February 27, 200719 yr I watched most of it, but I had to study :(. However, I did make picks and got exactly 12/24->50%. Not bad 8-) . I will likely watch all the big winners when they come out on DVD. That's always fun.
February 27, 200719 yr I watched them for the first couple of awards, then I just got bored with it. And they drag it on and on. ^Sir Jem 05-The Bunny Drinking Blog?^ Click it!
February 27, 200719 yr Sources? Anyone can point fingers and scream "consperciy!!" at the top of their lungs. LOL, there's no smoke without fire... Untrue. I have seen smoke in the absence of fire on many occasions. My Solar Death Ray for instance. I get objects to smoke all the time, but very rarely get actual flame. You only have to type four extra keys for me to not think "ur" an idiot.solardeathray.teensupergenius.com
February 28, 200719 yr Sources? Anyone can point fingers and scream "consperciy!!" at the top of their lungs. LOL, there's no smoke without fire... Again, sources. Don't beat around the bush, just show me where you heard all of this. I cant provide sources (but hey its not my argument) but I do remember watching a program about the campaigning that goes into the Oscars. Studio's and distributers pay millions on their oscar campaigns (things like advertising, billboarding etc.) In the past studio's were allowed to give the Academy members(those who vote on who gets the prizes) gifts in the run up to the ceremony. Infact Sharon Stone bought expensive gifts the academy for the Golden Globes in 1995, I cant remember if she won though.(I know its not the Oscars but the point is similar.

March 1, 200719 yr It's all politics man.*coughdixiechickscough* <-I know that's a different awards show, but still. I really wanted to see Pan's Labyrinth, and it turned out a winner. I guessed about half right, I think. The code in my sig should say 1032 not 0132.
March 1, 200719 yr Yup, you can bet it's all politics. All you gotta do is follow the trends. Anyway, personal tastes aside about who should have won, etc (I actually had no favourites whatsoever this year), but the show in itself...gosh, it's so boring and uptight and packed with bad jokes and awkward moments. Every time I watch I'm like *cringe* for god sakes, you're actors, can't you do better than this? >_> "Metal isn't about violence or faggy whiny lyrics. It isn't even about who plays the heaviest and fastest. It is about invoking a sense of wonder and magnitude that no other genre can depict."

I guessed about half right, I think. Yeah, I was delighted that won.... well deserved. Definately my favourite foreign movie of last year. There's a lot of great foreign movies these days....
March 2, 200719 yr im glad that guy that was a film scorer got the honeree award he really deserved it and i hate awards shows now because their so political a study shows that 89% of all forum users have a sig like this. if you are one the 11% that think its dumb dont sell out and put this in your sig. 5/4 of all ppl have trouble with fractionsZOMBIES!I will buy ALL your rune full helms for 7Kea
March 2, 200719 yr There's a lot of great foreign movies these days.... Not only these days. There have always been great foreign films. Signature by Maurice SendakWhen the stars make you drool just like a pasta fazool, that's amore!
March 2, 200719 yr There's a lot of great foreign movies these days.... Not only these days. There have always been great foreign films. Its true there has always been a lot of great foreign films but now with the internet its far easier to hear about them so its given foreign films more visability than they had say 15 years ago. Nowadays your average teenager might have heard of Volver where as that wouldnt be the case in the past. It's undoubtedly a good thing.
