I happened to stop on CNN a few minutes ago and they were broadcasting the Oscars nominations live, while they didnt mention the Best Original Song, I looked it up on Oscar.com and the nominees for both Achievement in Music (Original Song and Score) did not have any nominations for Into the Wild. :(
Under best original song they have 3 nominations for Enchanted, Once and August Rush.
I was kind of disappointed as I thought Ed would definately get an Oscar nomination for this song.
Im confused though... they nominated 3 songs from the same movie? Does that ever happen? (not big fan of award shows, so not very familiar with them)...

Into The Wild, There Will Be Blood, and Enchanted are ineligible for original score for some reason.<a href="http://www.last.fm/user/Krisdababe/?chartstyle=Krisdababe"><img src="http://imagegen.last.fm/Krisdababe/recenttracks/Krisdababe.gif" border="0" /></a>

Yeah.
Achievement in music written for motion pictures (Original score)
"Atonement"
"The Kite Runner"
"Michael Clayton"
"Ratatouille"
"3:10 to Yuma"
Achievement in music written for motion pictures (Original song)
"Falling Slowly" from "Once"
"Happy Working Song" from "Enchanted"
"Raise It Up" from "August Rush"
"So Close" from "Enchanted"
"That's How You Know" from "Enchanted"
This is what their website says, it's so retarded though to nominate 3 songs from the same movie :rolleyes:"Without the album covers, where do you clean your pot?" - EV0 -

When I opened up the nominees for that category for a second I thought that maybe if hadn't updated and that's why they had the same movie on all the slots..- LOL
Maybe one song but 3? I haven't seen the movie nor have I heard the soundtrack but I think its ridiculous to give 3 nods to the same movie for Best Song"Without the album covers, where do you clean your pot?" - EV0 -

yeah but 3 songs is beyond stupid .. IMO (it could be that I'm just biased too of course)"Without the album covers, where do you clean your pot?" - EV0 -

That's what I thought too. Maybe they were still updating it. I have seen the movie and I can't even remember any of the songs. Three nods for one movie is ridiculous. They should just pick one song and stick with that.0 -
i was thinking the same thing... maybe they made a mistake on the website with the listing for the Best Song noms...
heh heh..
:(
oh well...we KNOW which song is bestest
and I LOVE Hal Halbrook... I wish he would win. He so deserves it for that heartbreaking performance.08 6/11 WPB 6/12 Tampa 6/24,25 MSG, 8/7 Ed @ Newark

I second that.0 -
The voting procedure:
The members of the various branches nominate those in their respective fields while all members may submit nominees for Best Picture. The winners are then determined by a second round of voting in which all members are then allowed to vote in most categories, including Best Picture.
Explains a lot, me thinksI would like to see a list of members, so we can figure out where their interests lie (and how many shares they have in Disney, hehehe!)
Oh well.Like a cloud dropping rain
I'm discarding all thought
I'll dry up, leaving puddles on the ground
I'm like an opening band for the sun0 -

That plus I don't think they want to take the risk of having Ed on stage giving speeches on Election year"Without the album covers, where do you clean your pot?" - EV0
