NBR No Guts, No Glory – Better Late Than Never
It could be that in just a few minutes the National Board of Review will announce their top ten. But just in case, and because I plumb forgot last night to set this up, let’s do a quick round. Ryan’s post below could be your choice, more or less, but with the No Guts, we’re always looking for the wild card pick, one you would never expect to happen. In other words, don’t say Up in the Air wins Best Picture or you will be disqualified. You can have UP TO THREE choices for this. Mine are going to be:
In the Loop wins Best Picture
In the Loop wins Best Screenplay
In the Loop wins Best Director
Now you.

OMG,OMG, first word on Holmes!
“Really fun movie, and easily the best film Ritchie has ever made. It’s got a strong PIRATES vibe, the cast is uniformly great, and it’s a lot funnier than you’re expecting.
So, hey, at least December has one film that doesn’t suck.”
OMG,OMG,OMG!

Sorry but a Pirates vibe does not bode well for me. And anyway, The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus is coming out this month and it’s terrific. I’ll be surprised if Sherlock Holmes is anywhere near its league.
EDIT: Unless you’re being sarcastic…

Not sarcastic. Love Pirates. Plus, I haven`t seen it. Some guy Slater from chud.com who gets to see all new movies saw it and loved it. It`s his quote. People who post on those boards say he`s reliable.
But there`s also a pan @ The Awards Circuit WEBSITE. Of course, I don`t believe them expect that McAdams wasn`t impressive. That, however, must be accurate.
