 Re: Well...the 2008 Contenders Discussion Thread
Revolutionary Road is WAYYYY too low.
I'm very happy with where The Wrestler ended up. It's not just a Rourke showcase, it really is an exceptional and heartfelt film. 26 #1s.

Heh.
Though the convo that follows (Where nearly everyone repeatedly states that TDK has a better shot at winning) is also pretty hilarious.

 Re: Well...the 2008 Contenders Discussion Thread
Yeah, I'm sure Public Enemies is set to re-appear again. Unless it scores 10% at RT, it is set for at least a few noms.
