The fact that the trailers look good does not mean one should get best director. There is no “Best Director of Trailers” category in the awards.<BR>If you base your best director award on reports of the movie then you are awarding it based on other peoples opinion of his work, not your own. Hardly the correct thing to do.<BR>The fact that he has poured his heart and soul into the film does not mean he should win the best director nod. The best director award should go to the best director. The degree of effort he put in or how much the project meant to him means nothing in terms of the award. If it did then Ed Wood would have won a best director award.<BR>The only way that Peter Jackson deserves to win the best director award for 2003 is if he is just that. The best director of 2003.<BR>Any other reason would be no more than a fudge.
