I wanted Mickey Rourke to win soooo bad (but Sean Penn was cool though lol.)

But I also must say that it must have been the best Oscar show in a while, that Seth Rogen and James Franco sketch was so funny lmao. :laugh:

I know this is a bit early, but I'm excited! ;)

Not that much to post yet except the one single confirmed thing, which is the host...

Quote
"Family Guy" funnyman Seth MacFarlane - whose recent foray into the movie-making world as actor, writer and director, "Ted," was both a box office and critical success - has been tapped by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to host the Oscars on Feb. 24.

MacFarlane issued a tongue-in-cheek statement of playful gratitude on the news, saying "It’s truly an overwhelming privilege to be asked to host the Oscars. My thoughts upon hearing the news were, one, I will do my utmost to live up to the high standards set forth by my predecessors; and two, I hope they don’t find out I hosted the Charlie Sheen Roast.

And I think seth will do good......He'll be like the ricky gervais of the Oscars :p

Trouble with the curve for wild card? love clint......but nah

let's see how good Lincoln is, lincoln is arguably my favorite figure from history... Spielberg is Spielberg but he best not disappoint.

I wish I could start guessing but there's literally nI single movie I've seen yet :no:

Except for Ted, but it'd be a disgrace if that won any Oscars..

I have been following Lincoln (Joe), Django (Leo), and Silver Linings (Bradley AND Jennifer) intensely though.

One of those to win some would be great!

Les Mis and The Master are also movies I'm looking forward too!

No clue who the Guardian is?? But I read somewhere(cant remember where) that Universal is pushing for Hugh Jackman to get a nom. for Best Actor, Anne Hathaway for Best Supporting, and Russell Crowe for Best Supporting Actor. I agree more with that if they follow the book Anne isn't in enough of it to get a Best Actress nod.

Just from trailers, Les Mis and Lincoln look great. Not so sure about Seth but he can't be as awful as James Franco was :baronlamesign:

I think Argo has a chance of sweeping through. I watched it and it is fantastic. I think Ben deserves a nom for Director.

I've also heard a lot of buzz about Mary Elizabeth Winstead in her new movie called Smashed. They are saying she could come out of nowhere on this one. And I hope so she's a fantastic and underrated actress.

I'm looking forward to Silver Linings and Lincoln. And who isn't excited for Django Unchained. Like Inglorious I can see that getting a lot of Academy consideration.
