Inception shouldn't have won for Cinematography, Steinfeld should have won for Supporting Actress, and Douglas was excruciating to watch. That is all

Your opinion would probably carry more weight if your comment indicated you had so much as seen it

God, these Oscars are so predictable...

Winters Bone or Toy Story 3 should be Best Picture, but The Kings Speech is a lock... which is a good movie, no doubt, but best pic?

Wow, all this love for How To Train Your Dragon? I found it boring, predictable mass media nonsense about being yourself and such...

Toy Story 3 made me cry... its about moving on, about loss and the pain and jubilation of growing up... and about finding a new purpose when life takes a turn...

But whatever... people like what they like...

It was very good, probably the best dreamworks animated movie since Shrek. Toy Story 3 is better through.

It's kind weird how terriblly reviewed movies can still win Oscar's by doing one thing well. I mean not that there's a problem with it, but it's kinda weird to see The Fighter, Inception, The King's speech, The Social Network, etc and then all of a sudden The Wolfman

Good thing I missed this... although I did see the original movie... however, I have read that the Cohen Brothers version follows the book much more closely and I have never read the book...

Wolfman won for make up though. Its not like last year had a substantial list of movies that used make up to the point of wolfman. So that one was a given.

Alice in Wounderland was okay, and for Wolfman as I mentioned terrible movies can sometimes do one thing well. Even though it kinda does throw off the pace (I mean really one of these things is not like the other: The King's Speech, Inception, The Social Netowork, The Fighter, and the Wolfman)

I adore The Wolfman, it perfectly captured the fun factor of those cheesy 1940s movies.

All I wanted for tonight was for Trent Reznor and The Wolfman to win:D
