Hello Eavesdroppers, has we were told by our “boss”. Last week we skipped a post since this week we have a bigger theme to talk about, which is the Oscars, that were awarded last Sunday (26/02/2012).
We were told to talk about the categories related to our blog, which in our case is music.
Well let’s be honest when comparing the nominees for Best Soundtrack of this year with the previous ones, we can see that among “The Adventures of Tintin”, “The Artist”, “Hugo”, “Tinker Taylor Soldier Spy”, and “War Horse”, we don’t know which one is the best and to be honest “The Artist” shouldn’t even have been nominated to “Best Soundtrack”, but went even further and won many other categories, thank God none of them related to music. Another big failure on the nominees was on “Sound Mixing”.
Really, let’s not even start with the poor translation of “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo”, then we have “Moneyball”, “War Horse”, and one movie that doesn’t have nothing in common with all the other movies and it’s the biggest failure, which is “Transformers”. The best movie awarded among all was “Hugo” is to be congratulated.
Our final disagreement is with “”Original Song”, which was a crime, the two nominees were “Man or Muppet” from the movie “Muppets” and “Real in Rio” from the movie “Rio”, we are totally against the decision, it was a huge mistake to compare an animation movie, which was done with an enormous amount of music, with a movie that everyone loves because of the childhood character. So for the first time we think that both movies should be winners.
Nice weekend everyone.
