion of Robert Di Nero and the back story of...

Re: The 6th Annual Academy Award Challenge (1/26 - 2/26)

Didn't care too much for Batman & Robin, but the first three of that series were all good IMO. Batman Returns is probably my favorite and Danny DeVito doesn't get the credit he should for his...

Re: The 6th Annual Academy Award Challenge (1/26 - 2/26)

I watched As Good as It Gets. A very enjoyable film and the best I've ever seen from Helen Hunt, who was fantastic and well deserving of her Best Actress win. Jack Nicholson also once again proved...

Haha. I rarely watch something first thing in the morning unless it's a rewatch. Way too zoned out. :D

Re: The 6th Annual Academy Award Challenge (1/26 - 2/26)

Indeed

I knew nothing about the story beforehand and was completely shocked with the turn it took. Think it made the film all that much more enjoyable.

Re: The 6th Annual Academy Award Challenge (1/26 - 2/26)

Watched Million Dollar Baby tonight and I didn't like it...I freakin' LOVED this movie. This is one of those rare occasions where my eyes were literally glued to the screen from start to finish, and...

Re: The 6th Annual Academy Award Challenge (1/26 - 2/26)

Wow! That's a lot of watching in one day.

On a similar note, I don't know how some of you all watch so many titles in one day - especially for this particular challenge. By the nature of most...

Re: The 6th Annual Academy Award Challenge (1/26 - 2/26)

Watched True Grit (2010) - not too bad. Not sure how Hailee Steinfeld's character was classified as a supporting actress, but she did a damn nice job with the role.

Re: The 6th Annual Academy Award Challenge (1/26 - 2/26)

That's nice how they released the extended editions for you hardcore fans. The copy of TFOTR I watched was 178 minutes in total and it appears the extended is 208 minutes. That's a lot of extra...

Re: The 6th Annual Academy Award Challenge (1/26 - 2/26)

You're probably right, and I do eventually plan to, even if it's not part of this challenge. Given all the recognition they've received (especially the third) and the way the first one ended, I think...

Re: The 6th Annual Academy Award Challenge (1/26 - 2/26)

Checked out Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring for the first time today (actually half today, the other half yesterday). I would be completely remiss if I don't point out that this film is...

Re: The 6th Annual Academy Award Challenge (1/26 - 2/26)

Lawrence of Arabia = 227 minutes! :eek:

Have heard great things about O'Toole's performance, but will need to set aside quite some time for this one!

Re: The 6th Annual Academy Award Challenge (1/26 - 2/26)

Checked out Braveheart for the first-time tonight. Loved it! A 3-hour film deserving of its runtime - it really allowed the story to unfold and was paced brilliantly.

We just passed the halfway...
