The Dark Knight Score DQ'd from Academy Awards Contention

and only YOU disagree!!!

no need for it,from you at least.

why because so far everything youve said ive disagreed on. wel if everything you have said was actually true or made any sense i might give you a chance

you're hopeless.

why yes THE JOKER is here. see you spelled that wrong too. Damn you cant read

THE JOKE,i spelled it right this time!!

jerko the rotten,long time. and the joke,you're here as well?

agreed. i hate to back down from a good battle tho.

knobie09 just wants attention and I think we should stop giving it to him.

i have to disagree with what you said about Ledger being the only oscar worthy thing in the movie. The score was great and most of us think so. It deserved a win. Morgan Freeman and Michael Caine were stellar as they are in all of their roles. Aaron Eckhart did a great job with his transitions from Harvey Dent then to Two-Face. Bale does a both a great Bruce Wayne and a great Batman in the same film, which is something people who portayed Batman before really struggled with before. The visual effects were off the charts. The Hospital blowing up, the flipping of the truck, Batman soaring through the skies. That was definitely worth an oscar. Christopher Nolan had a great eye for the movie and put together a masterpiece and he should be in the running for best director as well

my apologies- it still "IS" cool!!!

it's allan moore's joker. bob kane's joker was nickolson,and it's still cool.

to pipebomb:FINALLY!!! someone sees the light!!! ledger's performance is THE ONLY REASON T.D.K. is the blockbuster that is today!!! if he wins,he earned it. if not,no biggee. what matters is that someone finally portrayed the joker just as voilent as it appears on allan moore's "the killing joke".

that's a real shame
the score is what gives these movies it's pizazz

To Knobie: I KNOW your were congratulating the academy, you prick.

Who gives a shit anyways? I don't remember the score knocking me back in my seat, and me saying "WOW! I'm gonna run out and buy this soundtrack." Shit, in my opinion the only thing TDK should receive an academy nod for would be 'Best Supporting Actor' for Heath's performance. After the 2nd & 3rd viewing the rest of the cast seemend very weak in terms of their performances. Bale's cookie-monster bat voice is fucking retarded as all hell.

So...at the end of the day all you got is a decent action flick set in the DC universe. I wouldn't be suprised if the academy passed it over entirely.

It shouldn't matter how many composers helped with the score. As long as the whole thing is OSCAR-WORTHY, right?

vis... no,my congratulations are for the academy awards executives,they do an admirable job,you never do. so don't flatter yourself!!!

HA VERY TRUE DIAIGMA LOL

Wow...first I've ever heard of this...
I guess they're afraid that TDK will get nominated for everything...as it should!

FUCK THE ACADEMY AWARDS. SUCK MY DICKKK.

Fuck the executive committee! What the fuck do they know, old motherfuckers.

FUcking fucktards! This is Bullshit!!!
If this isn't made3 up for by a Best pic, Best Director, Best Screenplay, and best supporting actor, I am going to slash some throats.

The Academy is stupid for not allowing co-compositions. As a Zimmer maniac I've come to accept disappointment when it comes to his work's recognition. Gladiator should have won as well as The Thin Red Line.

The Academy changed the rules after the score for The Color Purple won in which six composers got Oscars for their work on the film. I just don't understand who they think they are to decide how a film should be made. Filmmaking is all about collaboration; that's how Hans learned and that's how he teaches. He's said numerous times as modest as he is that he doesn't make scores for awards, but it would be nice to see him get the recognition he deserves.

I'm hoping his score for Frost/Nixon will get him his first nomination since 2000 for Gladiator.

And being a very committed Zimmer fan i know how he works. Someone could just give an idea of whAT THEY THINK could go in different places. If he likes it will put it in and give them writing credit even though they actually wrote nothing. Ex: Lisa Gerrard in Gladiator. So with that being said its really bullshit cuz thats prolly all it was with the credit being given. The score wins the oscar in our hearts. PLus im sure Zimmer wont be too depressed tho cuz he legititmally cares more about making sure a film's score is the absolute best it can be rather than just going for awards all the time

sorry i forgot to insert "all of their agents; just for a movie"

well this doesn't make sense at all. That's like DQing every movie becuase hundreds of people work on it. Well duh. You have to have musicians and song writers to make songs, you have to have actors, directors, casting directors, producers, tech guys & crew, AND ALL OF THEIR AGENTS. That's a lot of people. So why should credit be due just to one director, one actor, or one composer?

The Dec 21, 2012 cataclystic event in the Mayan calendar is HORSESHIT.... but THIS? This is flat out BULLSHIT!!!! Who gives a crap if 1 or 20 men get credited for the score??? Stupid! Just plain STUPID!

FUCKING EEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

I don't care if 97 people composed it. If it's clearly a better score than the others it should win, and if it's not better it shouldn't.

I don't see the Academy DQing movies that are "Produced by 20th Century Fox, in conjunction with Dreamworks Entertainment, anlong with Mandalay Pictures & Paramount Entertainment. Also accompanied by Viz Media... blah blah blah"... you get the point.
