[Skywalker]

Ron Howard got best director for its a Beautiful Mind

 

[Nightfall]

Come people! I know we are upset but PLEASE tell me what happened! Who won for best picture and best director?

 

[Sir Osis of Liver]

At least that Mazes & Monsters guy was on the Acadamy Awards. Again.

 

[Barendd Nobeard]

Come people! I know we are upset but PLEASE tell me what happened! Who won for best picture and best director?

"A Beautiful Mind" got Best Picture and Best Director.

Be realistic guys. No matter how good a fantasy movie is (even if its the best movie of the year like LOTR truly was) it'll never get an academy award for best picture. Thats the way the fireball bounces.

 

[Zhure]

Well, that cinches it. I'm boycotting the Oscars until this clears up, and I won't be attending.

Best Picture- A Beautiful Mind
Best Director- Ron Howard

I said it before, allow me to repeat:
"The Oscars are broken and LOTR got the shaft."

 

[Phoenix8008]

Keeping my fingers and toes crossed for LotR to pull off the Best Picture big win!! Please! Please! Please!

At least we have the advantage of knowing that we will be in the running for some of this stuff again for the next two years.
