Anyways, in addition to the massive critical praise, it's probably going to win Best Pic at the Oscars. Like I said, not bad...just overrated.
I think they are comparable if you think it was given to much praise

but w/e! lol

Metacritic
Slumdog: 86 ("Universal acclaim")
Twilight: 56 ("Mixed or average reviews")

Rotten Tomatoes

I don't see how their critical reception is comparable at all.

you think SM got to great of critical reception, I think Twilight got to great of critical reception.

I was just saying that Twlight is a movie that I dont understand how it got its reviews like you feel about SM

A few people asked but I haven't seen an answer yet.

What's the source for this release date? Has it been verified by anyone outside of the first post of this thread?

For the record, I agree very strongly that Slumdog Millionaire should be Best Picture.

I thought slumdog looked bad from the trailer, but my girlfriend got me to watch it and I can say that it was actually a good movie.
