Those are ads and nothing more. Reminding people to see your movie and possibly vote for you. Mel Gibson didn't do a single one and still got 3 noms for his film.
A very, very powerful movie.
Why? They are campaign ads. (I'm Warner Brothers and I approved this message). There is no official need to 'submit' to AMPAS for a nomination. Except in the categories I mentioned.
And Caleb Deschanel is one of the very best in the biz.
I've never heard of The Chorus or Being Julia either. I guess those movies are this year's pink snails (a free no-prize to anyone who can figure out the movie I'm referring to, and why).
He photographed The Right Stuff and The Black Stallion. The latter being regarded as one of the pinnacles of The cinematagrapher's art. He's never won before. I wouldn't be surprised if he does here. Though truth be told, The Aviator had a much more ambitious color palette.
Yob tvoyu maht, Mr. Moore!

I have met many of the Hollywood elite, I lived in Hollywood, and I am not impressed with them, their "talent" or much of anything they make.
I am not impressed with much of anything to do with most of them.
Some are great- most are mediocre.
The awards they give themselves is silly to me. I appreciate good art very much, but most of what Hollywood makes is not art, IMO.
soon he will be squealing like the pig he is.
Well I was reffering to degrees to counter the 'half a brain' part. And most of anything isn't good...books, music, painting. It's the good stuff that makes the rest worth tolerating. Regards.
Well his film got 3 nominations when most people thought it wouldn't have any. And he has previously won big for Braveheart. I'd say he's doing just fine in the Oscar category.
The cinematography of The Passion is astounding. The whole thing feels like a Caravaggio painting.
What I love about DVD is that one can hold scenes, create stills... TPOTC provides some of the best. Ever.
The musical score that John Debney did for The Passion is nothing short of amazing.
Very true. I play it often. Love it. And Debney's story behind it is wild.
The makeup for The Passion was absolutely vital to it. Making Christ look like a bloody pulp couldn't be easy to do.
Without question. One never thinks "makeup!". Never.
I can't help but wonder if this is the Academy's way of giving Gibson recognition of just how powerfully compelling that movie was (and just how much talent it demonstrates), but they don't want to be too overt because its so politically incorrect.
I completely agree. I am SHOCKED at these nominations. They just could not completely ignore it. It's not a lot, but it is more than I expected.
I've been pointing out for months now that Moore is not a member of the Hollywood crowd...he's an oustider who they are undoubteldly sick of. I've seen other films of his and politics aside his crude amatuerish films are an insult to the art of non-fiction filmmaking. And it is an art (Eroll Morris, Chris Marker).
-------------------------------------------
Unoriginal? Please name three films prior to it that it copied...or just two.
I did notice that the amount of laughter in the theater was divided into two groups, those who had read (as in studied and know) Shakespeare and those who had not. I'd quess that at least 25% of the humor went right over the heads of everybody in the latter group.
Also remember that these are craftsmen nominating other craftsmen. No actors or producers voted for the nominations that the Passion got.
Two of the grand old men of literary criticism: Harold Bloom and I.H. Abrahms liked it as well. So did Lynn Cheney (who, as everyone knows, has a PHD in Engligh Literature).
No actors or producers voted for the nominations that the Passion got.
True.
And that Maia Morgenstern didn't get nominated is a travesty.
