perhaps the fact that that it was $hit is holding it back, just a thought.

You're obviously not a star wars fan. episode III is the closing chapter in the most successfull movie franchise in history. the fact that Lucas refused to bow to holywood in the 70's, when after many of his films had been snubed,Star Wars became a Hit never before ar since parralleled. He set up his lucasfilm outfit in SanFrancisco and refused to pay union dues etc. to the hollywood moguls.Its Politics I tell you Politics

Disappointed to see Howl's Moving Castle being overlooked for a joly ol' Brit movie, but other than that few surprises. Thank God people have recognised Philip Seymour Hoffman for the genius that he is (Love Liza still ranks as his best performance in my eyes), and after the build up Crash has being getting all week I wasn't at all surprised to see it beat out Brokeback for best film, although personally Brokeback would have been my choice

I don't take much notice of the Oscars anymore. I wonder what the breakdown of movie studios is... Any chance that winners just distributed amoung the studios like the Grammys is for music...

**Babysis** · 09/03/2006, 9:36 AM

The winner of Best live action short film, SIX SHOOTER by Martin McDonagh was on TV last night. Although its a disturbing story I really enjoyed it

**max power** · 10/03/2006, 8:41 AM

Ah damn missed that, really like brendan gleeson too

Pretty much every award won by an indie this year. Grammys are voited by committee, oscars voted for by everyone in the academy (anyone who's been nominated)
