Nothing against Rooney’s nom. I enjoyed the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and her brave performance. I’m just here to do a little simple observation.

was thinking about this too…mostly when i saw TGWTDT (and i loved the movie, so nothing against it) and during some of the scene i was like “really-this isn’t NC-17? i feel like i’ve seen more more here than in Shame”
it just irks me b/c i know it’s all about male nudity vs. female nudity at the heart of it…but seriously-TGWTDT was more “shocking” as far as nudity goes IMO

I was thinking exactly the same thing when Rooney got her nomination. I mean hands down Rooney deserves it for Best Actress but for the Best Actor…that does disturb me with the whole female vs. male nudity. Dude we’re all naked just with clothes on, what’s the difference? Oh they don’t want a Best Actor to win for some guy who masturbates in a film most of the time? Jesus christ there’s FAR MORE TO IT THAN JUST THAT. Far more. AMPAS are wanks sometimes.

This is exactly the double standard that Michael was talking about all along in his Shame interviews…it’s ok for a woman to be completely naked on screen but if a man is showing his genitals that’s a big no-no, you get the big ol’ “scary” NC-17!

I’d also like to point out that the only major precursor that Mara had was the Globe nomination.  In addition to the Volpi Cup and a Globe nom, Michael also won LAFCA, and had a BFCA and BAFTA nom.    His snub is jarring, especially when held side-by-side to her nomination.

Moral of the story?  It’s okay to sexually torture and/or objectify naked women.  Appreciating the male form or studying compulsive (yet consensual) sexual behavior in a frank manner is a no-no.

Pretty much this.

Reinforcing the fact that Chris Dodd really does not get what’s happening, and showing just how disgustingly corrupt the MPAA relationship is with politicians, Chris Dodd went on Fox News to explicitly threaten politicians who accept MPAA campaign donations that they’d better pass Hollywood’s favorite legislation… or else:

“Those who count on quote ‘Hollywood’ for support need to understand that this industry is watching very carefully who’s going to stand up for them when their job is at stake. Don’t ask me to write a check for you when you think your job is at risk and then don’t pay any attention to me when my job is at stake,”

This certainly follows what many people assumed was happening, and fits with the anonymous comments from studio execs that they will stop contributing to Obama, but to be so blatant about this kind of corruption and money-for-laws politics in the face of an extremely angry public is a really, really, really tone deaf response from Dodd. 

Wow. Chris Dodd is not only an asshole, he’s a stupid, tone deaf asshole. And so are all the asshole Democrats who are on the wrong side of this issue because they want money from Hollywood. Guess what, Democrats? You’re finally starting to reclaim the populist mantle that could help you win back congress and keep the White House. You may want to, you know, get on the right side of public opinion you idiots.

It shows, yet again, that he just doesn’t get it. People were protesting not just because of the content of these bills, but because of the corrupt process of big industries like Dodd’s “buying” politicians and “buying” laws. To then come out and make that threat explicit isn’t a way to fix things or win back the public. It’s just going to get them more upset, and to recognize just how corrupt this process is. If Dodd, as he said in yesterday’s NY Times, really wanted to turn things around and come to a more reasonable result, this is exactly how not to do it

Not that it matters, and not that I’m some kind of rich mogul, but I’ll say this again: I have lost more money to creative accounting, and American workers have lost more jobs to runaway production, than anything associated with what the MPAA calls piracy. Chris Dodd is lying about piracy costing us jobs. Hollywood’s refusal to adapt to changing times is what’s costing the studios money. That’s it.
