QUOTE (Llama @ Jan 7 2008, 03:11 PM) I thought it went short list, then nominations. Or does it go long list, short list, nominations? I've got no idea either!  I was thinking maybe the shortlist are the actual nominees. So it's longlist - then shortlist/nominees. But I'm completely just guessing |

Ok, just because it's completely confused me, I looked it up and apparently:
QUOTE Round One: In the first round, Members may vote for up to 12 films/individuals per category but may register their abstention from any category where they feel unqualified to vote. Round Two: In the second round, Members may vote for up to five films/individuals per category. The results are returned and the top five in each category are listed as nominations. These numbers may be exceeded only in the case of a tied vote. So the ones on the list I posted get weeded down to the final nominations in the next round.... and that to me is a shortlist! |

^ Yeah that's pretty much how I thought it was.
Maybe Edgar just wants to call it a long list rather than a shortlist because he doesn't want everyone getting their hopes up too early. Basically the shortlist and the nominee list are the same list (and the list prior to that is the long list) |

I just ordered my Hot Fuzz 3-disk set!
 And from Amazon UK, I've ordered Big Nothing (I was too impatient to wait for it to be released here, plus it was cheaper anyway) & I've pre-ordered Run, Fat Boy, Run (which I won't watch until we've seen it at the cinema first)!  I'll be getting lots of Simon-y goodness in the mail over the next couple of months! *squeeee!*  Feel the love. dolfyn.  PS Now I'm off to watch Bad Boys II for the first time....... "You ain't seen Bad Boys II?"

I want to see it again too.
(Still haven't had the chance to re-watch it since we saw it together) |

Hot Fuzz will be shown on the Showtime channel on Pay TV on Friday the 25th at 8.30pm, here in Australia. "Bring the noise!"
I watched Bad Boys II & it rocked, by the way. I also watched Point Break for the first time in years. Those fake Aussie accents of the cops at the very end, still make me cringe! Why didn't they just get more real Aussies to do those lines?! (The only real Aussie was Peter Phelps, the surfer with the bandana on his head who tells Utah that no one's going out there.) Not even the radio announcer talking about the storm was Aussie. Nobody can do our accent! We can always spot a fake.  Feel the love. dolfyn.

When I was in the US people kept asking me if I was Australian
 I must have a very strange accent for them to have come to that conclusion!

People keep asking us where Nick & I from. Our accents are an indeterminable mix of various accents.
On the Hot Fuzz extras, when you hear us speak, we're putting on relatively neutral accents. Kev W |

I sometimes vary my accent a little. Sometimes I sound more posh & sometimes I ocker it up a bit. It depends on the situation & who I'm with.
Really, I think it comes down to trying to relate to the person I'm talking to & making them feel more comfortable.  Feel the love. dolfyn.

When my sister & I were in Canada some years ago, a waitress asked us if we were from Scotland.
Feel the (Highland) love. dolfyn.
