Well, the title of the thread is pretty self-explanatory.

What wins would you be upset over at this year's Academy Awards?

I think andaroo's answer here is pretty clear


As for myself, I really don't want Ray to win Best Picture/Director/Editing, I can name many movies that weren't even nominated and yet were better in these departments.

I want the entire cast and crew of Finding Neverland, except Depp and Winslett to be doused in KY jelly and slid down a small tube to the darkest depths of hell.

Actually, I REALLY don't want Super Size Me to win because I think it will mean that controversy won over actual artistic merit.

NOTE: I want Winslett doused in KY and escorted to my hotel suite.

I do not want Moreno, Swank, Staunton, or Benning to win Best Actress.

PEACE, Mike

I feel your pain, but you better have a drink on hand while you watch the Awards.

LMAO!!!!
Ditto on the Neverland bit.

A Neverland win would really REALLY push my last button!

If Catalino Sandino Moreno suddenly wins then I will go mad.

If Thomas Hayden Church wins Best Supporting Actor, I'll be pissed.

If Incredibles wins anything but Animated Feature, then I'll hit the roof

If Million Dollar Baby doesn't pick up at least 2 awards (and that's the inimum) the whole thing would have been a waste!

I don't want anyone else than Scorsese win Best Director
I don't want Super Size Me to win documentary
I don't want The Polar Express song to win
I don't want Shrek 2 to win animated

I'll be pissed if:

1. Finding Neverland wins any award
2. Morgan Freeman wins for Million Dollar Baby, because Clive Owen was soooooo much better than him.
3. Clint Eastwood wins best director, because Marty was sooooooo much better than him.
4. Hilary Swank wins best actress for her ho-hum performance.
5. Spiderman 2 wins for visual effects.

Maverikk won't like you

You're my hero!

PEACE, Mike

Hey, we can't all bow down to the Baby :wink: .

uh-oh...somebody wants Marty to win so badly [-o< , that they are trying to convince themselves that main competition was bad. :^o :-({|= :laugh:

Vera Drake, dont know why just don't want it.
sea inside taking makeup.
ray taking sound.
hp3 taking visual effects.

i'll also be upset if titanic takes best pic.... oh wait that already happened!

If Shrek 2 or that other movie won Animated Feature, I'll be even more upset than shocked.

the incredibles?
so you want shark tale to win?
lol
jk or am i

for the 2nd consecutive year it seems like people will be upset if something else gets animated feature!
(last year everyone i talk to said they be upset if anything but nemo wins)

although i wouldnt mine shrek 2 winning.

It was also the case two years ago, well, at least for me. If Spirited Away hadn't won, it would've ruined the rest of my night, considering it's the first award. Only the first year, when Shrek won over Monster Inc., there was a kind of split opinions.

well not really since i knew people who wanted ice age or lilo to win
(then again not that many people saw spirited)
but i can understand what your saying.

Marty needs to resort to Hollywood tripe to possibly finally get an Oscar. Tsk tsk tsk Marty [-X

If Winslet or Bening win Best Actress
If Eastwood or Depp win Best Actor
If M$B gets completely snubbed
If Natalie Portman DOESN'T win Best Supporting Actress
If Eternal Sunshine DOESN'T win Best Original Screenplay
If Hackford, Leigh, or Payne win Best Director

Finding Neverland winning pretty much anything except Best Costume Design.

Annette Bening winning Best Actress.

The Aviator winning Best Picture.

If Tupac gets best documentry
If Linney gets supporting.
If Owen gets supporting.
If Sharks gets animated feature.
If the Chorus gets song.
If Neverland and the Passion are ignored. (although neverland probably will be)
okay i'll admit it, i wont be that upset if neverland is ignored i just like to see it to win something.

Give another director the same material and you'd realize that few could match Scorsese's deftness and visual pinache. If the Aviator is tripe then I wish Hollywood would crank out more of it.

Truthfully, since I'm not getting part of the award, this is all just fun and games, and I could care less who wins. I wouldn't begrudge anybody that somehow found a gold statue in their hands.

Just for fun ,I don't want to see...

Anybody else winning best actress but Hillary
Marty winning any awards this year.
Anybody else winning best supporting actor but Freeman
Something other than Spider-Man for best FX
Clint being totally shut out after back to back years of brilliance that none of the other directors could accomplish in a lifetime. :rock:

I don't want Motorcycles Diaries, a movie celebrating the vile Che Guevera to win anything.

And I don't want Spider-Man 2 to get shut out of fx/sound etc awards, it may not be art but it was brilliant technically and deserves something.
