There Will Be Blood will be here
By Carl Hoover
| Wednesday, January 23, 2008, 04:56 PM
Opening this Friday (Jan. 25) at both Starplex Galaxy 16 and Hollywood Jewel 16 in Waco: There Will Be Blood. That means all five films nominated for Best Picture honors at this year’s Academy Awards have played Waco.
May, June and November may be the bonus months for blockbuster films in Waco, but January with its pre-Oscar schedules isn’t a slouch, either …
Leaving town (or at least first-run theaters): Sweeney Todd, The Kite Runner, The Orphanage, Enchanted, The Water Horse, The Great Debaters and P.S. I Love You. Whew.

I was really disappointed with There Will Be Blood, and I know I wasn’t the only one in the theater feeling that way. It was too long, too slow, and lacked any significant conflict. And that surprise ending mentioned in the review? Lame. How on Earth did this get nominated for Best Picture?
