Oscar Buzz

Well the nominations for the 2011 Academy Awards are now out so I figured I would run down my picks for the show. Who knows what will happen....But this is what I think.

Best Movie

Who will win: The Kings Speech
Who I want to win: The Social Network

Best Actress:

Who will Win: Annette Bening- The kids are alright
Who I want to win: Jennifer Lawrence-Winters bone
----We could still see Portman walking away with the win but for some reason i doubt that will happen.

Best Actor:

Who will win: Colin Firth
Who I want to win: Jesse EisenBerg
---This is a hard one, I would also like to see Jeff Bridges win but i still think the work that Jesse put into TSN was just stunning, you love and hate him in it plus the different character he played compared to his prior works is amazing. He is a young actor on the rise, which really does hurt him In my opinion here. The same really goes for James Franco as well, I just dont see the younger guys winning it.

Best Supporting Actress:

Who will win: Helena Bonham Carter
Who I want to win: Hailee Steinfeld
---The easy pick for me would have been AMy Adams I think, but at the same time i think its going to be a pretty big year for Kings Speech. But man Steinfeld was so amazing in True Grit.

Best Supporting Actor:

Who will win: Christian Bale
Who I want to win: John Hawkes
---This could still go to anyone really, I think this is the most wide open of the awards. But I think people respect Bale for what he did to himself for his role in the fighter and just showed what he can bring to his movies even if he isnt the real star. But I also think that John Hawkes will be over looked majority in this category. He was amazing in Winters Bone, but he might not of had enough screen time to really prove it(then again i loved every second he appeared in the film)

Best  Adapted Screenplay:

Who will win: The Social Network
Who I want to win: The Social network
----This one might still go to 127 Hours but I'm not too sure on it over all.

Best Animated film:

Who will win: Toy Story 3
Who I want to win: Toy Story 3
---I know alot of people enjoyed HTTYD but i really dont think it was better than TS3. but it was nice to see something a bit new versus something that we had already seen twice.

Best Foreign Film:

Who will win: Biutiful
Who I want to win: Biutiful
----Of course this is the hardest one to pick as ive seen the least amount of films from this category.

Best Director:

Who will win:Darren Aronfsky
Who I want to win: David Fincher
---Could this be the category that wins it for True Grit? No I dont really think so. But this one is a bit more open, I Could still see Fincher walking away with the win but something tells me he will not and that Darren will be the one to give a speech.

Best Original Screenplay:

Who will win:The Kings Speech
Who I want to win: Inception.
----Like i said above I really think this year will have a few wins for The Kings Speech, but I also believe this might be the area we finally see INception(the fanboys film) win something.
