I might be in the minority here but I actually enjoyed Slumdog immensely, and thought it was well worthy of the Best Picture Oscar.
Don’t think there was any sort of conspiracy, just that it was a bloody good film.

No, you are very much in the majority (if the British box office is anything to go by).

Maybe some here don't like it because it uses all those shaky "mainstream" cinema devices like hand-held cameras and quick editing. Please.....

Oh, no, no, dear Zorin, that argument does not cut it. You know that I defended QOS in every which way, also its use of cinematography and editing. That´s not what I criticized SLUMDOG for. And I made my major gripes very clear, I think.

As I did my defence of the film.

But no worries. I know what you meant.
