Buffista Movies 5: Development Hell
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Presumably this would put The Queen in Adapted.

Aha, but the ACTUAL definition of the category involves the words "Material Previously Published."

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
From CNN:
The film was nominated for adapted screenplay, an odd designation for a largely improvised film, but perhaps the best the academy could come up with. (The film was "adapted" because Baron Cohen had played the character before, on his television show.)

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Wouldn't "Best Documentary" be a better category?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Ya know, it didn't have to be nominated for anything.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Ya know, it didn't have to be nominated for anything.
Totally. Especially since that slot could have gone to Prestige.
