Even though I think Avatar was a far superior movie to Titanic, we'll have to wait and see if the Academy will buy that premise again.Mohsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10862725239683079735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1219469017864992936.post-27887396240270324072010-03-06T22:01:28.114-08:002010-03-06T22:01:28.114-08:00I think Hurt Locker will get the Original Screenpl...I think Hurt Locker will get the Original Screenplay (WGA winner). I also think White Ribbon will prevail. I really hope Avatar wins the best picture. When a movie sells this much tickets it means majority of people liked it. Who are those few thousand Academy members to argue with these numbers? But again Hurt Locker has won all the awards so far (except for Golden Globe).Arminnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1219469017864992936.post-30630722880850044582010-03-06T19:41:34.525-08:002010-03-06T19:41:34.525-08:00The thought about the email fiasco occurred to me ...The thought about the email fiasco occurred to me too, but if I recall correctly, the news became widespread while there was only a few days left for the Academy voters to vote. Many had probably already sent in their ballots by that time.<br /><br />Somebody told me today that Richard Roeper said the battle of Best Actress is going to be between Streep and Mulligan, because both were excellent in their roles, and it would incredibly unfair if Bullock wins, because of all the crap she usually plays in. So your prediction of Streep (or my hope on Mulligan!) may come out true.Mohsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10862725239683079735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1219469017864992936.post-53390316786620184522010-03-06T16:56:47.365-08:002010-03-06T16:56:47.365-08:00I wasn't thinking there was much controversy i...I wasn't thinking there was much controversy in probable winners, but your predictions have made things interesting! Your guess is as good as mine -- no, probably better. But there are two differences which I feel worth mentioning:<br /><br />Best film: Avatar <br />(The "Hurt Locker" producer hurt their chances with the stupid email fiasco, so they'll probably have to pay by losing at least one of the two main awards; Bigelow will probably get best director)<br /><br />Best actress: StreepMohihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07384932802114646604noreply@blogger.com
