Academy Awards Knowledge Base
Academy Awards? Just to let everyone know, I am not trying to insult ANYONE by asking this question. When the song "It's gettin' hard out here for a pimp" from Hustle & Flow was performed at the 2006 Academy Awards, I hated the song, I mean I absolutely completely hated the song. I also thought about how later it was going to get really bad reviews. And then when the song was finished, I hear this THUNDEROUS applause. was it just me, or does it seem like all the white people in the audience were just clapping because they didn't later want to be called racist by the black people who performed the song. Or, were they just trying to be polite. AGAIN, totally not trying to offend anyone. I just read it on one of the reviews on the internet, and I was curious to see what everyone thought about it. Or did you think that they actually enjoyed the song.
academy awards..............? Wonder why the academy awards ratings are down? Sean Penn has two awards and is a great great actor but also his parents were connected. Last night they could have given award to Rourke but they did not because it is not only about great acting but politics as usual. ok, I was wrong about the ratings but still why did Batman not win or was not nominated for best picture when the sales were through the roof? i agree the plot was not too intricate but still good
What is the Profit for Batman 3 and how many academy awards did they win? Okay, one of my friends said that it cost the makers of Batman 3 to spend $100 million on the movie.

Who was disappointed with the horror segment at the academy awards? I loved the tribute to horror movies that the academy awards showed. The Universal Studios classic movies were just amazing. However, having the stars from Twilight come out and introduce it was just awful. And including the movie with the other was a low blow to the genre. Is there any TRUE horror fans that agree with me?

Anyone who knows the principle of the award at the Academy Awards? 1. If a movie has several good male actors, is it possible that more than one actor are nominated for Best Actor in a Leading Role in one year? 2. I thought only american movies can win Academy Awards. Why was it possible that Slumdog Millionaire got so many in 2009?
Best place for fans outside the Academy Awards Red Carpet tomorrow afternoon? I'm from out of town--just moved here and am wondering, where's the best place for fans to stand tomorrow afternoon as the stars walk the red carpet for the Academy Awards?

About watching the Academy Awards in Germany? I live in Munich, and I would like to watch the Academy Awards taking place on the 27th of February. I do not know where it will take place, and so unfortunately do not know the time zone. However, that of Munich is: CET. At what time, in Munich, would the awards start? And if one would be kind enough to give the red carpet start-off as well? Would be very much appreciated, thank you!
Is it time to end the Academy Awards presentations? After more than 50 years of watching the Academy Awards I think it is time to stop. The mania over Kieth Ledger's performance is overkill in my book and ranting over other selections also seems unjust. Recent movies have turned me off because they are too loud and story lines are erratic.

Ideas for keeping a three year old occupied during the academy awards? We want to watch the show tonight and I am stumped on how to keep our three year old girl entertained while we watch.

They need to create toddler academy award bingo....look for a lady in a red dress...look for a man with a beard... We are in california so the show starts very early and ends 8ish. She goes to bed at 7:30
What type of tie did Lee Marvin wear at The Academy Awards in 1966? I'm a big Lee Marvin fan. Seen most of his movies and think he was the best drunk, tough guy and all around butt kicker in the history of film. Anyway, I always liked the tie Marvin wore to the Academy Awards when he won the Oscar for Cat Ballou back in the 60's. I want to wear one like it during my wedding ceremony this summer but I can't find out what the heck they called this type of tie. It's not a bowtie, it's not an ascot or a short tie, it just looks like a black triangle of some sort. See it at http://www.howardhallis.com/news/2006/leemarvin.gif Anyone know what they call the kind of tie he's wearing in the photo in the above link and where I could possibly get my hands on one?

How do you get into the stands for the academy awards? Hi! I was wondering, you know how there are stands for the awards shows besides the red carpet? Well how do you get tickets to be in those stands? Do you have to get there early? Any information helps. I really want to go!
How will Hugh Jackman fare as the host of the Academy Awards? An interesting selection. He's definitely charismatic and a born entertainer (from Oklahoma! to Wolverine), but I struggle to picture him hosting the Acadey Awards. I wonder if there will be far more emphasis, in terms of hosting duties, on physical performances and skits and far less emphasis on "cracking jokes."
How many nominations can an actor get per category accordingto the Academy Awards rules? At the academy awards, can you get more than one nomination at the same coategory? I mean, if Helen Mirren would have done two films that were amazing and she could get nominated for both preformances at the Best Actress Category, could she? Or she can't compete against herself? I really need this answer and a link that sypports your answer. Like a way to check it, i have a bet with a friend and I need her to see that It's not something you and I think. The oscars are like in a half hour. Please remeber to link where you got the info.
Does anyone feel that lately the Academy Awards aren't the same anymore? In decades like the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s, the movies were better and more deserving of awards. However, I feel that lately studios and movie makers only care about winning oscars and awards. The quality of good movies has decreased drastically!! It seems like today anyone or any movie can win or be nominated for an oscar. There are many movies that are made today that are very good, and a lot of times they don't get the recognition they deserve. Does anyone else agree?
Why do people care about the Academy Awards? These people don't care about you whatsoever. They probably don't even consider themselves the same species. Why are people so interested in the arrogant people that flaunt money like selfish idiots? Why isn't there awards for regular people that actually contribute to society? Its a movie....nothing more.
