Bump!!!!

 

[Monkey Butler]

Ah crap, these are too hard - I never really pay attention to who's who in movies... I think last years oscars were pretty right (Lord of the Rings deserved all of those just for the achievement of making three huge movies!), although Bill Murray should've got the best actor.

 

[hiphophorray123]

diane lane was fkn sexy in unfaithful i liked that movie

 

[Trigger189]

I actually think most of them were spot on - from both years. The only ones I would change would be Best Supporting Actor 2002 (Tim Robbins) - I much prefered Benecia Del Toro in 21 Grams, he was amazing, although Tim Robbins was also great. I would also change Best Supporting Actress 2002 - anyone other than Renee Zellwegger - I normally like her, but she was just annoying in Cold Mountain.

Apart from that, I cant complain - oh, yeah also Meryl Streep shoulda won for Adaptation! She was sublime in that. But yeah, Catherine Zeta Jones was great in Chicago.

'02
Best Picture
The Pianist

'03
Best Actor in a Leading Role
Johnny Depp (Pirates Of the Carribean: The Curse of the Black Pearl)

Best Actor in a Supporting Role
Benicio Del Toro (21 Grams)

Thats all I would have changed.. Chicago was great but The Pianist was much so much better.

 

[Silverstone]

The only major thing i wished wouldve changed -

Was Shohreh Agdashloo won Supporting Actress, and Maria Bello got nominated instead of Renee.

In Cold Mountain, i preferred Kathy Baker and Natalie Portman to Renee.
