Well. There's an off chance Ian McDarmid will get a nom for best supporting actor, but I seriously doubt it.

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

Although I have only seen the trailer, so I reserve judgement. But they are definitely selling it as a LOTR type movie.

To be honest, I don't remember that. But I do remember Aslan being a wise and kindly lion who occasionally roared, rather than a CGI lion who roars constantly.
Kev, the dark tower rings a bell but I can't remember any details.

I also doubt that ROTS will get any Oscar nods at all. That's just the nature of the beast and frankly there was nothing more or less remarkable in ROTS than any of the prequels before it.
As for 'Narnia', I liked the BBC series a lot and am looking forward to the film. To some degree I think the filmmakers have no choice in how the movie is sold and I agree they are trying to cash in on the LOTR success. If it gets butts in theatres than I suppose this is ok. I will see it but I hope they focus more on the story than on the trappings and scenery.

I've read all of the Chronicles of Narnia when I was a kid, and loved every one of them. Even though Aslan is going to be CG, as long as they treat the character with as much respect as Gollum was on LOTR, and keep the story true to form, it should be pretty good. I'll be keeping an open mind until I see it.
