Cate was great in portraying Galadriel. But her role was not 'human' enough. I mean her role did not have human emotions, she was a very 'holy' person/elf in the movie.<BR>And the movie concentrated more on the adventure of the story and it did not emphasize on her (cate blanchett) character's feelings, opinions, personality---you know, 'person' stuff. And I think the academy goes for those kinds of acting.i think they prefer the realism of the character. <P>I can't explain it(if anybody of you can't understand me). Its in the tip of my tongue... whatever... <P>Correct me if I'm wrong, but I haven't heard of an actor/actress nominated for their skill in acting in a 'fantasy' movie (i.e. Star Wars; LOTR; Dune; Harry Potter; Dungeons & Dragons).
