I want to give an update about Children of Men. The Oscar Nominations came out today, and apparently COM is considered an '06 film. And the only nomination it got was Best Adapted Screenplay. This is incredibly stupid, but not all that suprising if I think that the entire movie was promoting the Pro-Life position. A few years ago, The Cider House Rules is nominated for all sorts of awards, and won a few, and it's promoting abortion. It's a despicable film that I absolutely hate, but a winner none the less. And Children of Men gets ignored. What a bummer since it's BY FAR the best movie of the last year...even though I saw it in January.
