:KRC,
:I hope that you don't believe in the Oscars because anyone who would give Titanic awards above the many, many excellent movies that year is stupid!
No, I believe in good movies. If I enjoy a movie, then it's a good movie. It does not have to have won a multitude of Oscars and Globes for me to enjoy it - hence my appreciation of VA films!!
:Jason Lee, as an actor has a right to bitch all he want because he has a better view of how the acedmey works then you would.
True, I don't doubt he knows how the Academy works better than I do. However his post was centred around a lack of appreciation of his film, due to Dreamworks not financially supporting the Academy - where other Dreamworks pictures were nominated wern't they and AF was nominated for four awards - it just seemed like sour grapes to me.

"All those who place faith in the Oscars shall be deep fried and served with special sause, not becoming a proper meal like one would have if they were made with George Forman's Cooker!!!!!"
And as for me seeking attention... all I am gonna say on that is jealousy is such a waste of time!!
