Eastwood gets nothing yet Scorsese is picked to WIN.....this is what I mean about those Hollywood types. Oh come ON. Eastwood has what, 2 Best Director Oscars, plus 2 other Oscars for UNFORGIVEN and MILLION DOLLAR BABY. Give just one...just one measly little Oscar....to Marty. I like Martin. But the amount of Oscars that one person has won should have absolutely no bearing on nominating them again if the work that they did that year warrants it. It's like telling a Baseball player who won the triple crown last year that he cannot win it again this year even if he leads the league in all the required categories. Don Cardi I agree but I wanna see Marty win so badly that I don't care. Screw Clint and everyone else. LET'S GO MARTY!

So Marty should win it even though his film doesn't truly warrant it, isn't that why they have Lifetime achievement awards?
I think the real reviewers vote with their brains rather than their hearts. He was screwed twice before for Raging Bull and Goodfellas. So why can't he screw someone this time around?

Those are your opinions, I found Flags of our Fathers to be much more entertaining than the Departed. ...and that's your opinion. Fair enough. Marty to win...woo hoo!
Hey, how's it going?

You are right the Oscars are about as close to a real award show as this thread is to a real reviewer  If you truly cared about movies you'd want the best person to win at all times, it didn't happen for him for those 2 movies but that doesn't mean someone else should get screwed, thats what they have lifetime achievement awards for. And it is my opinion Don Andrew, thank you for pointing that out, hence why I put "I found" Well, I'm glad DaMoraleCommissioner is here to compete in a dick-size contest with me. Besides, there is a mortal flaw in your argument. If not Marty for Best Director, who should deserve to win it more than him? Surely you haven't seen LETTERS FROM IWO JIMA (worth watching) and I don't see you as the sort of guy to champion BABEL or even LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE. To be honest, Paul Greengrass is the most deserving of the nominees, but since his movie didn't get a Best Picture nomination, he never could win. So quit your morale dance. Besides, this is a fun little thread for the movie buff fans at BB.Net.
