It's a shame it can't be like Hal Holbrook where it was a fantastic performance, too. <BR/><BR/>knm: no one has ever won both supporting and lead actress in the same year.

You can't sit through that without thinking, "This is a woman, playing a man". It's distracting. And as disturbing as Eastern Promises is, Viggo, with the accent and the way he's a bad guy with a heart. You can't beat that. If you're a Viggo lover and you haven't seen him in Hidalgo, I highly recommend it.Twisted Sisterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00830768610925196799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-87725965991420351362008-01-22T10:26:00.000-08:002008-01-22T10:26:00.000-08:00Angie's ex - LOL Sorry, I was thinking Billy Bob when I read Tommy Lee!

She really nailed that performance in every way, and the makeup nomination is totally warranted. It was a transformation.<BR/><BR/>Which ex of Angelina was nominated? She only has two, and I know it wasn't Jonny Lee Miller, right? Either I'm blind or I'm missing something.<BR/><BR/>It is sad how much excitement the Oscars bring me.

He's a good actor, but his performance is typical of his usual work. I am rooting for Johnny D. His performance was incredible. If not him, then Viggo. Gotta love Viggo. <BR/><BR/>And does anyone else feel that, although Cate Blanchett's performance as Bob Dylan was unusual, it was also a tad creepy?<BR/>That Marion Cotillard is gonna win anyway.<BR/><BR/>Oh, and I hope Casey Affleck wins.

She started her film career in the 1930s. I think her nomination is more about honouring her contribution to American Film, than anything else. I rather see a nomination (and even an award) go to someone like her, than some upstart we'll never or barely see again (eg. Jennifer Hudson, Mira Sorvino, hell even Marisa Tomei).Nicolahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07689731553947401224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-12583132679097253982008-01-22T09:48:00.000-08:002008-01-22T09:48:00.000-08:00Please let this be Johnny Depp's year.

It's ok, we only care about the movies not what they're nominated for. ;)<BR/><BR/>My #1 happiest happy that got a nominee is Tilda Swinton. She's amazing in everything, and she better win, dangit.<BR/><BR/>Second happiest nominee: Hal Holbrook. He was so heartbreaking in Into the Wild, I'm so happy.<BR/><BR/>Something I feel odd about: Ruby Dee is the only African American nominee in a performance category -- and I thought it was a bad performance in a boring movie. <BR/><BR/>something else I feel odd about: Cate Blanchett is a goddess, but Elizabeth: The Boring Age was horrible and she wasn't so hot in it either.DNfromMNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10417894386983890100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-18830961773309763722008-01-22T09:42:00.000-08:002008-01-22T09:42:00.000-08:00Hope Oscar steps up his game for the 80th Partay.

I think every one of them are amazing in their own way so I'll be happy no matter what.<BR/><BR/>Go, Ellen Page!<BR/><BR/>Quick story-Last year, an old lady was in my store and she mentioned that her granddaughter had written and directed her own film. I said something like 'that's great', thinking it was some sort of school project or something. Then she told me that her granddaughter was Sarah Polley, and the movie was 'Away From Her'. I am kind of teary-eyed for the success of the film, and feel happy for grandma who was clearly proud of her grandchild! Good luck, Sarah!Kathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15586243829246837212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-11999321726837743672008-01-22T09:27:00.000-08:002008-01-22T09:27:00.000-08:00That's cool ice angel, good luck to your friend!<BR/><BR/>Woo Hoo!
