I agree with you Austin I think Peter Jackson should have been best director for 3 years but the acadamy frowns on scifi and horror movies and fantasy movies. Thats why George Lucas never got best pic for Starwars in 1977. I saw that Oscars that year and everyone the whole country knew Starwars had best picture in the bag it made the most money people were seen it 10 times. The specail effects were awesome you could not say enough about the movie. And this movie that nobody even heard about that didnt even make 10% of what Starwars did got best picture the movie was The Good bye Girl. I think the reason Jackson won best director was because like Starwars the whole world liked LOTR but in Jacksons case he had 3 movies made back to back and the acadamy just could not ignore the success of LOTR so he was voted best Director. And he deserved it bigtime.
