With no big-budget films like "Titanic," "Gladiator" or "Lord of the Rings: Return of the King" in this season's crop of nominees,

Why are they mentioning big budget movies from years past?
This paragraph should say with none of the big budget top grossing movies of 2005, like "Star Wars III," "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire," "Chronicles of Narnia," "War of the Worlds," and "King Kong" in this season's crop of nominees,

Bob Hope never won an Oscar, but was a giant in comedy and selflessness in going overseas and entertaining our troops year in and year out! When the entertainment industry failed to honor this man, I realized they were beyond their own pathetic world. Maybe Fox will show the Passion of the Christ!
