Hurt Locker = Charles Woodson
Avatar = Peyton Manning I haven't seen either movie, but too many people thought about this too long. |

Sad but probably true.

I don't see that at all. On most prediction sites it was in 3rd behind Avatar and Hurt Locker, with it being the only movie with a chance of beating them. Its movies like Blind Side and District 9 that you wouldn't see in a normal year.

Maybe its just my opinion getting in the way though, I though Inglorious Basterds was the best movie of the year. I think Hurt Locker mostly won because a lot of people didn't really want Avatar winning because it was so trite, and that was the movie that got rallied around. |

I'll take the absolute DENIAL of anything precious as a consolation prize.

It's a popularity contest. That fact doesn't change no matter what picture wins, good or bad. And Hurt locker has been the hot pick for months. It's not a surprise at all.
I think it's good. Maybe more people will see the movie (like me - I still haven't and I've wanted to for almost a year now). It's not like Avatar is going to have to give back any of the 2.5 billion dollars it's grossed. |

I just like that a Star Trek film won an Oscar. I don't care that it was makeup or whatever. A Star Trek film won an Oscar. It's like bizarroworld.

I looked it up and II, IV, VI and First Contact were nominated for stuff but didn't win anything.

Pretty cool if true.
