I think you're right on with that pick. No other score this year has been as memorable. I had some nitpicks with the movie itself but the score is amazing.

I've been trying to decide which nominees to promote in this thread, and somehow I keep coming back to:

     The Darjeeling Limited for Best Art Direction

Now if I could only find a pretty still to help back that up...

Is anyone else somewhat disturbed that "One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind" didn't get the slightest bit of attention for Best Line?

Next year, we can break Best Line up into Original and Adapted categories.  Or Original, Adapted, and Archival.  Armstrong vs. Dylan, who would have won?
