Minority Report should have gotten it. PDL is of excellence, but excellence in minor categories relating mainly to sound and music. I thought much of the movie was the simple editing in a Tati film that holds the camera at certain points in order to give room for the actors to work.

I wonder what the outcome may have been with PDL off the choice of nominees. The winner list reeks of boredom and fanboy smut.

Don't blame me, I nominated "Changing Lanes".

All I know is, if "Gangs of New York" had won best editing, I would have spray-painted the walls with my brains.  Rarely have a seen a major studio film as ineptly cut as "Gangs".

Minority Report...had my vote....

I can't believe PDL would even be nominated for this....although those real tricky disolves into JB's artwork must have taken them all of 15 min. to do.....fanboys is a good term here....I loved PDL, but made sure to give credit where it was due...

Edit- I can't spell.
