Even though i was tempted to preserve Judi Dench, i won't do something to change FilmFan's choices

Group One
Anjelina Jolie (Playing by Heart) replaces Kathy Bates
Group Two
Preserve The Thin Red Line's cinematography. At the beginning of the round I thought this was perhaps the safest individual achievement - but nope, and I'm preserving it before it's too late.
Group Three
Blade replaces Elizabeth in makeup

Let's at least try to preserve The Thin Red Line in Cinematography, guys, because at this rate...
I know. We failed. There are so many other movies I want to put in (basically just 'Rushmore') that I've forgotten to protect the flag. 'The Thin Red Line' is the most gloriously atypical aberration in the Academy's history this side of 'Munich' and we're going to see it go...sad.
"How's the despair?"
That and Original Score are the only two categories where it deserves preservation.The Original BJ wrote:Let's at least try to preserve The Thin Red Line in Cinematography, guys, because at this rate... :p
