Finally, the Academy gets the idea

Standard

TheOneRing.net has a list of the 11 nominations that Lord of the Rings: Return of the King garnered this year. Thankfully, Best Picture and Director are among them, and thank God the Academy got its head out of its collective behind and let RotK’s score be nominated. Yeah sure it sounds like the other two, for continuity’s sake…but it has wonderful original moments. But…no cinematography? Eh. It’ll be interesting to see which of my two favorite movies of the year (RotK and Pirates) win in the categories they’re going head to head in. And yay Johnny Depp! A nomination for best actor! Whee! This should be an interesting night.
