2010 Award Thread - "Be warned, Knighthawk be in here"

Is Avatar really deserving of best picture? Technologically, it's pretty damn impressive and if it wins awards there, then it really deserves it. But I've seen Best Director, Best Picture...is it really seen as anything more than a by the numbers Hollywood action film?

Also, just out of curiosity, has anyone seen the Informant? Any good?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I was really surprised The Hurt Locker got the snub. Tarantino is used to being snubbed I suppose. Both of those films were better than Avatar, and it's a shame that they didn't recognized for it.

Though, I'm happy Up in the Air didn't win much, since it was most definitely worse than Avatar.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I'm really surprised Where the Wild Things are got completely snubbed. Yeah, it wasn't the best movie, but if anything I thought they'd get a nod for the amazing animation/suit...magic or whatever they did for the Wild Things themselves. Oh well, time to do my annual, peruse through the award nominations and see the ones that look interesting. I figure, the winners always piss people off, but at least some of the nominations are really good films.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
