I don't know about. People have compared the Gibson film to something like 'Schindler's List' but seem to be forgetting that the latter really wasn't very violent...it was disturbing artful suggeston most of the time. I don't think a 2 hour gorefest would get a nomination regardless of who it was about.

I'd be surprised if Moore gets anything. As I've said before he is not a Hollywood elite but an outsider who they have found mildly amusing but are now surely sick of. You never see people like George Clooney or Steven Spielberg hanging around with him. We'll see on 1/25 when the nominations are announced.

If the Academy ignores the "Passion" then I'm ignoring them. For good.

Well, I just contend that it's the kind of "different" film that Hollywood usually goes ga-ga over. It's not gay cowboys eating pudding, but it should raise some artistic ears. The contenders this year are particularly lame.
