Yes, I know, this is such fluff...but hey, who doesn't need to relax and just think about the Academy Awards. Don't lie, I know you're dieing to sit back and critique those red carpet snafus. So grab your popcorn..wine and cheese, or whatever, and watch the show.
So for full disclosure, I'm going to say that the only movie I've seen that is on the list is The Social Network..and only cuz it was on the airplane coming back from vacation. Lately, going to the movies has been more of a bother to me...so I usually wait until they all come out to video.
So with that, I'm going on guess work here and on who some of my favorite actors are. Of course I've seen enough trailers for all of these movies ..so know a "little" about them. I'm also only gonna pick the three top choices...do you really care about the sound editing award?...and while I'm on that..why is it always those obscure award winners that thank everyone from birth to that moment. I digress...Here goes:
Best Actress: I'm going with Natalie Portman. I've loved this actress since she warmed my heart playing the old and wise beyond years young girl in the movie Beautiful Girls. I thought watching that years ago that she was going to go places..and here she is.
Annette Bening, "The kids are alright",
Nicole Kidman, "Rabbit Hole"
Jennifer Lawrence, "Winter's Bone"
Natalie Portman, "The Black Swan" *** My pick
Michelle Williams, "Blue Valentine
Best Actor: I'm going with Colin Firth on this one. I loved him in one of my favorite and quirky movies Bridget Jones Diary, and just watched him in " A Single Man"...just love him.
Javier Bardem, "Biutiful"
Jeff Bridges, "True Grit"
Jesse Eisenberg, "The Social Network"
Colin Firth, "The Kings Speech" *** My pick
James Franco, "127 Hours"
Best Movie: I'm going to take a stab at it being between "The kids are alright", and "The Kings Speech", but going with the King's Speech"
The other nominies are "The Black Swan", "The Fighter","Inception", "127 Hours", "The Social Network", "Toy Story 3" (odd one there), "True Grit", and "Winter's Bone.
So what are YOUR picks for the winners?
