LotR:RotK is way way way overrated. It will definitely leave a lasting impression in the movie world, but in the purest qualitative sense, it's cinematic fluff and little more.

I vote for Lost in Translation in every category it was nominated for, which if memory serves, are:

Best Picture
Best Original Screenplay
Best Actor
Best Supporting Actress
Best Director (?)

Lost are LotR are polar opposites, but are both great movies. One just happens to be much moreso than the other.

So was Shakespeare in Love, but that didn't stop it from winning Best Picture.

For everything it's nominated for, Lord of the Rings. Any movie that goes up against it should get a consolation prize or something.

Though you have a right to your opition.... I ahve a right to oppose it. I heard a lot of negative stuff about lost in translation, making me decide to not see it..... I'm sure it was a good movie, but well.... I can't explain it. LotR had everything taht is he back-bone to a movie.... a solid cast (st.... ac...my... not... 1....sin.....nom...act....), a KICK *** director, some of the best scenary (natural and man-made), the work of the second best movie composer (seconded by John Williams), great effects.... but most of all, a story that truely immerses the viewer in the tale and one that is still being retold, and will probably be re-told and re-read for DECADES to come!

PS: I don't think J.R.R. Tolkien gets enough credit.....

PPS: I wonder why the academy doesn't have a worst picture award..... I can see it now.
And the nominees are: Gili (whatever it is spelled), Gili, AND GILI! AND THE OSCAR GOES TO........ GILI!!!
