Around SBN: Cal RB Jahvid Best Seriously Injured, Carted Off Field

SIS: Oscar Pool / Open Thread

I know we just had a big movie thread, but I thought there might be interest in the Academy Awards tonight. We can dish about the outfits, that dreamy Hugh Jackman, this year's movies and do a little gambling.

I started a pool at www.funofficepools.com. The site is a little clunky, but it's way better than some of the others I came across. After registering an account (free) click join pools

http://www.funofficepools.com/joinpool.php

Choose 'Oscars' from the drop menu. Pool Name Red Reporter Password Taveras. It would be helpful if you make your Selection name the same or similar to your RR screen name. The Deadline is 8pm tonight.

To make things interesting I'll send an envelop to the winner, but I can't legally promise that it will include Academy screener DVD copies of all the best picture nominees (I also can't promise that on request I will swap out The Reader or Benjamin Button for something better like The Wrestler).

My picks are in

I have no clue on Live Action short and crap like that. And Art Direction, Costume, Sound mixing are all kinda darts thrown at the board as well.

weighting categories

We have the option to weigh how many points each category is worth. It’s probably worth doing. I’m thinking 3 points for the big ones, 2 points for the others with movies people have seen or heard of, and 1 point for the shorts/docs/foreign films.

there you go

I usually only care about the big 6 and best animated feature, and sometimes Best Song.

I went ahead and did that

Picture, director, the 4 acting categories and the 2 screenplay categories are 3 points, doc/short doc/short animated/foreign are 1 point. Everything else is 2.

I'm a huge Bat-nerd

so I’m fine with Ledger getting his posthumous Oscar, but I think it’s pretty obvious who I think should win Best Supporting Actor.

Oh, and Mickey Rourke should win, too. He probably won’t though.

Wall-E had the degree of difficulty

Almost no dialogue the first, what, 30-40 minutes? Pretty impressive. I thought Kung Fu Panda was aight, better than anticipated. I think I’ve seen every animated movie the past 12 years except Ice Age…..somehow I’ve missed out on that one.

Although I must admit I wasn’t interested in seeing ANY of the nominated movies….ok maybe some interest in Frost/Nixon.

A co-worker of mine who saw all of the nominees sez The Wrestler was the best.

The old woman in front of me didn’t realize that “Pussy Juice” wasn’t part of the movie. She thought it was a real commercial.

Plus that movie made me laugh out loud quite a bit. I disagree with your lackluster assessment.

CONSPIRACY THEORY!

Did the Academy trot out this way of presenting the acting awards in case Heath Ledger won (which he did)? Traditionally, the previous year’s winner has presented to the opposite gender — last year’s Best Supporting Actor presents this year’s Best Supporting Actress, and so on — and if Heath were to win, clearly he’d be unable to present next year. Did they trot out this new format this year to lay some precedent in the case that they had to cover themselves next year?

Well, no, probably not. Something to think about, I guess.
