[The Thought Process]

People are softhearted fools that like sappy third world love stories far too much, hence the Dark Knight getting so little Oscar love to begin with. Slumdog is probably going to enjoy for reasons people don’t even understand. Oh, and I like to randomly pick things, so this is probably a losing ticket but well worth the price of entry.
