So the new EW arrived today, the Oscar re-vote from 03/98/93/88/83 for Picture/Director/all 4 actings.spoils

Posted by Will Hunting (aka kelly) Jan 9 '09, 12:55

interesting,
2003 - 5/6 still agree (Supp Actrees from Renee to Agohdorloo or whatever)

1998 - 4 new winners (Picture, Actor, Sup Actor, Actress)

1993 - 1 new winner (Supp Actor to Fiennes)

1988 - 1 new winner (Supp Actress to McDormand from Geena Davis)

1983 - .5 new winner. Tie for Cher/Linda Hunt instead of Hunt outright.

I call bullshit on 1983. Hunt's performance was incredible -- nm - Mr. Havens Jan 9, 13:10 5
- What was Cher's performance? Mask? I though tit was pretty good in that movie, given that it was *Cher*. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 9, 13:12 4
  - Silkwood -- nm - Mr. Havens Jan 9, 13:14
  - Mask was 87....this was for....Silkwood. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 9, 13:13 1
    - Mask was 1985 -- nm - Mr. Havens Jan 9, 13:14
  - what's wrong with Cher? she's been good in a lot of things. -- nm - loosilu Jan 9, 13:12
hey, you didn't tell us what they were changed to. -- nm - loosilu Jan 9, 13:05 2
- Okay...list of changed winners - Will Hunting Jan 9, 13:09 1
  - oh thank god for BP 98. -- nm - loosilu Jan 9, 13:12
I would've liked them to pick years that would have actually... - znufrii Jan 9, 13:02
If only they could really change 1998. They were cool with Judi Dench winning for 5 minutes of screen time? -- nm - Inigo Jan 9, 12:59 7
- it's not the quantity it's the quality. she packed more into those 5 minutes than a lot of actors manage for a lead role -- nm - pigby Jan 9, 13:00 1
  - Which is also why Viola Davis is getting so much heat for her one scene in Doubt - Mr. Havens Jan 9, 13:17
- but then you have to change 1997. -- nm - Reagen Jan 9, 13:00 4
  - About what? - Will Hunting Jan 9, 13:03
  - You mean Basinger? I'm fine with that. Julianne Moore was way better, imo. -- nm - Inigo Jan 9, 13:03 2
    - no, that Hunt beat her the year before, which is the reason she won in 98. -- nm - Reagen Jan 9, 13:03 1
      - Hunt was 1983 and Basinger was 1997. I am totally confused too as to what you are getting at -- nm - Mr. Havens Jan 9, 13:15
this is why people have their little People's Choice Awards -- nm - pigby Jan 9, 12:57 3
- Of the few changes, I don't really see any outrages. - Will Hunting Jan 9, 13:00 2
  - So, Fiennes wins best actor, but it loses for Picture and Actress? -- nm - Inigo Jan 9, 13:05 1
    - Nope, it picked up Supporting for Geoffrey Rush from Coburn. - Will Hunting Jan 9, 13:06
Rafe in Schindler's List is one of the best performances I've ever seen. Jones was good, but come on. -- nm - Reagen Jan 9, 12:56 6
- Just looking at the nominees that year...DiCaprio should have finished ahead of Jones too. -- nm - Jim Jan 9, 13:05 2
  - He did in the re-vote. Jones was 3rd. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 9, 13:10
  - And Ben Kingsley. -- nm - Inigo Jan 9, 13:07
- If you ever ask me what's evil personified in movies, it's Fiennes scene in the mirror "I pardon you." - Will Hunting Jan 9, 12:57 1
  - absolutely. - Mel Profit Jan 9, 12:58
- Word. That was outright robbery. -- nm - Jim Jan 9, 12:57
