    But can they form a valid opinion on whether it deserves to win an Oscar just by believing they know what it is about?

    Would you quit with the valid points and crushing counter arguments.

    Yeah cut that shit out.

    Movie synopses don't tell what a movie is about.

    That's up to them.

    Opinions and all o that
    Of course, but could they construct a sound argument against a film receiving an Oscar based on what they have heard about it from secondary sources? Do they look just a tad foolish making comments like "I can't believe this movie being Oscar worthy." when they have no idea what the artistic content of the film is but rather just a vague notion of what it is about.

    Sure, anyone can say they don't like the sound of a film, I do it all the time. I don't like the sound of MDB but until I see it I won't be commenting on its Oscar worthiness. And here's the shocker, I don't like the sound of Brokeback Mountain either. Cowboys? Mountains? 1960's? Gays? Fuck that, I want to watch people get blown away (in a 24 sense, obviously). But until I watch it (if ever), I'll hold my tongue as to its quality. For all I know it could be the greatest story ever told (ha!).

    Hell, if I watched it I might end up agreeing with the idea that it is only winning awards because Hollywood is having a "Year of the Queer". But that won't be until I watch it...ugh.

    Ok looky here see.....

    The basic subject matter of BBM make it so it can't be Oscar worthy to me...and when I say that, I mean Best Picture.

    The individual acting performances may be great...
