SUPERCUT: Every curse word from this year's Best Picture nominees

The folks at Dhreck.com put together this supercut of all the profanity from this year’s best picture nominees. “Profanity” is a bit of a misnomer though, since the video also includes things like “idiot,” “thief,” “liar,” “drunk,” and “stupid,” which aren’t even considered profane in the majority of pre-schools. Nonetheless, I was impressed by the number of times The Descendants managed to work in “twat.” Twat really is an underutilized curse word. It’s like c*nt’s wacky brother. Anyway, great job, Dhreck, excellent supercut. Though it seems strange that they left out the part in Tree of Life where the tree calls Sean Penn a f*ckknocker. That part was weird. I’m still not sure I got it.
