The Way the Oscars should have been..

So after my post yesterday, Christian decided we could make a list of what should have won last year (2004) instead of what actually won, and we made our own categories that should be there but aren't.

Best Picture - Million Dollar Baby
Best Drama - Crash Runner Up - Collateral
Best Director - Clint Eastwood for Million Dollar Baby
Best Action Flick - National Treasure, Runner Up - The Bourne Supremacy, Troy
Best Superhero Flick - Spiderman 2 Runner Up Christian's Pick - Hellboy, Raul's Pick - The Punisher

Best Mindless Action Flick - Blade: Trinity
Runner Up - Christian's Pick - Walking Tall, Raul's Pick - The Chronicles of Riddick
Best Actress in a Mindless Action Flick (who also should have been topless) - Jessica Biel in Blade: Trinity

Shaun of the Dead?! That movie was terrible.

Come on Chas...that is like a cult classic. Kind of like Tremors...I agree it's not the greatest but it's pretty good.

I never saw it so I can't comment.

The beginning started out really funny, but towards the end it started to get lame. It was a better concept than delivery. They could have done better with it.

Loved Saun of the Dead, and Im thrilled to see IM not the only one in the world who liked Troy and King Arthur. I normally get "Are you SERIOUS??!!!" looks when I say so.

My sister didn't much care for either Troy or King Arthur. Personally I loved them. I might have to make the wife watch King Arthur this weekend...we have the unrated version. I can't seem to talk her in to going to the truck rodeo at the arena though. I can't imagine why she wouldn't want to see loud trucks in a closed building. In July, we're headed to Nashville to see the IRL race...you and Greg need to find a babysitter.
