Fuck you.
You wouldn't know a good movie if it bit you on the ass, and you wouldn't know a decent score if it jumped up and flashed you.
Year after year, I hope that you're going to nominate something worthwhile, and year after year, I'm disappointed.
LoTR is up for Best Picture, but let's be honest, it's more of a half ass nod than anything else. You couldn't really not nominate it for something, and the lack of any nominations for the actors involved says exactly how high a regard you hold it in.
And okay, My Big Fat Greek Wedding isn't life altering or artsy. But it's a fun movie. Remember those? The kind that make you want to go to the movies?
And come on. What kind of crack nominated these scores? You're nominating the score because you liked the movie, and you don't think it's good enough to get the best picture Oscar, aren't you? And for fuck's sake! Another goddamn John Williams score? Just because he does your shitty telecast, you figure you have to toss him a nod to keep him happy? He hasn't written an original-sounding piece in the last 8 years! Where is Howard Shore? The score to the Two Towers regularly had me in tears. Where's Danny? Red Dragon had to be bombastic enough for you!
So, in conclusion, you suck, and I shouldn't be surprised.
Fuckers.
Fuck you.
