Wouldn't it be great if "Awesome.." was nominated for an Oscar?!

[birdfloatindown]

The Academy Awards aren't for a long time, but you never know. That would be so f*cking cool! It definitely deserves best documentary. Could you imagine if it won, and Hornblower got to give an acceptance speech...(!)

[Kid Presentable]

50 other people would be involved in the acceptance speech, too.

[chrisd]

yes it would be, everyone post, i'm sure some hollywood exec's kid is on here (grade A thread!) plus it would help mca's direction career ONLY GOOD LOOKS

[na§tee]

i strongly doubt this would happen.

[Laver1969]

i strongly doubt this would happen.

I think there is strong chance it could get nominated. From documentary to editing-type categories.

This film was accepted at Sundance and lots of other film festivals.

sorry, i know we're all fans here but i really don't think it's up to the standard of an inconvenient truth or ballets russes or any of the other documentaries that are being hyped for the 2007 race. awesome is a concert film, and while you can argue the boundary between concert film and documentary (it is, after all, uh.. documenting the concert) i don't think the academy types would be great fans of it or its very niche subject matter.

i do not think for one second it would ever be considered for best editing.

also, the deadline to submit films for documentary nominations is normally in september, so i think it is too late, unless the people behind the film have made a push for it already.

i think beastie music comes as more inconvenient to most anglo-saxon philistines then al gore's (power center member) movie

[na§tee]

i understand you were trying to be clever and witty in that sentence, but it totally didn't make any sense.

so you're saying that the music of the beastie boys would only appeal to people of a low cultural understanding?

[na§tee]

hey! did you get that, nivvie? that chrisd character is calling us sheep because SHEEP FOLLOW EACH OTHER and that means that you're just idle-y agreeing with what i say? LOL I SEE WHAT HE DID THERE!

God Forbid! People on message boards agreeing with each other! :confused:

Now lets go chew some primo under-the-fence-near-the-road grass.

[na§tee]

i know! ridonkulous!

hey, we're scottish. we're "familiar" with sheep, aren't we? s'all good in the hood.

btw, i raised a bebbe lamb once. yes i did. no not in the breast feeding way you pervs. it's mammy died and we had to bottle feed it for a couple of months at like 6am. it was not happy. lambs do not want to be cuddled. my mum gave it a bath using that old johnson's melon and pineapple toddler shampoo and every time it rained it would smell of fruit and foam a little. heehee (y)

[chrisd]

i think for his next pic mca should do a movie with scarlett johansson

[chrisd]

i read in wiki that she really loves cheese too...

i like lettuce tomatos and munster on rhye

that scene in LIT really made me cry...
