#25re: Bummer no song award for Enchanted
Posted: 2/25/08 at 9:43amOddly, I didn't really enjoy "Once", but the music is undeniably beautiful. I can't think of a better song written this year -- for a film or not for a film. It is a beautiful song about hope and redemption, and I'm just glad it had a few moments for the world to hear it.

I am SO in love with "Falling Slowly" (and, really, just the whole soundtrack from "Once").
If you haven't seen Once, rent it. The music really makes the movie. The song is fantastic in context. Gave me chills in the theater.

Oh, well, good for them! I guess it was bound to happen, seeing as Once is one of the most intimately romantic films made in quite some time.

#33BOO ONCE!!!
Posted: 2/25/08 at 2:52pmI wasn't specifically disappointed Enchanted did get a song win, but I just did not understand how the most boring song of the year won the award. Honestly, I do not get it. Neither the song nor the film. It was like musical morphine. And not in a good way.
#34BOO ONCE!!!
Posted: 2/25/08 at 9:51pmI thought all the songs were boring...and Cheno was a dippity doo as well. Really dissappointing, if this is the best of the best, imo.
