That's it for Hurt Locker (and Precious). Them winning awards already pretty much signals neither is getting best picture.

This isn't ign. Where best xbox 360/best playstation 3 game wins the award. ANd then suddenly a multiplat always wins game of the year. I would imagine if avatar doesn't win any awards it won't win best picture.

[-COOLIO-]

"bonjourno"

still cracks me up

 

[Shard]

I wouldn't mind watching some Robocop.

 

[LM4sure]

what are you rooting for?

Do you have to ask?

 

[brianjones]

we got us a cameron here who wants to die for pandora

Hurt Locker - obliiiiiiiiiiiige him

 

[threenote]

Inglorious Basterds is such an awesome movie.

 

[Gilgamesh]

Bowie is awesome, Tarantino is awesome.

 

[Chamber]

lol at the people condemning the Oscars because the Hurt Locker is winning. What is this bizarro world?

GAF is in the bag for Tarantino.

 

[Fatalah]

Inglourious Basterds -- I just wish Brad Pitt's role was recast. And a few of his Basterds.

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

You havent seen Robocop? How old are you? Netflix it nooooooooooooooooooooow.

And try and get the unrated version.

Spoiler

I'd buy that for a dollar!

 

[Gary Whitta]

Anyone else think Hugo Stiglitz should get his own prequel spin-off movie?

 

[The Elite]

Seconded *high five*

 

[GhaleonEB]

Only Tarantino could get away with rewriting history? Clearly Travolta never saw Braveheart.

Or any movie based on real events that Hollywood has ever made.

 

[thefro]

Hurt Locker for Best Picture now ? :O

I think it's still pretty wide open with 10 different nominees.

 

[Jon]

Robocop! How could you not know that? for shame

I've always wanted to see Robocop! For shame, indeed. I will Netflix it now for sure!

Spoiler

Really?

 

[Tobor]

Only Tarantino could get away with rewriting history? Clearly Travolta never saw Braveheart.

Or The Passion.

 

[NomarTyme]

You havent seen Robocop? How old are you? Netflix it nooooooooooooooooooooow.

I think the TV version cut that part out.. they cut lot of shit out.

I've always wanted to see Robocop! For shame, indeed. I will Netflix it now for sure!

SHAME!

 

[Lionel Mandrake]

If Basterds won, I would be so happy. But alas, I just don't see it happening.

 

[Monocle]

I hope I don't miss anything good if I pop out for 15 mins.

 

[DeathbyVolcano]

I would be thrilled if Inglorious Basterds runs away with the Oscar. But it won't. :'(

 

[Ripclawe]

:lol :lol :lol Holy shit, what is this from? I can't believe I haven't seen this yet!

HEATHEN!!!!

GO watch Robocop now

 

[Nameless]

Only Tarantino could get away with rewriting history? Clearly Travolta never saw Braveheart.

Or The Passion of the Christ...


edit: beaten. :lol



















:lol

 

[Fatalah]

Or The Passion.

Or The Dark Knight. We all know what *REALLY* happened.

 

[Schmattakopf]

"bonjourno"

BONGERNO.

 

[WrikaWrek]

Me me me me me me

 

[Takao]

Don't get me wrong, Transformers was a terrible, terrible, terrible film but it totally deserved that last sound category.

The Academy hates Bay, Science Fiction, and the idea that you can create a narrative based on a toy. The Transformers movies were nominated for three Oscars (all technical), and has lost each of them to a non sci-fi movie. Part of me really hopes that Bay makes a master piece with TF3 just so that they can't just pretend it doesn't exist.

 

[joeyjoejoeshabadoo]

Or The Passion.

He said history.

Spoiler

I kid.

 

[h3ro]

BONGERNO.

GORLAAAAAAAAAMI.

 

[LM4sure]

I would be thrilled if Inglorious Basterds runs away with the Oscar. But it won't. :'(

Uhhh yeah! I'd be happy if Up won for best picture...or any other film other than The Hurt Locker or Avatar.

 

[ckohler]

Cameron is probably pissed that he's only getting mentions for his high tech contributions and not his film's acting and/or story.

Not that I don't blame everyone for it.

 

[NumberTwo]

IB - best montage yet. I've seen the movie so many times and is still gives me chills.

 

[Fox the Sly]

Guys. I never saw Inglorious Basterds. Seems like an awesome movie too. :'(

 

[GhaleonEB]

Hurt Locker sweep was on the second it won screenplay over Basterds.

 

[zerodayPopbot]

I really need to see Inglorious Basterds.

 

[Gilgamesh]

I think the Hurt Locker is the better movie, but I would be totally okay with Inglorious Basterds winning best picture.

 

[soundscream]

I think the TV version cut that part out.. they cut lot of shit out.




SHAME!

It's a lock for best SFX.

 

[Mgoblue201]

Sound is absolutely integral to a war movie, and The Hurt Locker was absolutely deserving of those two awards. I jumped over 30 spots in the pool on that fact alone.

 

[MIMIC]

That's it for Hurt Locker (and Precious). Them winning awards already pretty much signals neither is getting best picture.

If even if neither wins, this still makes no sense.

 

[thedrizzle34]

is anyone else streaming the UK SkyMovies oscar coverage? During commercials they show 2-3 ads then some ridiculous commentary from people in a studio like halftime at sporting event. It's very odd.

 

[Blablurn]

4:33 am

i'm feeling good but avatar needs more oscars.

 

[Gary Whitta]

I really hope this Jamie Oliver show finds an audience.

 

[Shanadeus]

Jamie oliver's food revolution in america!

I've been wanting to see it as well. Waiting for the $10 Black Friday Blu-Ray sale.

 

[Nameless]

V baby!!

Elizabeth Mitchell is needed in my life at all times.

 

[DarkJC]

You're missing out!

Wont happen unless another director is at the helm

What made the Transformers movies shine were the animators, sound designers, artists, and the talent behind the transformer voices (baring the twins.)
