The Coen Brothers lead the charge last night at the 80th Academy Awards, topping the lists with four wins for No Country For Old Men, including Best Director(s), Best Film, Best Supporting Actor for Javier Bardem and Best Adapted Screenplay. Coming in second was not There WIll Be Blood or Atonement but rather The Bourne Ultimatum, which sneaked in with a trio of technical awards for Editing, Sound Mixing and Sound Editing.

PT Anderson's effort didn't go unrewarded though, taking cinematography, while Daniel Day Lewis surprised precisely no one by bagging Best Actor. Marion Cotillard did raise a few eyebrows, edging out favourite Cate Blanchett and snatching Best Actress for La Vie En Rose, while Tilda Swinton managed a similarly unexpected winwith Best Supporting Actress for Michael Clayton.

Religious leaders let out a collective sigh of relief as Norbit lost out on Best Make-Up, having declared that such an event would usher in the last days and form the final sign of the apocalypse.

RE: Bruce Willis to star in film adaption of Kane and Lynch.
I enjoyed the game, despite it's problems. But the movie is bound to end up as a watered down, rated 15 flick, especially if Bruce Willis is involved. There is just no way a studio is going to pay a big star to be in an ultra violent, ultra sweary movie, which will only appeal to a select audience, or fans of the game. Shame. ... Read More

Never having played the game, I can't even tell you if it's any good. But Bruce Willis it seems is down to star as Kane in this movie adaption of the video game. lms has more hereApparently, Billy Bob Thornton is rumored to play the psychopathic Lynch. If the script is good, chance of a fast paced thriller with black comedy. But not holding my breath for that. ... Read More
