The Oscar Academy is on crack
As if snubbing Children of Men for best pic and Volver for foreign pic weren't bad enough, seeing Clint Mansell's brilliant score for The Fountain is an utter travesty. WTF?

7. Yeah, I saw him on Charlie Rose the other night, and he mentioned it
He insists that he finds it a great honor, but it would nice to see an actual performance get the award.

Maybe for Supergirl.
