LoTR coronation and other moments

[bipolarbear]

Crap(LOTR) asdie, I liked the whole thing at the beginning. Eventhough it did involve crap(lotr) and even though i am a michael moore fan, i like the thing where he is crushed. that was funny.

Well I'm pleased for PJ. I've loved all his films and it was nice for him to mention Meet the Feebles and Bad Taste, both of which I saw when they came out.

As for LOTR - I don't think it will become clear until the extended cut of ROTK is released, but he has made a wonderful job of the series. I believed that LOTR was unfilmable, and while, as a Tolkien nut, there are some things I don't like about the movies, I think that PJ did a stellar job.

The best thing is that this put the Australians firmly in their place. 11 awards - equalling the record - take that you sheep shaggers.

The coronation of the LOTM is one more proof that the oscars have went hilariously but also sadly downhill... One of the most boring movies getting oscars.
As I grow older Berlin and Cannes sound more and more exciting.

Um, you do realize the cateogry is called "Best Picture," right? And if it's better than any of it's competitors, ergo it should be Best Picture?

Oh vey...

The designers were largely making crap up out of their heads! The people in Last Samurai and the other nominated movies had to do in depth researh to replicate the costumes from their movies. It is marvelous to be creative, but there is more work involved in recreating something down to an exact detail.

So, copying styles out of books is more of a creative acheivement than having to create the costumes and sets and such completely from imagination?

That's a bizarre point of view.

Yeah, but there comes a point when the awards would realistically have to be abandoned. For example, if the only films produced that year were "Debbie Does Dallas" and "The Anal Sisters".

Anyway, I notice no Aussies are around to gloat at.

And don't criticize me for wanting to gloat at the sheep shaggers - it's our national sport (and there have been precious few opportunities lately).

Diane Lane and Holly Hunter looked REALLY HOT!

Charlize Theron and Sandra Bullock looked like they fell asleep in the tanning bed.

Robin Williams was hilarious

Is it possible for Diane Lane to not look hot?

well, she could have been overly tan like Charlize "I'm kinda hot but not a great actress" Theron and Sandra "Speed was teh pinnacle of my career" Bullock.

I'm sorry, but I'd **** the **** out of Diane Lane, overly tan or not. She's a fox...

She is like Salma and Zeta Jones in that respect.

While it is extremely rare, GePap and I do agree on occasion. This is one of those rare occurences...

Salma's unibrow in Frita or Frida or whatever didn't really do it for me.
