HE GOT IT! HE GOT ONE MAN! YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not only that, but the movie got 8 nominations (including "Best Picture"), which I did not see coming. Very happy for the movie, very happy for Austin, and I hope this gives the Presleys something to smile about. I think I might care more that he goes than if he actually wins. I'm not saying he's thinking about skipping It (No Way In HELL). But I will say that if he doesn't go for any particular reason, he's doing a disservice to Lisa Marie, who would really want him to go! So for me, I might be good. I'll be happy if he wins, but I'm even more happy for the nomination.
So I was completely off-track with The Bride . Did not expect the film to crash and burn as hard as it did with both critics AND the box-office. After getting murdered, a woman by the name of Ida is brought back to life with the intention of being a companion to the oh-so iconic Frankenstein. And together they wreck havoc. Like Wuthering Heights , the movie wasn't terrible but it had a lot of problems. The biggest issue with this film is that it tries way too hard to be edgy and it just doesn't work. It wanted to be this hardcore feminist take on Frankenstein , but it just felt convoluted and slightly underwritten. It had this plotline involving Ida causing some revolution for women and did pretty much nothing with it until the last minute. It was kind of a let down. The best thing about the movie however was the performances and chemistry between Buckley and Christian Bale. I thought they were strangely endearing, and this might be a better love story than Wuthering Heights (...
