Oscars 2004

Well, I'm guessing either Bill Murray or Sean Penn for best Actor, Charlize Theron for best actress, RotK for best fil, and PJ for best director.

RoTK should win plenty, after all the other two films seemed to be cheated out of some awards.

I've heard that many LOTR fans are bummed because RotK was "snubbed" on acting nominations. I'm not sure that is the case. The movies are an example of ensemble acting at its finest. The Hollywood Machine doesn't really know how to deal with or acknowledge that. So even though there were many fine individual performances in RotK (and the other films), the Academy decided to take it's normal, mainstream aproach to determining nominations.

I'm not sure that fans have any reason to be upset about the lack of acting nominations in light of all the other nominations the film has been given.

Personally, I think there is an excellent chance they will win most of the awards for which they are nominated. (How can "Into the West" not win best song?)

And Peter Jackson in a shoo-in. No one else has ever done what he's done.

CLINT EASTWOOD? What'd he direct? I hope RotK wins Best Picture and the one for Into the West. I love that song, and it was done beautifully.
Johnny Depp got the nomination for...? what, James Barrie, or Jack- oh, sorry, CAPTAIN- Jack Sparrow?

No one will beat Sean Penn, if you go see Mystic River, you will understand why he is going to win Best Actor...

'Then Tuor arrayed himself in the hauberk, and set the helm upon his head, and he girt himself with the sword; black were sheath and belt with clasps of silver. Thus armed he went forth from Turgon's hall, and stood upon the high terraces of Taras in the red light of the sun. None were there to see him, as he gazed westward, gleaming in silver and gold, and he knew not that in that hour he appeared as one of the Mighty of the West, and fit to be father of the kings of the Kings of Men beyond the Sea, as it was indeed his doom to be; but in the taking of those arms a change came upon Tuor son of Huor, and his heart grew great within him. And as he stepped down from the doors the swans did him reverence, and plucking each a great feather from their wings they proffered them to him, laying their long necks upon the stone before his feet; and he took the seven feathers and set them in the crest of his helm, and straightway the swans arose and flew north in the sunset, and Tuor saw them no more.' -Of Tuor and his Coming to Gondolin

I have not only not heard of Mystic River, but I have not seen it. I have only seen Sean Penn in one other movie, but liked him, and have no problem watching him win an Oscar. When are the ceremonies, anyhow?

Yours truly,

The Ignorant Heathen

I'm fairly sure the ceremonies are on February 29th this year.

I want to see Keisha Castle-Hughes win Best Actress. "Whale Rider" was great (everyone go watch it! ). Plus, she's 13 and I just want to see beat out the other actresses. But, I have a feeling Charlize Theron will win it.

Whale Rider was good. I'd be great if Keisha Castle-Hughes won the award.

I hope he wins though I doubt he will. He was in a kids movie, an exceltent one but it was for children.
It might have been geared towards children, but lots of adults I know love it. Well my parents don't but all my friends were saying how they got their parents the Pirates DVD for christmas. And yes, Rosie, he got it for Captain Jack.
I think RotK will win best pic, PJ will win best director, and Into the West will win best song. But that's just me

I hope the film 'Evil' wins the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film. Actually I haven't seen the film yet, but I'm planning to after I've finished reading the book which the film is based on. Everyone I've talked to who have seen the film say that it's great.
