Academy Award for Original Screenplay?

Rating: 8/10 (22 February 2008)

Does it bother anyone that Diablo Cody is winning an award for Best Original Screenplay, when in fact, it's a Korean remake from the film "Jeni, Juno" about the same exact subject. I thought the movie was great, don't get me wrong, but when it's not an original idea, than own up to it. Am I wrong here? I can see how it could seen as "original" because of the dialog and names but when an idea is very similar than you have to give credit where credit is due. Great example here is last year's best picture, "The Departed." This was a great movie, but not a very good screenplay. Watch it again and you may agree on where some holes are. That's beside the point. The point is that it's a remake even though he created the new English dialog. I could be nit picking here, but I don't think so. If something is not yours, you shouldn't claim it to be. Fess up here Diablo, that's all I'm asking.
