I'm hearing that movies like Cold Mountain, Last Samurai, and Mystic River are all really really good, which makes me nervous for LotR. I know it can't possibly win them all (though that would be unbelievably cool) but I really hope that the Academy decide to get over their fear of praising fantasy-based movies and blockbusters. there's a reason a blockbuster is a blockbuster, cause it's good!
my friends and I think it'd be really cool if they gave LotR an Oscar for the 3 movies as a whole, as one complete story. but that ain't likely to happen.
