My personal opinion...I do not care for what's being churned out in so-called Hollywood these days, so I'm not up to par on what the latest movies are, so there's no point in my watching the Oscars. Personally, I think it's a waste of time. Other then the British films, I can't see anything being produced today worth watching - much less being 'awarded' anything! But again, that's my own personal opinion.

The Blind Side is a wonderful true story. Good script, heartwarming story, and Sandra Bullock deserves to win, I don;t think she's ever won. What a performance. There's also two great actors from Precious. Now, i didn't like the movie at all..gritty, dark, depressing. But I need to say that Gabbie Sidibe and Mo'Nique who are up for Oscars, also deserve them. You feel it's way real when you watch them. Two terrific actors. Also, i'm pulling for Jeff Bridges in Crazy Heart. He's always been a great actor, never won and really delivers in the movie as a down and out, raw country singer on his last leg of his life. I see a lot of merit in these, and I enjoy people who i really admire have their moment in their craft.
