FREEEEEEEEEEDOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM!!!...ahem, sorry, I meant to say Braveheart. On a similar note, I kinda always felt like Horner's Titanic Oscar was kind of a consolation prize - the Academy's way of saying, (in a shamed demeanor) "Here you go, sorry about the whole Braveheart thing. Yeah, we know! We don't really know what we were thinking either. But here, just go ahead and take this one - yeah, ok, sure it's four years late...but it's still just as pretty and shiny though. Right?!"

Horner's Oscar for Titanic was no consolation prize. While the majority of the music was, ahem, watered-down versions of his previous scores, the themes were great and having that awful song as its, ahem, anchor did not hurt it's chances at winning. Consolation prize = Russell Crowe's Oscar for Gladiator
