    Does Bill Murray have a shot?

    Or is Sean Penn a lock for Mystic River?

    I thought Bill Murray was amazing.

    I'd like to see Bill Murray win. Right now the buzz seems to be following Sean Penn and Johnny Depp.

    Of those two...I'd like to see Depp take it home. He did a dead on Keith Richards impersonation with Capt. Jack Sparrow.

      Depp is my favorite actor. His Sparrow character had a lot of his character in Fear and Loathing.

          Mystic river is SOOOOOOOOOOOOO over rated. There are so many similar non mainstream movies that are way better but people dont care about it cause they dont play them in the big cinemas.

          Mystic river is a bit more intelligent than Godzilla and the whole crowd goes....wooooow that movie is deep you know!

              i've but Bill on all my polls for weeks now. Firstly, he won the Baffta (British Oscars) which usually goes the same way but who knows. Secondly, they might be a bit afraid of giving it to Penn incase he gives a politcal speech.

              Thirdly, Bill was so good and sometimes they like people known for comdey doing drama and pulling it off. Though, they didn't even nominate Jim Carry for the Truman Show. So, who knows. Penn, will get another chance and Bill might not.

              Bill for dark horse. I hope he faxes in his speech like he did at the Bafftas.

                Most likely Sean Penn won't be at the Oscars anyway as he never goes to any award shows

                  thats the academy and the critics for you. They love the indy films, makes them feel sophisticated

                    I would say that it is too close to call. However I would like to see Bill Murray win it.

                      Let it go.


                      Bill will win because the Academy doesn't like Penn. I know it's sad, but true.

                        Penn is outspoken but he is damn good.

                        Bill does deserve it though. If not for lost in translation, for sure for his comic genious in What about Bob!

                            Lost in translation was horrible, but bill will win for his lifetime of work and everyone wants to hear his acceptance speech.

                                      Glad you liked it, but I didnt. I just thought they were trying to hard to be different.

                                      Sometimes differerent isn't always better. In my opinion, they just didn't ad enough storyline to keep my interest.
                                      And believe it or not, I'm known for liking "different" or wierd movies.



                                      Lets just hope that dolly lama promise comes through for bill

                                        I liked it as a relationship/character study. Also, i really felt for both of their positions having had not too diss similar things happen in my life.

                                            Is Murray nominated for Lost In Translation? That film blew me away, I thought it was unbelievably well done.

                                              I didn't really care for that movie. It was slow.

                                              Bill Murray didn't transform at all in that film. He was good, (well.. I do like him) but Sean Penn made a slow transformation throughout Mystic River.

                                              My vote was for Johnny Depp because I'm in to him, but
                                              I do feel they will give it to Bill Murray for the indy factor.

                                              Sophia's good. Virgin Suicides was better, IMHO.

                                              Should be interesting!~

                                                Bill Murray should win-

                                                But I have a feeling this year it willl go to Johnny Depp and it will cause a major uproar because of his anti American statements-

                                                Then again If Sean Penn wins...it'll probably be the same deal-

                                                Out of all three performances I think Sean Penn and Bill Murray were incredible. But Hollywood is Hollywood....

                                                  Is Lost in Translation up for best original screen play?

                                                  You know when I went to see it I didn't know it was Sophia, I only found out in the credits which made the Godfather poses all that much more funny.
