I was thinking of an interesting problem this morning; how do you vote on three movies that are actually ONE movie chopped up into three parts and released over three years? <P>Since the film won for Cinematography this year, will people vote for it in the same catagory next year? If PJ didn't get the Best Director this time around, will people see something more in the next installment that would give him the nod in 2003. Was Elijah Wood or Sean Astin just "warming up" in the first film, and turn in such an incredible characterizations in the Two Towers that they could get a Best Actor nomination next year? <P>It just goes on and on...
