movie marathon in a long time

I watched some movies last week, most of them are Oscar nominees. Though the Oscar was over, but the nomination list is always a movie choice guide for me to follow. I've watched Milk, Slumdog Millionaire, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Vicky Christina Barcelona, Revolutionary Road, and The Reader all in a roll. I'm not really a Award follower geek, but kinna a Oscar goer. I do believe in this theory, i don't have all the time for all the movies, but at least i know that the award mentioned movies are worth watching, at least at some points. For Milk, i would've watch it, for the matter of the subject. For Benjamin Button, the sake of the celebrities stardom power. For Vicky Christina Barcelona, the hot Spanish couple instead of Woody Allen. For Revolutionary Road and The Reader, we have the Extraordinary Kate Winslet. For Slumdog, it's a no, not before all the awards it got, but after i watched it, of cause i found the uniqueness of it, sure it has its way to manage all the awards, including winning the best picture of Oscar.
