What LotR's Oscars Really Mean

What LotR's Oscars Really Mean
Just to recap, Lord Of The Rings: The Return Of The King won the following Oscars:
  • Art direction
  • Costume design
  • Directing
  • Film editing
  • Makeup
  • Music (original score)
  • Best picture
  • Sound mixing
  • Visual effects
  • Adapted screenplay
The Academy's tacit message to the actors: "Everything about this movie was perfect...EXCEPT YOU!!!"
Okay... That's not entirely fair. Thoth reminded me that the main fault with the Oscars is that there isn't an award for "Best Ensemble," and he's totally right. Even with intimidatingly good, heavy-hitting acting talent like Christopher Lee and Sir Ian McKellen, each actor pulled his or her own equal weight in the film.
