Makes you proud to be a Kiwi

Peter Jackson et. al take the show at the Oscars with all 11 for 11.  That puts LOTR right up there with Ben Hur and some ship movie.  A great start to what is going to be a huge week!  While Peter Jackson was self-deprecating of his previous efforts on stage at the Oscars I still have fond memories of BrainDead for reasons someone out there has probably long since forgotten.

In light of all the excitement I'm feeling super generous so be sure to check back on Tuesday morning and be in to win!

Oh. and I'll address some of the comments (good ones) on the previous post. They require a more detailed explanation...

    In fact, LOTR has surpassed Ben Hur and that Celine Deon vehicle: Ben Hur was nominated for 12 and won 11 Oscars; Titanic was nominated for 14 and won 11.

    Long Live New Zealand.

    (they must have forgot to thank me last night, Billy Crystal said that everyone had been thanked in New Zealand now...)
