i havent seen both yet, though i'm looking more forward to the hurt locker. avatar seems so overhyped.
I've seen Avatar, but not Hurt Locker. Kinda surprised, really. I figured it'd probably get a lot of advertising if it was that good.
lol how good a movie is isn't based on how much money they spend on promotions and advertising. Avatar got the awards it deserved, and nothing more. I liked Inglourious Basterds more than Hurt Locker, but I realise that that's probably because I'm in a minority who really appreciates Tarantino. Good to see the Academy didn't cave into peer pressure from the moronic movie going public that actually thought Avatar was a good movie.
tarantino is one of my favorite directors, and IB is one of the few movies i've actually seen in the theaters. but i think this is his worst movie, i'm not saying i dont like it, i still loved it but comparing to this others...
The Hurt Locker really stole the show; what a fantastic film though Basterds truly was the film of the year. Tarantino, as pretentious and narcissistic as he may be, is an excellent writer and director. If not Best Picture, he should have at least left with Directing. It's a shame, however, that District 9 didn't walk away with a win in any of its nominated categories (forgive me if it was only nominated under one category, I failed to watch the Oscars this year due to a series of unfortunate mishaps). I didn't predict it to, but it should have. Oh well, it is, after all, the Oscars.
Knew Avatar would be up there. Wouldn't have imagined Up though but I do recognise it's visual features.
