Academy Awards
 

Lord of The rings Return of the king won all 11 awards that it was nominated for, including best director and best picture:) It's about time they rewarded these movies.

Agreed.

They probably haven't awarded the previous ones oscars cos they knew all three would be fantastic and they'd have to give them 11 oscars for three years!

Although the other two were great I must say Return of the King was one of the best. It's also very special to see a b-movie director move up to an academy award wining director:)

Now it's time to go back to horror :) , I bet he would get a huge budget at least.

I loved that he gave props to Meet the Feebles and Dead Alive...even though I hate Dead Alive

yeah I liked this as well... But unlike you I love Dead Alive AKA Braindead

since we are on this topic .. I was talking to a friend yesterday about the awards and peter Jackson.. I told him about some of the movies he has made and he was shocked that he had made some gore horror movies.. WTF I thought to myself.. I told my friend well shit Peter is very known by us horror freaks on his movies..

This gives hope to all the directors who make those kinds of movies. Hell, who knows, in a few years a guy who directs Troma movies could win some Oscars. That'd be great...

This is true..
