Oh so true, the Hollywierds do not care what films are revered by the public, but only their politics ie: not a single nomination for the biggest drawing film of all time (Passion) and then a backdoor nomination for Pokeback Mountain? Film making is a lost art, and Hollywierd is too blind to see.

I get your point, but let's try and be a bit honest here. The Passion of the Christ was not the biggest drawing film of all time. It did very well, yes, top 10 all-time in domestic box-office gross. If you adjust for inflation (which is a better indicator of all-time draw) it's not even in the top 50. In fact, it wasn't even the highest grossing movie of that year (Shrek 2 and Spider-Man 2 both outdrew it).
