Let’s talk about movies!


by Rachel Held Evans Read Distraction Free

So the 82nd Academy Awards are scheduled for Sunday and even with the new extended list of nominees for Best Picture, Dan and I are a little behind. (We’ve got a pretty sweet setup in our basement for movie-viewing + we have a moral aversion to spending $25 for 2 hrs. of entertainment = we wait for Netflix to send DVDs to our mailbox.)

I’d love to hear your thoughts on the following movies, nominated for Best Picture:

  • District 9 (In my opinion, over-hyped, kinda disappointing.)
  • An Education
  • The Hurt Locker (In our Netflix queue)
  • Inglorious Basterds (In our Netflix queue)
  • The Blind Side (In our Netflix queue)
  • Precious
  • A Serious Man
  • Up (I cried during this movie. I bet y’all know which part!)
  • Up in the Air

Feel free to make a case for your pick for Best Picture, rant about your least favorite of the ten, review all the ones you’ve seen, or share your thoughts on Driscoll’s controversial remarks.
