i agree totally too! they won for visual effects, don't forget, so that makes four. as i said in the other oscar threads, the academy's preference for human interest films over other genres sometimes borders on bias, and they not making an exception with lotr is really surprising. abm is a good movie, but it is not exceptional, and ron howard's directing is good, but it's nowhere near peter jackson's excellent work. maybe some bloke should make noises about how the oscars are biased against non-human interest films, hmmm? that seemed to work for some other sentimental faves who won...<P>---------------------------------------------<BR><I>every man's life is a path to the truth -- hesse</I>
