Where's the outrage?!?!??!?!?!?
Elfman snubbed for the fourth time by the Academy!



The fix is in. The Academy snubs anyone or anything associated with the movie The Forbidden Zone.

1. Was he nominated for something?
I pay so very little attention to awards things.

2. Best Original Movie Score.
For Milk. Last year he churned out some of his best work in years with Milk and Wanted being top of the list.

3. *sigh*
I wonder what piece of crap won instead.

See? This is why I don't pay attention. It's total bullshit.

6. Elliott Smith lost for Ms Misery in 1998
And that POS Celine Dion-wailed Titanic theme won. :puke:

The Oscars are strangers to taste. And to justice.

15. Au contraire: Elfman gargles donkey balls.
Trite, predictable and a certain, undefinable forced quality to his themes.

4. It's there, seething under the surface, just waiting to erupt in an orgy of violence and degradation

5. At first I thought that said "violence and dehydration"...
I was quite puzzled for a moment there.

Yup, there it is. One can of outrage, not even past date. :)

8. I have plenty of outrage...
but not for that. Danny Elfman deserves to have no career whatsoever for the mere existence of the film The Forbidden Zone.

11. Only a musical genius, that's all.
Don't trouble yourself, go listen to some Kenny G or something.

16. Elfman is competent in a pedestrian sort of way.
Don't try listening to Ives or Kaman. Your head might explode.
