[OT] Lotr:FotR is now an Oscar winner

[Green Knight]

I may yet commit Boredomcide. Cirque du Soleil wasn't really THAT interesting. Anyway...

9 down, 4 to go.

Lord of the Rings just won for Original Score. W00T! W00T!

4 of 9, so far.

That'll teach me to get up and use the little orc's room.

 

[Sir Osis of Liver]

4 of 9 ain't bad, lets see if they bring home the big ones.

Why were only three films nominated for Sound Editing? I didn't get that at all. Only way Pearl Harbor could win a nomination, that's for sure.

This is working out pretty good for LOTR, so far. I was worried they'd get shut out. I just wish Sir Ian had won, but C'est la vie. A best picture nod would ease that, er, 'sting'.

 

[Nightfall]

I with everyone here, Sir Ian got shafted BIG time. I don't think Iris even PLAYED in West Virginia. (Not that I'm against Julia Dench. She's a fine actress.)

I still don't see LoTR winning the bigs ones except for maybe best adapted screenplay. At WE know it's a good close homage, and CERTAINLY deserves to win over "A Beatiful Mind". Let them have the Best Director. I'm sure Peter will be up for again with the Two Towers.

Ohhh...this is not fair...Everything is telling me to go for LotR in absolutely everything, but the Aussie in me is telling me to go for Moulin Rogue... Aren't they both up for Best Film or something?

I'm relying on you guys to keep us Aussies up to date over here. Cheers!

 

[Skywalker]

As a Kiwi all I can say is go LotR. However if LotRs doesn't get it, give it too Moulin Rouge or Russell Crowe. Go Australiasia

I see the New Zealand director of Shrek got his reward too

I think they're both up for Best Picture, but Baz L. was robbed - he should have had a Best Director nomination. Both films are fantastic!

I agree. Baz certainly should have been nominated. After watching the Moulin Rogue DVD I can really appreciate the effort he's put into it. Well I hope Mr Jackson walks away with a couple of Logies...sorry (Aussie joke there)...I mean Oscars for his efforts. He deserves them.

Yeah, she is good, but who's this Ben Stiller guy who won Best Supporting Actor, anyway...??
