Feels like the Academy is going to reward some stinkers again. The nominations already have several issues, the worst of which is the bizarre decision to not include The Lego Movie in the Best Animated Feature category.
But rather than have an extended diatribe about the process, I'll just do a quickie scatter-gun preview.

Philip Seymour Hoffman (1967 - 2014) - a retrospective
There's already talk that he's the best actor of my generation..I don't exactly agree but he's certain among the best. The idea of being one "best" actor bothers me a bit. I thought I'd go through his career and recall some of my thoughts about his more noteworthy performances.
Going through his filmography, I was repeatedly impressed by just how many great films Hoffman has been involved with. In this post, I'll highlight some of his most noteworthy work. A lot of his work was as part of large ensembles, but even then Hoffman always held his own.
