83rd Annual Academy Awards

Regarding director, Nolan was snubbed, again. They should just pencil him in as the best director for TDK Rises.

Unless by some longshot he Spider-Man 3's it, that's likely what will happen. Like with Lord of the Rings.

Damn, The Social Network didn't get the major ones. One of my favourite films, that's how screenplay writing ought to be done. Shame Franco didn't get his ;x I got all the others ;o

Yeah the Academy can't make it the Inception Awards.

You mean like it had the Titanic Awards and the Silence of the Lambs Awards? Inception was in my opinion head and shoulders above every other movie released last year, so yeah I was hoping for the Inception Awards.

So glad King's Speech won. I would have lost a bet and had to finally join Facebook after years and years of resistance. I declared KS as the winner this year as I was walking out of the theater last month so I was fairly confident in my bet.

I was really hoping that True Grit would win adapted screenplay. Every sentence of dialogue was so rich and tasty. I wished that I wrote that movie.

As for Exit Through the Gift Shop, I am happy that it lost. As I was watching the movie, I had the same feeling that I had when watching "Catfish." I wasn't watching a documentary, I was watching a mockumentary. Both movies started with the premise that "I'm just a regular guy who likes to film every mundane moment in my life." Then -surprise, surprise- some unexpected event happens in these people's lives and the camera is magically on to capture every amazing plot twist.

Only award I really cared about was original score and I'm glad social network won.

Everything else was pretty exepected.
