OK I didn't offer mine up either.
I missed a lot of the films this year so I could speak up about them all. But does anyone have any thoughts on the results? Personally I was surprised but happy that Avatar did NOT sweep. Sandra Bullock unfortunately was an embarrassingly obvious choice as Best Actress in her "down home" role, frankly even she seemed a bit embarrassed about. If she hadn't shown such humility in her speech I probably would be annoyed, but good for her I guess. Mo'Nique-she deserved the supporting actor, she was awesome in that movie. I thought it was great that Preciou) got such attention, I think the director, Lee Daniel could have gotten some more recognition but overall the film was recognized favorably. I mean even Mariah Carey was good in it!And of course everyone recognized Gabourey Sidibe for her first time role. Was also happy to see that Jeff Bridges won. He has had a long winding career and many a great role and both Pfeifers speech about him and his acceptance speech only further enforced my belief that he deserved it Christoph Waltz was a shoe-in for supporting male actor, charismatic villains tend to get that. But Stanley Tucci looks like he gave a good performance in The Lovely Bones..another movie I did not see, I also did not See The Hurt Locker so I can't comment on it winning best picture. From what I've seen it looks like direction and editing might keep it interesting. I did not expect it to win "best Original Screenplay " though, I can help but feel that "Inglorious Baterds" got ripped off in this category. All the documentaries look amazing and heartbreaking, I have yet to see them but will try to track them down. Star Trek won for Best Make up, I thought that was lame. I thought the The New Tenants would win for short film but all the shorts were amazing. The Foreign Language films all look like they blow away our films but I will either seem them on re-release or on DVD. All in all I thought the Awards were fast but often filled with stupid sh!t. Martin and Baldwin were surprisingly entertaining and the whole stage and set of ceremony seemed a bit of a throw back to the awards of another era but with modern twists. The main thing I noticed was way less attention on all the hard workers behind the scenes, I mean completely omitted at this ceremony! And also the actor nomination has other actors telling stories about the others that were nominated, it was ok but they could have said less, sometimes (in the case of Colin Farrel) it was just awkwardly too long. Also, Maybe I went to the bathroom, but I seemed to miss the Lifetime achievement awards which they definitely made less of a deal of. The awards ceremony itself had an increase in viewership this year. I'm not sure what that means except that it was on a Sunday Night and everyone is broke. There were some good moments this past year but I hope this coming year proves to be more fruitful in the world of Movies. Here's a quick BreakDown of it all Oscar Winners 2010 - (In televised categories)
