Like some of you here I was fortunate enough to have seen In the Loop already and it remains one of the funniest films I’ve seen in a long time. I think I ACTUALLY LOL’ed more than I ever have. Well deserved nom.
saw In The Loop last week – didn’t love it, but did laugh a couple times and smiled a couple times. For the most part it was meh imho.
Peter Capaldi as a govt. bureaucrat – TW and DW fannish squee!
Thrilled for In The Loop. Shame Peter Capaldi wasnt nominated for Best Actor.
Agree. I posted elsewhere that I thought he should have gotten a nom. And Mimi Kennedy in supporting actress. Amazing perf.
The Secret of the Kells totally deserves the nomination. I was hoping it would get it, but I didn’t really believe it would.
Saw Kells and I can tell you, animators loved this film for its visual bravery and obvious love of the makers for the subject matter. Moore said he wanted to plumb the depths of Irish mythology and although he made the story with mainstream appeal (it is pretty straightforward) it still transcends the formulaic Disney 2D while being more accessible and family friendly than Triplets of Belleville or Persepolis. It’s a wonderful film and fully deserving of the nod, moreso than several others in the category.
