		LOS ANGELES (AP) -- A year after two fl nominees won the lead-acting prizes for the first time, the Academy Awards are back to a likely sweep of the four actor categories by white performers.
		Yet some find it encouraging that at least a couple of nonwhite actors managed to score nominations from an academy whose early years were virtually devoid of minority membership and which even in the past decade has had years without a single nonwhite acting nominee.
		Advocates say more minorities must follow the lead of Washington, whose star power helped smooth the way for his directing debut, last year's "Antwone Fisher," based on the true story of a troubled fl sailor.

		But, many recordings, successive "most valuable player" awards, a number one record ("Slice of Life"), four appearances on The Tonight Show, features on the Today Show, concert hall success and a growing demand for his master classes have proven his instincts correct.

		Unlike in MST3k, he doesn’t need permission from the owners of the movie to do it, which means he can take on larger, more mainstream and big-budget films that would never give their consent to a MST3k-style airing.
		Though this is the first I'm hearing of the idea, it's apparently something of a trend, complete with overactive fan base (with way too much time on their hands) and even software to aid in synchronization.
		For a good horror movie, everything needs to be there, including the writing (important for any movie, but horror films usually require a little more imagination), the characters, the acting, the cinematography, and the music, amongst many other aspects.
