2004 Oscars - Page 5

Kalimac · 02-29-2004, 02:55 PM

Considering that the 76th Academy Awards will be presented tonight and that Return of the King is up for 11 of those awards . . I've posted the tally on the other page a list of nominations and awards for the film this past year. ROTK has won nearly every possible award from every critics group as well as garnered nominations and wins from the film industry (the guilds).

The significant wins for the film include: Peter Jackson taking Best Director from the Directors Guild (DGA); Return of the King winning Best Picture from the Producer's Guild (PGA); and the ROTK cast winning Best Ensemble from the Screen Actors Guild (SAG). These are all, in general, academy predictors.

Here's a link to Oscar Central predictions for the nights event:

Oscar Central Predictions 2004

They're predicting that ROTK will take 9 out of the 11 awards. But, with the Oscars . . anything can happen . . ROTK could sweep, or split with other films for the awards. Whatever happens . . it will be fun to watch!

The Academy Awards begin at 8pm EST/ 5pm PT.

Good luck to Peter Jackson and Return of the King!!

Anyone know when it airs in the UK?

Kalimac · 02-29-2004, 03:09 PM

Not sure but I think there is a 6 hour difference between UK time and EST . . so if the show starts at 8 EST . . that would mean it would be about 1 AM overseas. Not sure though.

Time and Date

Tuor of Gondolin · 02-29-2004, 03:58 PM

There's an 8:00 P.M. EST preshow. Awards start at 8:30, 1:30 A.M. in U.K., but it's scheduled to end (of course, often runs late) at 2 A.M. (7 A.M.) in U. K., and it will probably be 5 A. M. or later before major awards are reached. Why not just sleep and get up early? (and tape for minor awards).

Of course, West Coast of North America people have it easy. Then again, the awards are held in Southern California.

Or you could just come on Entmoot to find out who won, since we'll probably be talking about it here, regardless.

jerseydevil · 02-29-2004, 10:00 PM

I'm here. :devil:

But I'm not going to watch it - I might catch the last bit.

Christiana · 02-29-2004, 10:10 PM

Woohoo!it just won for best Art Direction!

**crickhollow** · 02-29-2004, 10:55 PM

bah! out of 150 channels on my parents' satellite, we don't get the Academy Awards.

Thanks for the updates, though

You don't get ABC? It's on ABC. It is time delayed for you though.

Right. How could it not be on in Washington? Especially since so far ROTK seems to be cleaning up on the Oscars.

Gerbil · 02-29-2004, 11:28 PM

/So far won everything it's up for:

art direction
costume design
sound mixing (or just sound as it's down on the oscars site)
visual effects
makeup

just one question - what the hell is the difference in the categories sound mixing and sound editing???

Gerbil · 02-29-2004, 11:58 PM

best score - well played to Howard shore, especially since it is a homage to FotR in a lot of places which already won this award

Just in - best editing.
A shame, city of god looked rather original, but can't really complain.

If it carries on like this (it winning everything it's nominated for) RotK will join Titanic and Ben Hur as most oscars won.

jerseydevil · 03-01-2004, 12:03 AM

Did they already give the "best bathroom fixture to be installed in an actor's trailer award" yet?

Christiana · 03-01-2004, 12:07 AM

no, still waiting for that one

LOTR has one 7 so far

What about Best Sandwich Made by Movie Catering, Grippiest Key Grip... etc.

Gerbil · 03-01-2004, 12:17 AM

Best song so 8 now - this one at least was deserved

Gerbil · 03-01-2004, 12:19 AM

So 3 left, the big 2 (it's bound to win, I'd stake my life on it right now).

Best adapted screenplay still to go though...... oooooooh.
I'd like it to win 'em all and become joint most oscars won, but at the same time it so blatantly doesn't deserve this award I'll rather come down on it winning 10 and missing this one.

Having said that, seems like it will win it given current trend, so 11 it'll probably be

I am waiting for 'best, most obscure award reason' film I must admit, it's just bizarre this year. Why is City of God up for best film but not in best foreign film catagory? That makes no sense :/

Is that really an Oscar? If they win it...

Given the competition, and the Oscars, they probably will.

I was just going to post that - but I think everyone knows my opinions.

**Nurvingiel** · 03-01-2004, 12:30 AM

Heh heh. Actually, I think everyone knows my opinions too.

Since I just came in here to poke fun at the Oscars anyway, I think I'll leave and go watch Band of Brothers.

Cheerio!
