Honestly I could care less. I never watch or give a flying rip about any Hollywerid awards. I don't care to feed the ego's of the their already inflated big heads. Can you tell I don't care?

If you ever watch Trainspotting, that has my opinion about the Oscars presented quite well.

Both Argo & Lincoln have had this laid at their door step and both are correct. You can find plenty about both in various articles on the net. Some historical inaccuracies are acceptable and understandable, some can ruin the film. I don't think either of these are ruined by their inaccuracies but if you are looking for a history lesson you're watching for the wrong reason. _________________ iMac 24" 2.4 GHz 4GB | Logitech S530 | Z-2300 speakers | NewerTech Guardian MAXimus RAID
