Best Picture- Lord of the Rings: Return of the King
Best Director- the director from City of God
Best Actor- Sean Penn or Johnny Depp
Best Actress- Charlize Theron
Best Supporting Actor- Tim Robbins
Best Supporting Actress- The Mom from 13, lol

LOTR got best movie for sure. I wish Ben Kingsley would win best actor for The House of Sand & Fog, which was a great movie BTW. Sean Penn and Johnny Depp will most likely be the ones to win and I got no problem with that either.

Come on man.  Show some intelligence.  Just because he did a great job in those movies doesn't mean he should have gotten best actor.  Shit, How could he get best actor for Fight Club, when Brad Pitt was in it, and did a better job on his own shit???  You've gotta understand, there are a ton of great actors out there, and depending on what year a movie is released, there's a lot of strong competition.

what movie was johnny depp in last year that he would win an oscar for?  only movie I can think of that he was in last year was pirates of the caribbean.  don't get me wrong, I think depp is one of the best actors, but I don't think he should win an oscar for POTC.

He was damn good in Pirates though. I remember watching the movie thinking the dude at least deserves a nomination for it, but I wasn't expecting it to actually happen. He shouldn't win for that movie though.

No doubt he was good, but he shoulda won oscars for his performances in blow, fear and loathing, or donnie brasco.  I think he may have won one for blow tho, not sure don't follow that award bullshit.

The movie that always gets overlooked is Ed Wood

Like I said, it doesn't just come down to "Oh, he was good, give him an oscar"!  Johnny Depp has been excellent in EVERY movie he's been in, from Gilbert Grape on up, but it depends on the competition that year.  No, he's never won an oscar.  He WILL though, that's the point.  Eventually, he will win one, and people will always respect him for his great career, whether he wins one or not.

i agree ^ depp will most likely get a couple sometime in his life (he's still young)


remember Deniro (who's regarded as one of the best actors, if not thee best, has only won 2)

Dam Lord of the rings stole the show.  I love my movies but I still aint seen 2 and 3 yet. lol.....I guess its because the first 1 really didnt appeal to me, oh well I will have to rent em or sum shit.

I thought the show was dope tho.  I stayed up till 5.30am to watch it all and I am glad I did.  Billy Crystal was great, funny as a mofo and all the artists who won deserved it.  I also enjoyed the way for us UK peeps it cut back to Johnathan Ross, Allistar Mcgowen and others when there was a short break in the actual show, made it much more entertaining from my point of view.

Thats the first time I have ever actually watched an oscars and I will probably now have to stay up late and watch it again next year.  It was wierd cos when I was watching it and watching all of them amazing peoples recieve there oscars I was like dammm I gotta get me one of those, I dunno, it was strange for me but I was kinda thinking maybe thats sumit for me to work towards in life.  

I thought the speech from that blonde girl was great who played a prostitute in Monster or something.  Good emotional and deep speech, I liked it.  

ah well, it was a dope show.

ya.. he prolly didnt get it cause it's plain insane if you get an relevant oscar for you first movie.
as the oscars are all political and fight club + american history x are pretty harsh movies, he didnt get it there either.
then I thought he might get one for the 25th hour at last... he didnt again, a homie thinks the academy doesnt like spike lee and that might be a reason

well to put it in a nutshell I just think it's sick Norton never got an Oscar - but I dont want to have trouble wit that opinion here any more :D

I thought the speech from that blonde girl was great who played a prostitute in Monster or something.  

She's like an angel walking the earth.   She seemed sincere, she was beautiful, strong, graceful, elegant, intelligent, courteous, well-spoken, any adjective you can think of to describe a woman.

You must be a foriegner, your taste isn't worth shit.  You don't understand what you're talking about, it's as simple as that.  You don't see how a movie like Jerry Mcguire is superior to Primal Fear, and you don't see how the acting in Jerry Mcguire was more important and greater than the acting in Primal Fear.

Trauma shut the fuck up you dumb piece of shit.  Their is this thing called opinion.  how can he not know what he is talking about when he thinks primal fear is a better movie than jerry mcguire?  Guess he hasn't taken film judging 404 like you, huh?  Maybe he is not experienced enough in watching movies, right?  Can you pleeze give me some tips on how to rate a movie?  I would luv to be the expert you are on judging films, cause God knows everything you think has to be correct.

actually trauma is 100% right

primal fear is to "knock around boys" as  Jerry Mcguire is to "goodfellas


it was aiight-ness compared to greatness

lmao you funny, expressing that Im a "foreigner" (<- lol btw, yall americans are foreigners, besides this board is hosted by an European dude... lol Trauma you so caught :D )  when you (if youre not dumber than I assume) already know that Im German. Nice try. Pretending you could judge that by reading my opinon on Ed Norton LoL. Better luck next time.
Plus, your arguments almost made me turning off my computer.

^The fuck where you thinking while typin that plain nonsense? lol... I guess Im pretty good when it comes to movies and I am no Ed Norton dickryder, he just does things in movies noone else seems to be able to do. He isnt just normal acting, like pronouncing his text quite well LoL, he also can play a retard ( the score ), hit himself etc... not to talk about what he accomplished in Primal Fear (question: do you know the movie?) which was his debut (!) .. lmao fuck wit dat!

You just embarrassed that the American Oscars are all political, that's your problem. You America-Dickryder :D - so you try to justify the Oscar acedemy in order not to get humiliated cause it's proven your country sucks.

-He didnt get for Primal Fear cause it was he debut
-He didnt get for American History X cause there were Nazis in the movie
-He didnt get for Fight Club cause it was too gross
-He didnt get for the 25th Hour cause the film was made by a sassy nigger.

and I said I dont want to argue bout that anymore, so blame yourself. you forced it. now walk the walk and deal wit it.
