I will also concede that many of the stars listed had nothing to do with their films' respective box-office grosses. Agreed. I don't know of anyone who went to see Ghost Rider to watch Cage's performances. Well, for that matter, I don't know of anyone who see to see Ghost Rider at all. :) Haha, Aka...

I'm glad to see this list, mostly because I was pushing for a Deakins double-nom. But I can certainly see Sweeney popping into one of the two spots.

I'm with Zahveed on the Jesse James pride.

My predictions: The Golden Age, Hairspray, and Sweeney Todd.

I can see Todd taking this, but Elizabeth taking Costume as consellation.

Majora's Mask was not really designed to be more than an add-on to OoT. It used the same character animation and Game Cube engine. They really meant it to be more of a puzzle game than an adventure game. I totally agree, OG, completely. And that's why I like Majora's Mask so much; however, it is no...

See, I liked it more so than not, and honestly, it is such an odd performance that I can see him both being completely overlooked and, dare I say it, winning. Some of you may scoff at such a thought, but I honestly, despite Day-Lewis and Clooney raves, can see Depp taking the prize with this one, d...

The Mummy 3 ... alright, that's terrible enough. But come on... Fast and the Furious 4 ? Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2 ? Seriously. Even Shrek Goes Fourth is really reaching for me. Now, I liked I, Robot , but can someone explain how there's a sequel? Are they going down the entire series, or...

See, just as a test, I went into the film having not seen or heard a single tune from any of the stage productions of Sweeney . With that in mind, I entered the film with a completely blank slate. And I have to say, I liked it (which makes me think Akash won't like it, because I don't think there's...

It's funny how many people I've spoken with who hate it, without realizing that its meant to be a homage to the genre.

Ed Wood. No reservations. Though I really admire Big Fish.

'Charlie Wilson's War' is not very good but Philip Seymour Hoffman is absolutely getting in. I can't see it not happening. He could very easily end up canceling himself out for lead but his 'Charlie Wilson's War' role is absurd Oscar bait. So I've heard. My ideal roster was always Bardem, Dano, Hol...
