I would love to see Matt Dillon win as well as the movie Crash.

His portrayal of a police officer was spot on. I really believed he was on the job. His human/off duty side portrayed is dead on as well.

Even though I haven't seen many of these I'm impressed with the selections (this is definitely the year for storytelling in movies).

I've seen Walk the line and I just saw Cinderella Man last night and I thought Giamatti was terrific!


If there was one open spot for Best Actor I'd like to see a steel cage match between Chuck Norris and King Kong to determine who gets that spot...

Was Don King Kong released too late for it to get nominated?

Boy, you'd think...i mean did if it didn't get nominated for any special effect cats then clearly, it did come out too late.

I'm really looking forward to seeing Crash. I've heard nothing but great stuff about it.

Oh. and.
