JdS will become famous soon enough

... and the Oscar goes to?


I think the LOTR deserves to win. Though I haven't seen 'Gangs of New York' yet...

I agree with you really good movie. But I have to admit I went to see Star Trek (yes I like Star Trek) and I have to say I liked Lord of the Rings but I personal enjoyed Star Trek I alittle more.

I saw Star Trek too, and I thought it was rubbish! The story was meek enough and very predictable, and while the CGI is great (as usual) there were some serious laws of physics that were broken!

For instance, the most glaring thing was when the Enterprise rammed the other ship and stuck well into it. When the other ship backed up, the 2 should have stayed together, the Enterprise sure didn't reverse up too. Yet the ships seperated???

Lord of the Rings was an excellent movie. Top Notch.

Well your correct about Star Trek and I would agree with you I still enjoyed it, but I wasn't looking for it to win any awards.

Ah, right sorry

I just was disappointed in it, to be honest I've seen better episodes.

No sorry I didn't mean to sound upset, I think your totally right there were some big problems in the movie. and hopefully next time they'll do a little better. I agree there have been better episodes. Are you a fan? and if so of which series?
I totally understand that people have there own opponent and I think thats what makes the world a great place. Beside how boring would it be if everyone agreed all the time

No, Star Trek didn't make it to the 'Best Picture' nominees list...

I didn't think it would. I personally like it a little more but I didn't think it would make the list.
