Man did he deserve that oscar for training day or what?! It's a fantastic movie!
That Halle Berry i don't trust tho, acting that emotional... I mean, if you are good enough an actor to win an oscar, you can sure as hell act well enought to fake that emotion... I just don't believe her... sorry :)

It reminded me of a scene from that film Don't Be A Menace To South Central While Drinking Your Juice In The Hood...

its so sad that the Academy won't acknowledge David Lynch as one of the best directors there is. I'm shocked he was even nominated.
and Mulholland Drive wasn't even nominated for best film???? go figure...

hey man, they even let Halle Berry win! I think it's not going at all well with the Academy.

Pant: is MD any good? I like nearly all Lynch's films, enjoyed (and understood as far as possible) Lost Highway, but have heard conflicting reports about MD... you think?

i've heard most people thought it was excelent...
...but anyway my view is that it is his best film, from those i've seen anyway. Its also the best film i've ever seen at the cinema. Its most similar to Lost Highway so if you like that you'll love Mulholland Drive.
Eraserhead is my second fave, if you like lynch you have to see this film...
you will never look at pencils the same way again : )

Halle Berry was amazing in Monster's Ball, don't discuss the issue unless you have seen the film. She didn't get the award for playing Storm in X-men you know...
Although I thought LoTR deserved best film, and Russel Crow best Actor, although I never saw training day or In The Bedroom so I can't really say.

Halle Berry and Jon Travolta lost a bit of my respect after seeing Swordfish, but then I realized how many laughs I got out of that film and am now grateful for it. The hill rollin scene was classic!

actually, the fact that david lynch was even nominated is pretty cool considering the academy generally doesn't care for movies like mulholland drive.
Ron Howard, just like Zemekis (spelling?) is the kind of director the Acedemy loves. Uncontraversial movies like Beautiful mind that make lots of cash are shoe ins to win oscars.
LOTR won't win best pic or best director untill the 3 one is out in 2 years.
and the other 3 movies were not nearly as commercially sucessful; and thats what the academy awards is all about;commercials.
i wish amelie and memento had won SOMETHING though. and Ben Kingsly for that matter.

Denzel is the man.......he shoulda won for malcolm X if you ask me =) Halle was AMAZING in monsters ball.....i wonder why billy bob didn't get nominated tho....he was equally as great in that film.....which i think shoulda been nominated for best movie.
LOTR didn't win, which surprised me, but after thinking about it i thought that the film didn't really have an ending, and i think the academy automatically pushed it aside thinking it was a trilogy so it can wait till the next movie. that bites but i think it may be the reality of it. peter jackson did some amazing directing in that film and i feel like he shoulda won SOMETHING!!
In the Bedroom is a great movie too....see it!

Lynch is a genius.....eraserhead is one of my all time fav's....which i would like to get on DVD someday!!
he's not a COMPANY man, so thats why he's always stepped over. remember the oscars are a BUSINESS.....sometimes it's not about the BEST ....but about what studio, how popular, etc....and that sucks!!
