Now that I've seen it I understand Benjamin Buttons' 13 AA nominations

76.94.52.164

sjb

IF those nominations had been for...
boredom
self importance
preciousness
being trite
editing that calls attention to itself
effects that feel very fake
emotional disconnection/stiffness
dark lighting
dialogue as platitudes
believing length equals greatness
the worst newborn baby sound ever
best supporting actress
costume design

age changes of Brad Pitt and then it went on to give you a story etc

self importance is what I got out of it as well

actually I really liked the first hour but quickly got bored after that

the boat/sub scene was fun but I did not care for their relationship at all

thanks
