One for the good guys.
This is great news! How do they know before the show is aired?
Oh ... we have sources. We are friends with a Hollywood reporter. Mel was told on Friday.
The question is, can this help put pressure on Hollywood to consider The Passion for an Oscar?
Hollywood could care less what the people want. They have an agenda and pleasing the people is not a part of it. Witness the fact that they keep producing dreck for hundreds of millions of dollars while small 2 and 3 million dollar movies keep sweeping the nation.
Sad but true. tope grossing pics this year have been The Passion and children's movies.
I would hope it would put pressure on the Hollywood idiots. I know that'' The passion'' made tons more money then Farrenhite did.But I know that the academy is made up, of so many liberals that have this '' thing'' against President Bush and would love to give Moore the oscar just to make a stupid statement.I'm a SAG member and I'm going to do some research into this matter.
To my mind, F9/11 does not deserve to be in the best pic category. Not because of disagreements over the content, but because it isn't a movie. It is a film. The Best Pic is for the Best Movie. Best Doc is for the best film. At least that is how I see it. I think The Aviator should win best movie. And Leo is truly deserving of best actor.
F-911 should win The Joseph Goebbels Award for best piece of propaganda.
Just won it. Great going, Mel.
He got a genuine standing O. Not like that lame standing O tons-o-fun Moore got.
I missed all the fun for the "esteemed" michael moore. Must of really been something.
