Topic: New Oscar rule limits song noms to 2 per film... Forum: groupsrv
Garondo Marondo wrote: Quote:LOS ANGELES - Last time around, the Oscar songs category was three times "Enchanted" — a trick that may never be repeated. The number of original songs that can be nominated from a single movie will now be limited to two, according to a rule change by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. The academy's governors approved the change late Tuesday. That may be rather difficult, as I thought Enchanted's three nominations were reflecting the fact that there don't seem to be that many original songs in movies to nominate these days-- No, not "original" ones...Not enough SONGS. Last year, we had three original "Dreamgirls" songs also filling out the noms...And if that pushed "Enchanted"'s issue, it's only because musicals are the only movies apart from gospel dramas or indie-musicals that even have anything to put on a soundtrack anymore. (The last three winners were a documentary, a rap drama, and a foreign film, fer cryin' out loud.) Derek Janssen ejanss1 at (no spam) verizon.net
