I'm always way off on my predictions.  Oh well.  I'm happy to see LOTR and Lost In Translation up for a bunch, and I think it's cool to see City of God up for Directing and Screenplay (BUT NO BEST FOREIGN FILM NOMINATIONI?!).  And look at all the more "indie" nominations (especially in acting categories)!  I can't complain about that.

Pubrick

only 2 things can be said..

1. GREAT, BEST IN YEARS (ESP. ACTING/WRITING/DOCUM.)

2. EXCEPT THE MASTER AND COMMANDER/SEABISCUIT LOVE
under the paving stones.

Thanks for the info, Mac.  Looks great.  21 Grams got snubbed, though, which is gonna piss off many people here, I know (well, except for Del Toro and Watts, but no writing, directing, or editing nods is shocking).  I haven't even heard of four of the foreign language films, which is a real shocker considering how many of them I've seen this year.  Lilja 4-ever seems like something the Academy would eat up with a spoon.  But I am happy for the props In America, Whale Rider, and Lost in Translation are getting.  I'm so happy Djimon Hounsou and Keisha Castle-Hughes got nominated, and I'll be pulling for them and for Lost in Translation in all categories.  But I question some of these choices, though I still need to see a lot of movies to make a final judgment.

It was eligible for that catagory last year and was overlooked. Which is why it's getting recognized for other catagories this year.

RegularKarate

Agree with P that it's the best in a long time (ie fewest disses and smaller amount of absolute shit in a while)

Best Pic:
Want:Lost in Translation
Will: Master and Comander or possible LOTR

Lead Dude:
Want/NEED: Bill
Will probably win: Sean Penn

Lead Lady:
Want: Naomi
Will: Charlize

Best Burn: Visual Effects: Pirates was nominated, but not the Matrix

It's been a couple of days since I've been here, but what's the word on Technical Oscars?

Edit: Nevermind.

SoNowThen

minus the City Of God and American Splendor noms (which won't win anything anyway), another shit year. I hate the Oscars.
Those who say that the totalitarian state of the Soviet Union was not "real" Marxism also cannot admit that one simple feature of Marxism makes totalitarianism necessary:  the rejection of civil society. Since civil society is the sphere of private activity, its abolition and replacement by political society means that nothing private remains. That is already the essence of totalitarianism; and the moralistic practice of the trendy Left, which regards everything as political and sometimes reveals its hostility to free speech, does nothing to contradict this implication.

When those who hated capital and consumption (and Jews) in the 20th century murdered some hundred million people, and the poster children for the struggle against international capitalism and America are now fanatical Islamic terrorists, this puts recent enthusiasts in an awkward position. Most of them are too dense and shameless to appreciate it, and far too many are taken in by the moralistic and paternalistic rhetoric of the Left.

Dianne Keaton and no Scarlet?

Not bad really. Love the direction catergory. Hope to see this peformed on the night: "A Kiss at the End of the Rainbow" - A MIGHTY WIND.

Wants are Bill Murray, another top award for LiT, and P.J for direction.

Actually, the studio was pushing her for Best Supporting Actress:

Hmm. I really don't the film that way. They both support each other.
