I'd bitch more about Raging Bull not winning best director than Aviator.

Raging Bull lost Picture and Director to the forgettable film
Ordinary People directed by Warren - er, Robert Redford
Goodfellas lost Picture and Director to the more-forgettable film
Dances with Wolves directed by Kevin Costner
And now, Marty loses to Clint Eastwood.*
Do you see a pattern here? Marty always gets bounced by a Hollywood insider.
I can see the headlines now in 2007: "Martin Scorcese loses Oscar again; Ashton Kusher - in his directorial debut - gets top award for his big screen version of Punk'd"
* Who won this award more for last year's Mystic River, when he lost because of Peter Jackson's LOTR "body of work" award.
