The main thing that bugs be about the Oscars is that, every year, movies get ignored for no other reason than the fact that they didn't come out during "Oscar Season." I hate that. If it's supposed to be the best movies of 2010, they should look at movies from 2010, not only from 2010-between-October-to-December.
I think the window is a little more open than that. Most movies with Oscar material try and get a release in that period anyway, though.
Inception (or 127 Hours) for Best Director. Nolan had to balance to much to make that film work, and Boyles had to bring some serious style to make the plot of 127 Hours not only watchable, but very fun, enjoyable, and inspiring.
Very good points, both.
Christian Bale for Best Supporting Actor (good choice, Academy)
I haven't seen The Fighter yet, sadly.
The King's Speech (or Inception) for Best Score. My girlfriend is a pianist who writes classical scores, so I might be biased toward a good classical score that features piano...
I wasn't much into the King's music, but I totally loved Inception's score, Dragon's too. But being a Nine Inch Nails fan I was also happy for Trent Reznor.

You mustn't be afraid to dream a little bigger, darling.

The two losers of the Oscars: actually just as good! "True Grit" (2010) and "127 Hours"

What about "Inception?" Nolan didn't even get nominated for Best Director & it was a 10-yr project! *NM*

If there was anything Inception definitely deserved to win for, it was effects and cinematography! *NM*

I personally think that Jeff Bridges performance was the best, but okay with Firth or Franco
