I was glad to see Ruffalo get a supporting actor nomination (not that I think he will win). Even though I was let down by that movie, I thought he deserved one. I was also glad to see "teardrop" from Winter's Bone get one. |

Is The Kids Are Alright on dvd yet? That and the Fighter are the only ones left I need to see.
I'm gonna have to try to see Biutiful and Winter's Bone, maybe. MAYBE 127 hours, but doubtful.

I keep reading Mila Kunis was "snubbed" but quite frankly I was surprised she was nominated for the Globes in the first place. I thought she was great and sexy but it never crossed my mind during that whole movie (which I loved everything about) that her performance was award-worthy.
I'd like to try and see some of the docs as well. I have Restrepo and Exit Through the Gift Shop both on my Netflix.
I should try to get to the theater and see True Grit.
Oddly enough, I have not an ounce of interest in The Social Network (which will probably win). [Edited 1/25/11 9:55am] |

I really want Jennifer Lawrence to win. She was amazing. But I'll be almost equally happy if Michelle Williams gets it, because she is probably the best American actress of her generation, and she deserves to be recognized. For actor, I'm pretty sure it's Colin Firth's year.
I think it's a shame Nolan wasn't nominated for director, mostly because I think he deserves it for directing that movie, which entailed a huge vision. But I don't think Inception was the best picture by any means, so I'd much rather have it not be nominated in that category. |

I want Lawrence or Portman for actress.
I reeeeeeeeally don't want Annette to win this year even though I thought she did a lovely job.
It will feel like one of those "It's her time" awards to me if she does. |

I loved The Kids Are All Right, but it's not Oscar-worthy, imo. It's just a very good, nice, pleasant film to watch that I enjoyed very much (I know you didn't like it that much). It bugs me when good films get overblown. Inception was that way to me too; awesome visuals and a visionary step in many ways, but it was a full-on mess o' gobbledygook as far as story goes. And why reward that? |

Will add The Kids and Winter's Bone to my Netflix immediately.
Agree about Mila. She was good, but definitely not an Oscar worthy performance.
And you really should see True Grit.

Black Swan
True Grit
The Social Network
The King's Speech
Inception
Alice in Wonderland
Harry Potter
I'm pretty ahead of the game this year. I may need to see Blue Valentine too... |

I'm just being contrary. Every so often, there's a book or film that comes along that everyone's all about and I go just on GP.
For example, I've never seen ET. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. |

I would pick on you for that, but I've never seen The Wizard of Oz. So there! |

For once, the Oscar committee gets it right. That was a masterful performance by Cage. |

If Jeff Bridges wins the Oscar, then the Academy deserves to die. John Wayne did the same role BETTER... (and I don't like John Wayne and I think that many times his acting was pretty random, but boy, he nailed it on the original True Grit)
anyway, 2011 Oscars = I hope Toy Story 3 wins it all, and that's about it |
