I am not argueing with you..I am just stating that I find the nominations stupid....jesus.

Yeah, where's "Batman Begins"? 🙁

"Batman Begins" isn't Oscar material. It's a popcorn flick, and while it's a little more thorough and complex than most others of it's kind, it's still an action flick.

While I despise Academy Awards, it's really nice to see a shitload of Indies getting Oscar nods.

TRue, it isn't oscar material.

And Bardock, you wouldn't have made that comment, if you like almost everyone didn't suddenly realise I was a girl.

I am just still baffled.

And how is Batman NOT Oscar Material...well except if you mean that the Oscars are stupid and therefore they won't pick good movies.

[edit] Well maybe this year the competition is very strong..and I haven't seen most of the movies.

Too much Brokeback Mountain. 👇

Where is Doom? or Saw 2? And no War of the Worlds? Even worse they didn't nominated Deuce Bigalow Male Gigolo!

Bah! No wonder I don't pay attention to these award ceremonies.

I loved Doom droolio ...well that was kind of not Oscar Material though....really in this case.

LOL

true Crash was a good movie....now it jsut needs to win and I'm happy.

The Oscars are a joke. Two movies win all the awards. And there are no categories to represent the popcorn flicks.
