Academy Award countdown: 23 days till Oscar

George Clooney, nominated for Best Actor for his performance in Michael Clayton, won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for 2005’s Syriana. (Click the DVD for a quote from his character.)

Ever since the academy gave Crash the 2005 best picture award over Brokeback, i'v been significantly less enthused about the show.

Especially this year which it's guranteed to be a Golden-Globe type snooze fest even with Jon Stewart hosting again.

And the best part is that unless they can get the writers back, Stewart will have to ad-lib the show :)

But yeah, the Oscars are often as interesting and important in their omissions as they are in their awards. Part sociology, part who-bent-over-for-who for the past year.
