[My Favorite Headache]

The 3 facts to pay attention here that make the Academy Awards absolutely pointless:

1. No award has ever been given to Martin Scorsese
2. The Passion of The Christ received no awards and no major nominations.
3. Joaquin Phoenix did not win Best Actor and Walk The Line was not nominated for Best Picture.

Total B.S. on all levels.

Joaquin Phoenix was absolutely phenomenal in Walk the Line. It's a shame he didn't win Best Actor, but that wasn't surprising.

[I Drive Too Fast]

Joaquin Phoenix did not win Best Actor and Walk The Line was not nominated for Best Picture.

I watched it last night. He was good and the movie was great. I am glad Reese won for Actress.

Fact 4: The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly didn't recieve a single nomination for anything-even the haunting musical score by Ennio Morricone(that was the year I stopped watching).

Fact 5: john Wayne wasn't given an Oscar for either The High & The Mighty or Red River (or Stagecoach, for that matter).

Anyone have any more?
