Ugh! I think I've lost all respect for the Academy (or at least the group who decides these things).

Pearl Harbor for Best Sound??? Enough said.

You just know what's gonna happen. It's reflected in the nominations. LOTR is going to sweep, because everyone liked the book.

No, you are bringing the most nominated films in the world to Sonoma County! Just 'cause they get nominated or even get the Oscar doesn't make any movie good by any stretch.

I really hope Monsters Inc beats out Shrek. It was 10 times better. Well maybe 8 times better. But Shrek will win because it made more money. Just watch.

Ian--I assume that you will also be bringing back such hits of 2001 as "Glitter" and "On the Line," correct? I expect to see them advertised on your web site...

So from my count...Moulin Rouge has received 8 nominations including...Best Picture, Best Actress and...(wait for it Peter) Best editing!

Of course, it won't win Best Picture or Best Actress, but perhaps editing...

A disappointment to see Come What May wasn't nominated in the song catagory (What the hell???Pearl Harbor's song???)

And what on earth is Ridley Scott doing being nominated for Best Director? IMHO, the Best Director and Best Picture nominations are inseparable.

Why did Ridley Scott get nominated for Best Director? Because only directors nominate directors, while the whole Academy nominates films. Since directors consider themselves the "author" of a film (and are contractually billed as such with their added possessive credit), my guess is that most, if not all, directors would vote for the same films as the people who directed them. Maybe the Academy needs to revise its rules and have the director pick up the main award along with the producer. Of course, htey sometimes do both.

So you're saying these other directors haven't even seen Black Hawk Down??? (Why else would they nominate him?)

Lucky them!!!

Couldn't agree more. I hated Shrek.

Speaking of Best Song, did no one notice of "The Origin of Love" from HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH?

Both the song and that animation that went with it were great.

How many slots for the best Animated category are there?
Are there only three or were there only three nominated?
Although I didnt care much for WAKING LIFE, it would have been nice to see it get recognized with a nomination.

What a surprise. Not one single song from "Glitter" made the best song category!

I can't understand why Robert Altman is so popular. I haven't found his films all that enthralling (Mash was ok). Stacking your film with cameos from lots of major actors is no substitute for good directing.

I may not have been clear. I would assume that all (or most)directors who nominated Ridley Scott would also nominate Black Hawk Down for the Best Picture category. But while only votes from directors could hand a nomination to Scott, the directors votes for Best Picture are diluted by all the other branches of the Academy (and I believe the biggest group by far is the actor's branch).
