Official Oscar thread

[Marileangorifurnimaluim]

Actually, my film buff fans do agree that as a movie 'A Beautiful Mind' was pretty mundane. But they loved 'Moulin Rouge' (which I turned off and never looked back after the guy starting singing "the hills are alive...").<P>I do think that it was a brilliant book adaptation. When I compare the few new lines the LotR script writers wrote "If you want him, come and claim him!" to the beautiful adaptation of our brilliant irreverent mathematition's perspective "there must be a mathematical equation for a tie that bad" - there's no comparison.<P>Best director though? PJ, hands down. But I'll wait and see at the next two oscars.
