Movie Box Office

RE: Movie Discussion Thread II

I'm really looking forward to 'Mama'. It's co-produced by Guillermo del Toro. It reminds a bit of a Supernatural episode in which there were two kids living inside the walls of a house. Also, I highly recommend Pan's Labyrinth which is, in my opinion, one of the best movies ever made.

That is what I meant. Thank you for translating my gibberish.
 
RE: Movie Discussion Thread II

When the Academy Award nominations go up, I usually have a predicted list of what will win that I choose before the awards air. That's a pretty fun side-game and makes watching the awards actually kind of exciting (Awards? Exciting? What is this I don't even).
