The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King has swept the Oscars, winning all 11 categories in which it was nominated, including Best Picture (the first time a fantasy film has won) and Best Director (for Peter Jackson). It beats the previous sweeps record-holder, Gigi (9 wins in 9 categories), and ties Titanic and Ben Hur for the most Oscar wins.

Bet that won't make any headlines though
No one caught the Jack Valenti jokes about downloading movies
Thought that would be the topic of discussion when I logged on...but guess not many bothered to watch
Someone should use that as a defense in court - Jack gets paid well for those kind of punchlines

Didn't watch it. When they announced that they're not going to limit the time of acceptance speeches, I thought "great ......just what I want to hear - a bunch of political comments." No thanks :P

Don't watch the oscars for the same reason I don't go down to the local bowls club for their awards night. It's just people getting awards and thanking people, what's the point in watching it?
Exactly my sentiments.Yep, just shows what a sham the oscars are.

You mean you think getting millions of dollars a year is enough? You don't think they should also be pat on the back every 6 weeks by each other, and be allowed to hurt their backs taking bows???

Since we the movie-going public don't vote on them, I don't give a shit about them.

Once again pointing out that the Oscars are crap and the voters are sheep who vote for whatever movie gets the most press (I predict Passion of the Christ, another stupid ass movie, will win next year).Originally Posted by MJPollard

They're kidding, right? Wasn't this film the one with Ben and J-Lo? If I remember, it had a run life of about 5 days in my area... they couldn't GIVE tickets away for that flick...It beats the previous sweeps record-holder, Gigi (9 wins in 9 categories),
