It's my favorite time of the year. It's Oscar season! For the first time since some time in the 1940's there are ten noms for best picture this year. Every other category still has five, but like it said in an earlier post, 2009 was a great year for movies. It was hard for me to pick just five in my best of list, and you might notice that some of my picks are in the Best Picture category. Here's the list of nominees for Best Picture.
Avatar
The Blind Side
District 9
An Education
The Hurt Locker
Inglorious Basterds
Precious: Based on the novel 'Push' by 'Sapphire'
A Serious Man
Up
Up in the Air
That is a tough list to choose from. Having seen all of the movies on the list except for The Blind Side, A Serious Man, and An Education (I've never even heard of that one) I gotta say this is a great list. If I had to choose though I would have to go with Quentin Tarantino's masterpiece Inglorious Basterds. I know that may surprise some of you thinking I would have chose Avatar, but James Cameron is nominated in the Best Director category, and he deserves it more than any director has ever deserved and Oscar. Most likely Avatar will win for both though. Later I will be posting the noms for some of the other categories, I just wanted to get the big one out of the way. What are your thoughts on the Oscar noms? Let me know in the comment box, or if you follow me on twitter or facebook let me know there.
one luv, Toinne
