Pic of the Day: “It’s midnight.” “Yes, so it is. But, why…” “Goodbye.” “No, no, wait. You can’t go now. It’s only…” “Oh, I must, please. Please, I must!” “But, why?” “Well, I-I, oh, the Prince. I haven’t met the Prince.” “The Prince? But, didn’t you know that…”
The Oscar Quest: Reconsidered (Best Supporting Actress, 1967-1968)
The Oscar Quest began in May of 2010. I finished about fifteen months later, and wrote it up for this site. That was essentially the first thing I did on here. Five years have passed since then. I’ve grown as a person. My tastes have changed, matured (or gotten more immature, in some cases). So it feels fitting, on the five year anniversary of the site and of the Oscar Quest, to revisit it.
I want to see just how my opinions about things have changed over the past five years. I didn’t do any particular work or catch-up for this. I didn’t go back and watch all the movies again. Some I went back to see naturally, others I haven’t watched in five years. I really just want to go back and rewrite the whole thing as a more mature person, less concerned with making points about certain categories and films than with just analyzing the whole thing as objectively as I can to give people who are interested as much information as possible.
This is the more mature version of the Oscar Quest. Updated, more in-depth, as objective as possible, less hostile. You can still read the old articles, but know that those are of a certain time, and these represent the present. (more…)

Pic of the Day: “Shall I finish him off?” “No. Treat him.” “But, sir” “Okubo, you would expect the same, wouldn’t you? Endo, treat him.” “We are low on morphine as it is.” “Sir, the Americans would not treat a wounded Japanese soldier.” “Son, have you ever met one? Treat him.”
