Here are my pics based on what I know.

Best Picture - A Serious Man - I don't care if they did let District9 and Avatar play in the sandbox, the academy is predictable

Best Director - Bigelow for Hurt Locker - Iraq is chique.

Best Actor - Jeff Bridges for Crazy Heart - predictable

Best Actress - Meryl Streep for Julie & Julia - again predictable

Best Supporting Actor - Woody Harrelson for The Messenger - just my gut feeling

Best Supporting Actress - Mo Nique for Precious - predictable

Best Original AND Adapted Screenplays - No clue - I don't know the logic behind those

Best Animated Feature - The Fantastic Mr. Fox - It'll win because it's "artsy"

Best Documentary and Foreign Films - No Clue. I am an average American, we're like that.

Best Cinematography - The Hurt Locker - same reason as before

Best Art Direction, Costume, everything down to Sound Editing - No clue - I'm predictable

Best Visual Effects - Avatar - oh come on. Besides, it's likely to be the ONLY one they win.

The last 3 categories are sadly, irrelevant to me ;)

Lets see how I do.

We saw Hurt Locker last night and for the life of me, I cannot figure out why that movie was nominated. I'm just assuming it will be a sweep by Avatar, so I'm not too interested in much of the Oscars. But on the plus side, Sandra Bullock's dress is awesome.

I'm not really watching. I liked the best picture noms, but I just don't care this year about pomp.
Oh, and why didn't Woody get the nod for Zombieland instead of The Messenger?!

Goiter and I are watching the awards. He's too upset to post the following, so I will do it for him:

Henry Gibson didn't make the tribute.

And we were forced to listen to a James Taylor cover of a Beatles song.

It happenned in the middle of the night for me.

Was it the usual pile of indulgent tosh, hilariously insincere speeches drowned out by the band, awkward attempts at comedy by presenters and more focus on who is wearing what than the art of filmaking?

It is a great achievement for Kathryn Bigelow winning as the Best Director for her movie The Hurt Locker in Academy Award and that being the first woman to win is really much appreciated. In addition to that this movie also wins as Best picture—the biggest award in the Oscars. The wins for other awards were fairly quiet – as Jeff Bridges win on his fifth nomination for Best Actor was conspicuous, as was Christoph Waltz taking Best Supporting Actor, the first Oscar win for an actor in a Tarantino film.

Now that Bigelow has won it, it seems strange that it has taken this long for a woman to win it.

Loved The Hurt Locker, loved Strange Days, I still think that Point Break is one of the best examples of it's type.

I also have a weak spot for some of Mimi Leder's work as well. The Peacemaker is a particular guilty favourite of mine.
