Walk the Line didn't get nominated for Best Picture. That's surprising, but awesome for Crash. I still have a hard time deciding if that or Brokeback Mountain was my favorite movie from last year. BBM is sure to win Best Picture now though, and hopefully some other awards.


1. Best Picture:
"Brokeback Mountain"
"Capote"
"Crash"
"Good Night, and Good Luck"
"Munich"

2. Actor:
Philip Seymour Hoffman, "Capote";
Terrence Howard, "Hustle & Flow";
Heath Ledger, "Brokeback Mountain";
Joaquin Phoenix, "Walk the Line";
David Strathairn, "Good Night, and Good Luck"

3. Actress:
Judi Dench, "Mrs. Henderson Presents";
Felicity Huffman, "Transamerica";
Keira Knightley, "Pride & Prejudice";
Charlize Theron, "North Country";
Reese Witherspoon, "Walk the Line."

4. Supporting Actor:
George Clooney, "Syriana";
Matt Dillon, "Crash";
Paul Giamatti, "Cinderella Man";
Jake Gyllenhaal, "Brokeback Mountain";
William Hurt, "A History of Violence."

5. Supporting Actress:
Amy Adams, "Junebug";
Catherine Keener, "Capote";
Frances McDormand, "North Country";
Rachel Weisz, "The Constant Gardener";
Michelle Williams, "Brokeback Mountain."

6. Director:
Ang Lee, "Brokeback Mountain";
Bennett Miller, "Capote";
Paul Haggis, "Crash";
George Clooney, "Good Night, and Good Luck.";
Steven Spielberg, "Munich."


Those are the important ones. The rest of the nominees are here.

I really, really, really want Jake to get Best Supporting. I thought he was by far the stronger of the two actors and he deserves some credit. And he's a tall dish of hot, besides. ;)

I'm pretty bummed Walk the Line didn't get nominated, too. Now I have more movies to watch before the Oscars take place!

Jakey G is totally getting underrated for his performance. I thought he did a great job! Though, if I was betting, I'd say Clooney or Giamatti are getting the award.

Yeah, I really want to see it. I like Joaquin Phoenix a lot, so I know I'll like it.

I heard this morning on NPR that BBM may not do all that great because they didn't get a nom from the Screen Actor's Guild or some such thing. I have no idea what that means, but that's what they said.

I LOVE Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon, both.

BBM didn't get any awards for the actors at the SAG awards. But I would guess it'll win Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplay and Best Score at the Oscars. I'm not sure about Heath, Jake & Michelle though. I think they'll be going home empty handed.

I hate Reese Witherspoon with a passion, but still think she'll win.

Oh, I'm sure. But I still think Jake was so friggin' excellent.

Ha! Love the new default icon. *watches it*

I got bored today and stole borrowed a bunch of new icons. Since I haven't been motivated to make any new icons myself. The Jack Nasty one is my fave though. I keep rewatching that part from Oprah.

Isn't it? You can find the bestest stuff when you've decided not to do any work for the day! ;)

Man. I need to do less work, and more poking around the internet. After all, who needs to graduate? ;)
