[jayblogger]

Nominee list came out today:

"Brokeback Mountain"

"Capote"

"Crash"

"Good Night, and Good Luck"

"Munich"

take your pick...

[jayblogger]

after a long deliberation... i'm voting for Brokeback Mountain

i'd really like to see Crash or Good Night, and Good Luck win, but i think the Academy voters are going to pull for Ang Lee and the Mountain all the way.

Crash

[M. Brown]

Munich.

[ZachariahDaMan]

Can't vote because I haven't seen any of those movies.

" Good Night, and Good Luck" is about the famous CBS broadcast journalist Edward R. Murrow. Edward R. Murrow was born in Greensboro and there is a major thoroughfare in downtown Greensboro named after him (Murrow Blvd). There is also a bust of him located on Murrow Blvd. He was like the Dan Rather of the times.

Munich.

I really hope John Williams wins for Best Score, for either Munich or Memoirs of a Geisha....

I second that motion! None of these flicks actually tickled my fancy anyway.....

[hood]

I haven't seen any of them and I really don't think I want to.

[torgo]

I've only heard of two of them. I've seen zero of them.

I voted for Munich, but it will probably go to Brokeback Mountain because of the content. Brokeback is not any different than most other films, except that it has popular actors playing gay roles. I'll be happy if Rachel Weiss wins best supporting actress.

Crash was a great movie, IMO.

The big night is 10 days away. Any viewing parties set up?

[Southernyank]

Crash. However, it was the only one I saw. Its obviously going to be "Brokeback Mountain though." Oh well, I dont really watch the Oscars anyway.

[Gusterfell]

I saw Brokeback Nountain, Crash, and Munich. All great movies, but I'd like Crash to win it.

[RestedTraveler]

Come on! Am I the only one that thinks Capote has a chance?

[jayblogger]

Come on! Am I the only one that thinks Capote has a chance?

I just saw Capote today, so now I've seen all 5.

IMHO it wasn't as good as the others. It dragged a little at the end. So did Brokeback and Munich, but it was worse with Capote because I knew how it was going to end. I thought Crash was great, but it didn't rise to the level of what was achieved with GN+GL and Brokeback. In any other year, I think GN+GL would win, but the Brokeback train is not going to stop.

RT: why do you think Capote hs a chance?

I saw Brokeback, and it was good, but I liked Crash better. I voted Brokeback though because I expect it to sweep this year. I could be wrong, but just have a feeling.
