Nothing even compares, unfortunately. Did you not like Grizzly Man because I saw that you put it below March on your ballot. I didn't see it. I nominated it because I think it deserved it, based on other people's comments.

Best line up there could possibly be. This is great, and I wouldn't change a single one of them. This category is dead on.

I'll never see Enron, since you recommended it.

Good noms, but too bad not many people caught Wild Parrots or This Divided State.
I voted for The Aristocrats, too.
I figured the Grizzly Man fan club would have no trouble getting that one in.

My nominations for Best Score:
1. Munich
2. P&P
3. Memoirs
4. Revenge of the Sith
5. Gromit
I put Gromit in place of New World for.... a reason that is escaping me....
Either way, Gromit had a fun, fun score so it's alright.

I didn't really like W&G, but the score was really good, as you said, it was a "fun score".

Will do as soon as I get my paycheck.
Actually, Downfall is on sale, too. Perfect then.  Yay.
Oh, and if you've heard anything of De Aanslag, that Dutch movie I'm trying to find, let me know. I'm going to harass you and everyone else till I can find out if it was worth my attention. Best book ever + Oscar win makes me curious.
Back to the awards...

Good lord, are we really going to have to wait an entire page every time for a category?
Yeah yeah, BPM. I know you think I'm slow, and that I should just leave already.
Shit, I spoke too soon.

Being a homophobe is not a sign of insanity.
It's the other way around.
