Personally I'm not a fan of the Oscars, or should I say, I find most of the winners somewhat unsatisfying. Maybe I have a poor taste in movies, since they're the professionals at judging and all. I find it sad that Cloud Atlas was forgotten from every single category. I wasn't expecting a best picture nom of course but seeing that it lost to Snow White in visual effects and didn't even get a nom for any of the music categories (for one of these: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HZHlTcEDUU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17zgrCPEb78 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-5ndt3l67g http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dr20oqr-eEk Among others. I particularly liked the OST) Left me quite disappointed. Sometimes feels like I'm one of the few people who truly liked the movie. My prediction when it comes to winners is that Lincoln will take the most wins, with Ang Lee stealing the Best Directing category from Spielberg and Tarantino for his achievement in Life of Pi. In the animated movie category I hope Paranorman or Wreck it Ralph take the prize. I don't feel like Brave deserves the win this year, regardless of how amazing its visuals were.
