Real concept drawings of “Lord of Light” (aka “Argo”) by Jack Kirby for Science-Fiction Land. The movie was supposed to be turned into a theme park eventually.

Congrats to the two Quebecois (Canadians) nominated for the academy awards: Kim Nguyen and Yan England. I met them both (briefly) and I’m really happy for them.

With Les Invasions Barbares, Incendies and now this, the cinema of Quebec is getting a lot of exposure lately and I feel really proud.

Félicitations messieurs, vous faites rayonner notre culture!

All these movies weren’t even nominated for best picture. Now what does it say about the academy?

These directors never won an Oscar. Now, what does it say about the Academy?

*winning best foreign picture is not the same as best director folks.

Cate Blanchett is awesome.
