With the Oscars coming this weekend, everyone is looking to see who will be honoured at the industry’s most glamourous event! Every category has its short list and betting and discussion is taking place over each and every one of them.
There are some categories I just don’t care about, but even those have value. Everyone should be resepected for their contribution to films.
But some categories should be added as time goes on. As animated features were taken more seriously, a category was added to honour them. So why not other categories? Stan Lee suggests the Best Cameo Artist category!
But in all seriousness, I think there should be a Best Trailer Category as well. These are the snippets of the film carefully selected and edited in the hopes of making you want to rush out to the theater! This is truly a difficult task!
I have seen trailers and not cared, then later picked up the movie and loved it. (Fountain, Emperor’s New Groove) … those guys FAILED to make a good trailer that drew me into seeing the movie. I had to discover it by accident! And other times I have seen a trailer that makes a movie look awesome (The Musketeer looked great) and then the movie sucked ass. THAT GUY deserves an Oscar. He took what he had and spun golden beer flavoured nipples!
Any categories you think should be added?
