Re: Golden Globe Nominations
As for TDK not being nominated, I am shocked....simply shocked. Because these award shows are usually all about honoring science fiction, fantasy, and comic book movies. Errrr....no. Other than Return of the King, which was basically nominated as a three-movie achievement award for Peter Jackson, it's unlikely we'll see any other such movies nominated in the near future. Even though TDK worked just as well, if not better, as a Heat-esque crime movie, the people who vote on these panels are biased towards non-comic-book movies.Helen: Everyone's special, Dash.

Re: Golden Globe Nominations
Overall, though, I don't know if I noticed a movie with better directing yet this year (that I saw, at least). No way have I been emotionally captured by the images on screen like the way Nolan does it. It's just a shame that the score can't get a nod because of that 70% credit thing.
It's a biased opinion of mine, but I definitely would have loved to see The Dark Knight get some more nominations anyway (including Best Director), simply because it truly has been the biggest movie of the millennium thus far.Samsung PN60F8500 PDP / Anthem MRX 720 / Klipsch RC-62 II / Klipsch RF-82 II (x2) / Insignia NS-B2111 (x2) / SVS PC13-Ultra / SVS SB-2000 / Sony MDR-7506 Professional / Audio-Technica ATH-R70x / Sony PS3 & PS4 / DirecTV HR44-500 / DarbeeVision DVP-5000 / Panamax M5400-PM / Elgato HD60Comment

Re: Golden Globe Nominations
Can't really complain as their were so many great dramas this year. If it were me giving the award it would go straight to Slumdog Millionaire a excellent film by the master Danny Boyle.-JoshComment

Re: Golden Globe Nominations
Only seen about 30 minutes of it. My boss is a member of the academy and she's being stingy about giving me that screener. I watched a piece of it a work the other day and I thought it was good. The reviews have been good so far also.Comment

Re: Golden Globe Nominations
No doubt about that. Yeah I know it was suppose to be "darker" so his voice became deeper but in my opinion I think he still would have came off "dark" with his actions not his voice. In fact I think it would have been more effective.
I see where your coming from though.-JoshComment

Re: Golden Globe Nominations
Well I'm sure if they had a Best Action/Adventure Movie award TDK would be nominated. You know it's going to sweep the MTV awards. Pulp Fiction all over again.
It seems the Oscar folk have been open to science fiction, fantasy, and comic book movies since 1938 when The Adventures of Robinhood was nomiated and if you don't want to count that as fantasy for some reason then in 1939 when Wizard of Oz was nominated even though they weren't limited to 5 nominations back then. The Exorist was nominated,Jaws,Star Wars,Raiders,E.T.,A Clockwork Orange,even Beauty & the Beast...so yes there's more than LOTR. Gladiator actually won and I think that can be streteched to fantasy.Comment

Re: Golden Globe Nominations
The Oscars ratings have been piss poor for as long as I can remember - I think having a lot of TDK noms would give them a bit of a boost, especially if Ledger is nominated and if TDK is nominated for Best Picture.
