Oscars for TPM

This Sunday, TPM is up for 3 Oscars. Sadly, all are boring tech stuff (visual effects, sound effects, and some other sound effects thing). Those Hollywood snobs passed up the film for best picture, and for its masterful performances . It might not even win those three because of competition from The Matrix, but I'm sure TPM will get at least one. Predictions? I think it's most likely to pick up the Visual Effects award... just look at the incredible scenes.

I hope that either Episode II or III will meet the critics' tastes enough to qualify for some real Oscars...

Real Oscars? There is nothing real about an Oscar. In fact, I can't think of anything more phoney than the Academy Awards! :P

Re: Oscars for TPM

I thought it was a bit suprising TPM didn´t get nominated for best costume.

Still, I don´t that care that much about Oscars and other forms of awards in the entertainment industry. I guess I just agree with anduin.

Re: Oscars for TPM

So far, The Matrix has beaten TPM in Sound Effects and Sound effects editing

The only one left is Visual Effects...

Re: Oscars for TPM

Well, Matrix was an awsome movie and really deserved the two sound related awards, but they didn't deserve visual effects. Sure, Matrix used a lot of visual effects and it turned out to be an amazing movie, but about 75% of Star Wars was completely CGI!(rough estimate) They deserved it much more than the Matrix did.
