What are the odds that Peter Jackson will be awarded a honorary Oscar for making the LOTR trilogy?
Very very very very good
I'm thinking he'll win for this year, just based on the whole trilogy together. Y'know... that popular theory that they've held off so they could honor him at the end of the third film. I hope this is true. He's made a bunch of masterpieces in the context of Hollywood big budget filmmaking, and he's done it with passion and pizzaz.
I'm sure that nice, fat $50 million dollar check is honorary award enough, AM I RIGHT?

but then anybody who makes a trilogy will want one of those awards. and what about those people that make sets of five movies? like harry potter?
Harry Potter... they had better stop at three or go 'till seven...
Maybe it will turn into a James Bond type thing where they run out of books then just start making shit up.
I don't think that he'll get a honorary Oscar, but he will certainly win the "Best Director"-award. They will honour him with this award for the making of the whole trilogy.

i dunno, even tho what he did is technically brilliant and a great innovative achievement, a "special honorary" award would be like a cop out and a consolation prize. plus it would be kind of like what the Wachowski Bros did around the same time, technically amazing as well.
it's such a great year that i don't care who gets recognised really, i'm disillusioned with the oscar thing so i wouldn't expect legitimate talent to win.. either way, Alejandro González Iñárritu will be there to kick all of ur asses.
