Yes. Because every member of the Academy gets to vote for Best Picture. Period. And yes, he'd still get to nominate in those other categories. And I still think everybody gets to *vote* in all the categories, too, but maybe I'm wrong on that particular point.
Yep I know that...every member of the AMPAS gets to vote for Best Picture regardless of your occupation...
HOWEVER...only actors get to vote for Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress! And only directors get to vote for Best Director...and writers for Best Screenplay(s) etc...
The smaller categories are only open to those whom has won in those categories...so Ang Lee can now vote for Best Director and Best Picture but cannot vote for Best Actor...he didn't win an acting Oscar...therefore he doesn't have that voting power...
Make sense? I know that for sure...but my only question was because Jackson won for Best Screenplay AND Best Director...does he get to vote in both those categories...and then of course Best Picture (which I already know he gets to vote in)....
I should have been more clear...sorry..
