Dead Avenger?


Holy Cr*p

An Avenger dies in Siege 2? Who? No don't tell me. I'll find out soon enough - it is out tomorrow.

2010 OSCAR NOMINATIONS

It is interesting this year. I have seen very few of the films that are up for an Oscar. Avatar and The Hurt Locker are both up for nine nominations each. Inglourious Basterds has eight. Of those three I have only seen Avatar. I guess I should make a point of seeing the other two!

Of the categories that interest me, we have:

Best Actor:

Morgan Freeman – "Invictus" (haven't seen but want to)
Jeff bridges – "Crazy Heart" (haven't seen and don't know much about it)
George Clooney – "Up in the Air" (quite keen to see, although heard mixed views)
Colin Firth – "A Single Man" (quite keen to see)
Jeremy Renner – "The Hurt Locker" (keen)

Best Picture:

“Avatar” James Cameron and Jon Landau, Producers
“The Blind Side” Nominees to be determined
“District 9” Peter Jackson and Carolynne Cunningham, Producers
“An Education” Finola Dwyer and Amanda Posey, Producers
“The Hurt Locker” Nominees to be determined
“Inglourious Basterds” Lawrence Bender, Producer
“Precious: Based on the Novel ‘Push’ by Sapphire” Lee Daniels, Sarah Siegel-Magness and Gary Magness, Producers
“A Serious Man” Joel Coen and Ethan Coen, Producers
“Up” Jonas Rivera, Producer
“Up in the Air” Daniel Dubiecki, Ivan Reitman and Jason Reitman, Producers

What do you think? Which film should win?
