The thing about Passion of the Christ (which I have not seen) is that the audience reaction seems more dependent on your personal religious beliefs than for almost any other film. It has affected some people very deeply, offended others, and left others completely cold. I think that, more than anything, is why it wasn't nominated--it lives or dies for each viewer based solely on the baggage that viewer brings to the theater.

When I start seeing the national Plumbers award where the Plumbers of the world reward each other for good pipe-fittings, THEN I will care about the Oscars...


Well, I don't know if they give awards for pipe-fitting, but they do give awards for sexiest plumber: http://www.turnto10.com/entertainment/4068555/detail.html

No, that's at the teen choice awards.
