Jack Palance was great, however I in no way enjoyed City Slickers. I think I am a minority on that though so I would agree he didint deserve it for that particular film

But the Oscars are all about bull****! Return of the King didn't deserve a single Oscar, yet it got 11. You can agree that it was entertaining, but few would say that it was the BEST film of 2004 (or whatever year it's from). It's not THAT good. They even gave it an Oscar for Best Original Score, even though the previous two films features the exact SAME score, thus it wasn't very Original, was it? Anyway, the point is that ROTK got the oscars because people at the academy felt it was about time they shared some love with that trilogy. If people don't have any problems with that, how can they have a problem with Jack Palance getting an Oscar for being so damn cool?

I lost all interest in awards after that Milli Vanilli thing and not for the reasons most give. If the SONG won, the public face of the song shouldnt matter. They should have just tranferred to the actual performers. Ordinary People beat raging Bull. And DOTD was the best film of 1979 goddammit

It amazes me that it was so good given half the actors can not act outside the trilogy.

City of God was so good in everyway. Not to mention a unique look into Brazils Shanty towns. The filmmaker was from the City Of God. American Splendor is a total masterpiece. Literally the comic come to life. Juice was a great movie. Not like Fresh, but I never hear it mentioned anywhere. LaHaine was really original. I liked how the Jewish Kid was the nutjob, the Arab was the Pimp and the black kid was smart and reasonable. Flipped the hood movie on its head. How a gun was a rare find was a great look into another cultures norms I ahve posted 500 times on DOTDs greatness already Didnt see the others I didnt list Titanic and Chicago were both totally wack. When I saw Titanic I had been drinking Scottish Ale. I fell asleep and woke up for when the boat starts to sink. A great 1/2 hour. The rest? who cares Yes, agreed jack was awesome! i wish he was still alive. I loved the trilogy when it first came out. It amazes me that it was so good given half the actors can not act outside the trilogy. I dont know, Frodo was kick ass in green street hooligans. I thought Samwise was great. I loved LOTR trilogy. All of em to different degrees. Yeah I forgot everybodies real names

amazing to see someone else likes "fresh". i have been a media student/practitioner for 5 years and ive met FIVE people who've seen that movie. everyone, if you havent seen it, give it a whirl, if you like emotional dramas and hood movies, you will dig this movie, i guarantee...

"what do you have to offer my organization?" "Yo, I bust out ALL them Dope Moves!" "Shut up, Chucky!" To me its not a hood movie cause its not about the hood. Its about Fresh, his Dad, Chucky and the stupidity of man. About how it takes brains to survive not idiot profiling. I think Fresh is a masterpiece. The writing is rarely matched ans that kid is a top notch actor. Truly gifted. Chucky was awesome. I knew a sh!tload of kids like that growing up. There is not one wrong note in that movie. Yeah, you had a great list there. We like the same things.

Jack is dead and he can still kick the ass of the punks that voted him most unworthy.
