The Monkey Island SCUMM Bar: Dude, it gets respect!

Yes, LucasTones certainly feels vindicated after Pirates of the Caribbean took home five (count 'em) Oscar nominations. Granted, three of them are technical, and one is for music, but at least Johnny Depp finally got a well deserved nod thanks to his pirate shenanigans. The awards will be presented February 29th on ABC (in America).

The ceremony will be shown live on the BBC as well, fully 2 weeks to the day after the BAFTA's - for which POTC also recieved five (count 'em) nominations. Johnny Depp is the clear obvious winner at both ceremonies, woo!

I'll go postal if Bill Murray doesn't win for best actor. Actually, no I won't, Depp was great too, but Murray's character had a lot more depth. Sean Penn will win anyway. ;

But if they give it to Bill Murray, he won't be there to accept it. Well, I'm sure I read it somewhere that he denounced the Oscars several years ago... then again, remember Woody Allen? I think Depp deserves the Oscar more, not necessarily for POTC but because every performance he does is awesome, whereas some of Murrays leave a little to be desired.
