Murray reportedly told Channel4.com, the website for the London based television station, �I'm over the Oscar. Sometimes people win it and you think, 'This can't be true.' It's a little bit of a popularity contest, too. Sometimes it's right, but it's wrong just as often, so I don't care. I'd rather make movies that lots of people saw and liked. I'm happy with the results."

He also took aim at those who seem to campaign for the �honor� of winning an Oscar, "It's a really unattractive sight to see an actor or actress who really wants an Oscar. And you often see it on the show, you see their faces and the desperation is so ugly. Desperation is not a quality I long for."

Many expect Murray to win the Best Actor Oscar to go along with the New York Film Critics Circle and the Boston Society of Film Critics awards he has already received for his role in "Lost in Translation".
