    Academy is robbing Avatar. Even Sound Editing, the 4 other movies were better than Hurt Locker, unless the people judging were deaf.

    I fear now that even the best picture (as per the tradition of oscars) will be bagged by Hurt Locker. Go figure

    she is James Cameroon’s Ex; and they changed the voting system from winner takes all to proportionally weighted; and they increased the number of nominees from 5 to 10 😀
    nothing to see here move along 😉

    SearchIndia.com Responds:

    You write: she is James Cameroon’s Ex

    Ha ha ha.

    Just because Kathryn Bigelow once sat on the same toilet seat as Jim Cameron does not entitle her to the Oscar.

    Oh and the fact that Jeff Bridges was nominated 5 times has been mentioned every time some one as much as thought about “best actor” definitely had nothing to do with the final result 😀

    SearchIndia.com Responds:

    And apparently happily married for 30+ years too.

    Ridiculous. Did no one tell him variety adds to the spice of life.
