Tough year

Forrest Gump
Shawshank
Pulp Fiction

Should have been recognised though.
Yeah, them straight people convincingly portraying straight people were so captivating.

John Travolta nominated for best actor in Pulp Fiction... what in the actual ****. Yeah he nails the role, but the role doesn't exactly entail a wide spectrum of human character. It's basically just talking shit.

This movie was seriously ignored. My dad should at least been a shoe in for best extra, in the role he was born to play. Drunk in pub watching strip show.

I was having a bit of unpaid leave from work at the time. I could've afforded it but thought. It's ok. I'll go next time. Dumbest decision of my life

I've always loved Dio. Pretty much everything - Elf, Rainbow, everything...
I just saw a Hyundai ad featuring Holy Diver.

Add The Logies, Rock n' Roll HoF is another load of bollocks
The Logies is at least relevant to its own industry, which is local Australian TV.

The Arias has all of Australian music to work with, some of which has international acclaim and success, and still manages to be shit.

The Rock n Roll HOF needs to go. Are KISS still fighting with it?

NUFC, YES.

I last saw some of the Logies a few years ago. Whoever won the Best New Talent award delivered a speech with all the seriousness of having landed a Nobel Prize for cancer curage.

Until it recognizes greatness and not just album sales it's a crock I can't associate Rock with a bunch of suits backslapping & watching on once a year anyway it seems so lame and acceptable.
Well that's entirely subjective. Album sales is at least a quantifiable measure. Also what's the beef with suits? Suits can be rock n roll.



Especially denim suits.
