Black Swan is going to kill the awards. artsy movie which the Award shows love. personally i watched it for the hot sex scene!

[mtneer1212]

The King's Speech will do very well, and I expect Colin firth to win.

[Beatles]

Jesse Eisenberg in "The Social Network"

are you kidding me? this is going to be one of the worst years for the Oscars in a very long time. I can't remember a worse list of films up for Best Picture

[Glitch]

seen most of those but not black swan or a couple others. social networks been a favorite on the books for a while but i dont see how anything beats inception this year for best picture.

[brooks85]

what a bad year for movies.

[Rod1010]

127 hours

[leafsfan19]

Inception won't win best picture because it got snubbed on best director hard...nolan should be up there.. but ya that movie rocked. and JESUS FKIN CHRIST, The Social Network was NOT that good, and Jesse Eisenberg is a huge load of shit as an actor.

[Beatles]

i can't believe Jesse Eisenberg got an academy award nomination for Best Actor for that performance .

WHAT THE FUK IS HAPPENING!!???

[dwaechte]

I thought Jesse Eisenberg did well, but the role was horrible..

[MartinBlank]

The Social Network was awesome, and so was True Grit.

But The Fighter would be my pick for best movie.

[Beatles]

Critics trying to put The Social Network on the level of The Godfather

how dare you disrespect

[JOHON8]

Kings Speech with 12 nominations, the one with the biggest chance to win is Best Actor, this movie would not even make the Oscars without Colin Firth. Yes the line is juiced like hell but it's not going to lose...

Upsets:
Best picture Kings Speech. Globes gave Avatar the wrong award last year, Oscars gave Hurt Locker justice, same thing could happen here.

I'd like to say Rush wins supporting role but Bale has killed his body enough times to be given an Oscar.

( and ive watched basically everything ) maybe its because i wasnt alive when people rode horses but that movies sucked. i tried to watch it three times. i TRIED to watch it but i couldnt. everytime i turned it off and got on here. it sucks im sorry but it does

[DwightShrute]

"Black Swan," not bad. over rated- but great lesbian scene
"The Fighter" never seen it but can't wait to
"Inception," loved it
"The Kids Are All Right," haven't seen it yet
"The King's Speech," watched it last night - really good
"127 Hours," Saw it Sunday - well done - can't believe he dies in the end!
"The Social Network," stupid as hell - I can't believe it's even nominated
"Toy Story 3" never seen it
"True Grit" never seen it but can't wait to
"Winter's Bone" well acted - liked it a lot

[pronk]

2 lesbian films are nominated for oscars! What the hell is wrong with Hollywood people? Damn dykes

[mr. leisure]

Pretty week year overall for great movies

[Jericholic]

I really liked True Grit, probably won't win though.

[Glitch]

couldnt sit through the king's speech.

[pennsylvania209]

True Grit wins best pix.

[uva3021]

Black Swan is 50/1 to win at BetUS

+EV?

[mtneer1212]

True Grit will not win Best Picture ..... the academy doesn't mind sequels (i.e. The Color of Money), but are not high on remakes.

[pronk]

This psychedelic "Inception" is looking good.

[nyed1010]

hating on the social network and the Eisenberg/Zuckerburg character??? Did you guys see the movie? You may hate facebook, but that movie and Eisenberg's performance was top notch and I believe oscar nomination worthy. One head scratcher for me was Jeremy Renner? I don't know about that one, he was great in the hurt locker, not sure about the town though. Even for a supporting role, he wasn't even on screen that much in the town.

[LordVodka]

Since last year they expanded the Best Picture category to include more movies. I'll tell you which movies on that list have no chance : Toy Story 3, Inception, Winter's Bone, The Kids are All Right and 127 Hours.

The most realistic winner is The King's Speech.

[Mr. Jones]

So what happened to The Town? Best picture I've seen in years.

[uva3021]

the town put me to sleep, plot holes a plenty, and it insists upon itself

[N.O.S.]

How come Biutiful wasn't nominated?



Excellent movie!!!

The King's Speech will win the Oscar.

[Grits n' Gravy]

winter bone will get a lot of late love like hurt locker.
