 Just saw an FYC ad for Best Director - McG! What? Warner actually thinks the director of Charlie's Angels has any chance of a nomination? The day he gets a nom he will be competing against Brett Ratner and Michael Bay.

Well, Michael Bay already deserved some nominations, IMO.

Its a good action film. Over the top but not totally mindless. Give it a go - you may be pleasantly surprised. I'd still rank The Island as the better film but The Rock is enjoyable. And Connery certainly doesnt hurt it either.
As for McG - stranger things have happened. Even though I want to see Marshall, I serously doubt it will be up for any major awards.

Michael Bay should have won Best Director for Bad Boys II. When they called his name up he'd have rode through the audience in an H2 Hummer before blowing up the stage.

Fuck Bay/Bruckheimer. They are pretentious as, say, Anthony Minghella, but wouldn't admit it. Why make a "dumb action movie" 2.5 hours long?

I'm sure, at this point, it's just political courtesy. I highly doubt WB expects a sappy football drama (or it's three-letter-name director) to be an award heavyweight.
