Get ready to celebrate the remaining show. BBM still 5 to go.

Best Picture, Best Director, Best Adapated Screenplay, Best Actor, Best Cinematography

At least 4 out of 5 for sure!
Sorry Heath...what a great future he (our best actor) will have though!

Ethan -- and Brokeback is a shoe in for at least three of those awards -- probably four.  I think it still has a chance of getting most awards of any movie this year.  That is saying a lot during a year where it looks like almost every movie is equally being honoured.

Dude, I agree best picture is the top award. Lets hope BBM gets it but if not, will you truly be worried.

The academy is composed of past winners. so older guys who have worked with past winners tend to win. Nepotism rules in Hollywood unfortunately (also here in the UK) None of it really matters . It's would just be so nice to see the film we love get some kind of recognition in the industry.

It's won best film nearly everywhere else. And it is definitely the film of choice for us here at eenisjack.com.

I totally agree with you--the awards are just the opinions of a few people. How many times have you read a bad review about a film, saw it, and loved it? The people who vote don't have any more culture or "better" opinions than we do. They are just lucky enough to be included in the vote for whatever reason. Anyone watching a film can have an opinion on it and all of those opinions are valid.

I'm happy for Robert Altman, pretty much deserved. 

So am I Cham.  It's about twenty years overdue.  The man is a wonderful director.   Great speech - no regrets he didn't win before.

Someone said that the song has to be played in its entirety for it to be nominated for "best song" and A Love that Will Never Grow Old was only played for a few seconds.

Oscar rules, a song has to be played in full/or almost during movie to be nominated.

Yup!  He never won any... he is one of the best American Director.  I'm glad he got that recognition.

I think "A Love That Will Never Grow Old" was not eligible because it wasn't on screen long enough.
