[The Revelator]

Bring it on!

The Oscars are my drug. I follow this shit like a damn drug addict!

So many exciting possibilities this year... I'm thinking we will get a surprise nomination for Best Picture and it will be either Cloud Atlas or The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.

[HorrorMovieFan]

All acting categories have 2-3 frontrunners. I think we will be in for 2 or 3 surprises. Gonna be an exciting show I think.

Fuck yeah!! LOL!! I am hoping for The Hobbit. If it doesnt make it in that category, then I see it netting 5-7 technical categories.

Although I like the Oscars. Their opinion is generally extremely snobbish. I watch bits of it, but it really is film snobbery at it's finest if you ask me.

Me as well. I am a sucker for this shit. I just love the hypocritical and snobbish character and the behaviour of the protagonists, the Award Ceremony and the host, who hopefully will bring da ruckus this time. It is just fun to watch at, but don't you dare to make the mistake to take all that too damn serious.

I really don't know who will be the favorites this year. Iit might be Lincoln, because of the deep rooting in american history plus the fantastic performance by Daniel Day-Lewis.
I will cheer for The Hobbit, of course. I hope it will win at least Best Score.

Rich white folks patting each other on the back? Pass!

Dude, the trick is not to mind. Just watch it and enjoy their often facepalming behaviour.
The meaning of the Awards itself...well, since such schmaltz like The King's Speech can earn Best Picture and Best Screenplay, it isn't really a thing I can take any longer serious.

I think Lincoln and Zero Dark Thirty are going to be the favorites this year. Day Lewis' performance and the subject matter are big reasons. And, Zero Dark Thirty is another one with big history subject matter (no matter how it really happened) and an outstanding lead performance and I think Bigelow's direction easily beats out Spielberg's. But, this is also just my guess because they've been getting a lot of the talk as of late.

I did love them both, but I'd like to see something unpredictable happen.

What I'd really like to see is Django, Skyfall, Argo or End of Watch be up there. But, End of Watch definitely won't and the first two aren't the Academy's type. Argo could have a chance though.

Sorry if this statement offends anyone, but fuck the Academy. The last time I found them to be correct was when Christoph Waltz won best supporting actor in Inglorious Basterds, I find them extremely inaccurate and would love to know what dumbshit decided Jonah Hill should have got a nomination. I think pretty much all award shows are bullshit.
