...Oscar nights of old, the big stars would thank "all the little people" who helped them win their Oscar. This year many of the big stars--Brad Pitt in Babel, Jack Nicholson in The Departed, Johnny Depp in the second Pirates of the Caribbean--are already out of the running, while little-known Japanese and Mexican actresses and a 10-year-old will have their names called as nominees. Another anomaly: Dreamgirls, which snagged the most nominations (eight), was shut out of Best Picture and Director. That leaves two old thoroughbreds, Clint and Marty, to fight it out against...
...nothing like revitalized talent for Oscar bait. Murphy shows some of his early-career thunder in a serious role. JACKIE EARLE HALEY A kid actor who was out of the biz for a decade, he's poignant in the role of the child molester in Little Children. BRAD PITT O.K., he's still got Angelina.

Denzel Washington and Tom Hanks topped the list, which also included Will Smith, Johnny Depp and George Clooney. Nothing radical there, except that Pitt, Jolie and, oh, Tom Cruise were among the missing...
...Evidently it has nothing to do with blinding people with their hotness. (Actually we think that's a power one of those actors from Heroes was trying to wield on the E! cameras.) When asked on the red carpet how many kids he and Angelina Jolie would have, Brad Pitt said, "We're thinking soccer team. Start our own country, enter the World Cup. And dominate it." Sounds like a nice goal, Brad. See you and Maddox at the game...
