Slumdog Millionaire Takes Home 8 Oscars

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the stuff-to-see dept.

Ben Burtt was robbed of his overly deserved Oscars for the sound on Wall-E, and Heath Ledger's Joker unsurprisingly got a posthumous statue, but the big winner for the night was Danny Boyle's Slumdog Millionaire with Picture, Director, Song, and five others. Go ahead movie nerds: talk amongst yourself.

    I'm not going to enter an extended rant. But I do wish this kind of story didn't make the front page on /.

    Yeah, and we can't even blame kdawson for this one.

    Oh, come on. The motto says it all... this was neiter news for nerds nor stuff that matters (TM), unlike the Chinese earthquake story. The fact that the story doesn't pertain our interests is irrelevant; it doesn't pertain to the site. I like mixed martial arts, could we have a story on /. every time a UFC event takes place?

    This reminds me of that frontpage story about the ending of The Sopranos. Interesting? Maybe. But why was it ever posted here is beyond me...

    Slashdot moderation has gone to shit. Rob Malda needs to redesign the system. Most every Slashdotter knows it. It's time to stop caring about karma.
