I think it's pathetic and it will devalue the awards even more. As is it is, there's been little moviegoer passion about the Academy's top five, let alone when there'll be ten with even more losers included. I think the Academy Awards started out as a way for people in the movie industry to encourage and recognize each other's artistic achievements. Now it really is just a business ploy and an ego stroking for the old and connected in Hollywood. The last few decades have shown that the Academy has no ability to recognize truly exceptional artistic achievement in film.

I like the Golden Globes way, because sometimes it is really difficult to compare and contrast a comedic performance with a really serious one, but it doesn't mean that either one is inherently weaker.

There were so many good films last year that would have garnered more attention in a nom, (eg Frozen River, The Visitor). Film production is down 30%, the marketing boost is needed! I’m pleased.
