The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

It looks like a funny movie.  Maybe I'll download it a few months after it's released.  I don't like to get caught up in all the hype.

Toy Story 3 and How to Train Your Dragon will without a doubt be nominated. The third slot will go to either Despicable Me or Tangled(depending on how well received Tangled is). Alpha and Omega doesn't have a chance, I'm sorry. It got really negative reception and it didn't do so hot in the Box Office.

Toy Story 3 is without doubt the best of the three by a large margin.

I agree, WeirdRaptor. Toy Story 3 was one of my favorite films this year. Well How to Train Your Dragon was too but I liked Toy Story 3 better because it was the conclusion to a franchise I grew up with. HtTYD was a good movie, maybe even a great movie, but it is pretty overrated. I've seen people on the IMdB boards for HtTYD who treat this film like it's its own religion. It's not bad but geez, there are better animated movies out there. I haven't seen Despicable Me yet but it is on my list of movies to see.

Pfff...Toy Story 3 is SOOOO going to win! Considering how it's the highest grossing animated film on record, setting over 1 billion dollars world wide, it'll definitely steal the spot.

Well on top of that, it's also a Pixar movie. To be honest, all though it would to see a non Pixar movie win an Oscar for a change, this time I really do want Toy Story 3 to win. I think the Toy Story franchise is long overdue for an Oscar.

Haven't seen this film but I've seen the trailer.  Not quite sure what to make of it but I don't think, as previously stated by Animeboye, that the film will win the award due to the negative reviews.

Not only that, but A&O seems like a pretty poor movie, as it went out of the big theater and into the dollar theater pretty darn quick! Whereas with Toy Story, three, it took until October...and it's STILL playing there, despite the DVD release

I went to see Alpha and Omega along with Toy Story 3. Toy Story 3 was definitely better in my opinion. Better story, better acting, better dialogue, etc. Alpha and Omega fails to deliver and it's too predictable. I mean I don't hate it, but it could have been a lot better.
