2010 has been the best year in movies in a while

obv nolan gets a snub for best director, and i dont like tom hooper's nomination, even though i just watched the king's speech and rather enjoyed it, the directing was nothing special, same with the cohen brothers w/ true grit.  black swan, the fighter and social network were all wonderfully directed

OG Jaydc:
Why would they snub Nolan?

Chamillitary Click:
I hate awards so much. They infuriate me. Just because a bunch of 60 year olds, who couldn't even keep up with Inception don't understand, it'll likely walk away with nothing.

It's also stupid because I feel like they don't even award people for the movie, but more what the movie is about. I was watching the Golden Globes & "The Kids Are Alright" won quite a bit. Average ass movie. But the plot is two lesbians are raising kids & they meet the father. Some fucking unusual, dramatic bullshit & they get recognition for being different, not being good.

The only movies I haven't seen out of "Best Picture" are The King's Speech & Winter's Bone & I'm convinced Inception was EASILY the best movie. I don't hate the fact that the The Social Network likely will win, that was a great movie. But then to not even have Nolan up for best director, is madness.

It's gay too because if you had the general public vote for it, Inception would win by 100,000 votes.

Actually I read a couple years ago that a lot of these really old timers an big wigs don't really watch or vote on anything and have their personal assistants do it.

Javier:
I like the Academy Awards because there are those rare times that it gives some recognition to lesser known films and it might get more people to see it.  Winter's Bone, Dogtooth, Exit Through the Gift Shop are all some really great movies that needs more exposure.  I've actually heard about The Illusionist before, but now I'm pretty eager to see it.
