#5 “I have to laugh that Avatar was nominated for best original screenplay ”

You’re not the only one! How the words “original” and “Avatar” got lumped together is beyond me!

And as long as Trek does good enough to get a sequel green-lit, I don’t care how “poor” the box- office take is world-wide. I have a sequel coming. I’m happy!

I agree that I feel Heath Ledger would not have been nominated if he were still alive.

I did not like Nero as a villain in Trek XI but I could not fault Eric Bana, he did great with what he got.

#23 Heath Ledger was great in the role of the “Joker” and deserved to win the Oscar. But I have to agree that he wouldn’t have won the award if he was still alive. The Dark Knight is still a great movie even without the huge box office numbers. Eric Bana played the role of Nero to the best of his abilities, but in the end Nero just wasn’t that interesting. Not bad, mind you, but not great either.

@9 Eric wont win anything because he didnt die during the post-production of the film.

Its the only reason dark knight made as much as it did and won as much as it did

Its gonna be a long shot for “Star Trek” to win anything at the BAFTAS just as it is for the Oscars. Well the important thing is “Star Trek” is being recognized for what it is: A truly great movie.

RE: not doing well overseas

while it is true Star Trek underperformed other summer movies overseas, all the weakness was in the non-english speaking countries. Star Trek was as bit a hit in the UK as it was in North America. So the BAFTAs should be familiar with Trek. Not that there is a correlation between BAFTA and box office, just like there isn’t one for Oscar and Box office
