Yeah I did see the similar comparisons between "Forrest Gump" and "Benjamin Button". Then again, we're talking about the same screenwriter who wrote both movies, so no one can claim hack here. Still, yeah similar situational line, and both good movies. I am questionable about the 13 nominations, and also questionable about Slumdog Millionaire's 10 nominations. Oh well. That's the Academy for you, eh?

I watched benjamin button the night before NYE and it totally killed my buzz. I mean, it's good, but jesus fuck people need to calm down.
Parts were about as cliche as it gets...
Milk was the best film I saw in 2008.

A bit surprised the actors from 'Slumdog Millionaire' aren't nominated.

I think Benjamin Button is a good movie. Not amazing, but definitely good.

Yeah. I have this odd feeling people love to push the "great" button nonstop. :/
