lame, the hurl locker doesn't deserve oscars. and IB deserves more.

No major surprises in this annual awards this year ...
Hurt locker was expected to collect most of the rewards ... maybe Americans needed such a movie for a moral boost ...
but overall I don't think this movie deserved all this, Direction was great can't deny it, but concerning sound effects and editing i can't judge those :P

Inglorious Basterds deserved best original screenplay at least if not best motion picture

Colin Firth in his role "A serious man" deserved the oscar in my opinion

Sandra bullock was great and deserved the oscar (the best part I enjoyed it)

Avatar prizes were more than enough

Hosts steve Martin and Alic Baldwin were hilarious and made the ceremony described as dull worth seeing

Thank You ...
