13 Nominations to Rule Them All

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the now-isn't-that-special dept.

PatSmarty was among the onslaught of people who noted that the Oscar Nominations have been announced and that FotR has 13 of them. Beautiful Mind and Moulin Rouge also in there too.

    On one hand, I really want FOTR to do well, but on the other, I'm afraid that the success of FOTR will change the editing/special effects process of TT and ROTK...

    Still, it's a wonderful day indeed when *anything* by Tokein is nominated for an Academy Award.

      It will be just idiotic if Ian McKellan doesn't win the best supporting actor award.

      Of course, I think he had enough screen time to qualify for best actor, but they'd never nominate an elderly British actor that most people have never heard of. Have to think of the ratings.
