Can't wait for the debate early in '05 about whether F911 will be eligible for, and will be nominated for, and will WIN, for "Best Documentary" Oscar.

(Of course, it will be "yes" to all three, even though it plainly shouldn't be eligible. I still wonder whether the Academy will realize one day how snowed they were by "Columbine.")

What's more, this year the Academy has changed the rules so that you cannot do any negative campaigning against the Oscar nominees (say slamming "LOTR" in favor of "Cold Mountain" because it is a more "serious" film).

The documentary filmmakers are going to be denied the ability to speak out against a film that should not even be in the competition as it is a fraudulent work.
