2011 Best Picture Oscar
 
And the nominees are...


Black Swan
The Fighter
Inception
The Kids Are All Right
The King's Speech
127 Hours
The Social Network
Toy Story 3
True Grit
Winter's Bone



If you had a vote, where would it go? What do you think was snubbed?

I voted True Grit but knowing how the Academy votes these days and the crowd they try and appease to they'll probably give the award to Black Swan, Social Network or King's Speech.

I voted for Inception.

I voted for The King's Speech, although Inception, Toy Story 3, The Social Network, Black Swan are all fine movies. :)

In my opinion, if they want to rebel, The Social Network will take it. If they want to go traditional and play it safe, The King's Speech will win.

I voted for Social Network.

Inception won't win because Nolan didn't grab the director nom.

Of these I have currently seen two. My personal opinion would give it to Toy Story 3, which I'm pleasantly suprised to see nominated. I didn't find The Social Network all that wonderful, and have no idea how it even rated a nomination. Based on word of mouth, I actually voted for The King's Speech, but knowing Toy Story 3 will not win, due to it being animated, I don't really care.

man how awesome would it be if Toy Story 3 won? i'll be rooting for Inception though...
but i'm thinkin the academy will go for King's Speech or Social Network, neither of which I have seen so i'm just going by "buzz". I would be happy with Black Swan winning too.

GO INCEPTION!!

Im going Kings Speech with Black Swan a close second. Im sure they will give it to The Social Network though. I have seen all the nominated films and I think they were all pretty good.

The Social Network will probably win and I haven't seen it but it honestly doesn't have a great oscar "lookout" as in I could see a lot of people thinking it was one of the worst winners in the years down the road.

Gunny. You are ridiculous.

I think the Social Network will win, but my favorite of the year was 127 Hours.

No need to beat around the bush, it's between Social Network and King's Speech but Social Network won everything from the critics so the King's Speech seems pretty obvious. Almost too obvious...

I voted for Inception, but The King's speech will probably win.

Out of the films nominated I think Black Swan should win, but The Social Network will win.

stevo3001 01-26-11 08:37 AM

Here's my ranking of the films-

1 Toy Story 3
2 127 Hours
3 Winter’s Bone
4 The Social Network
5 The King’s Speech
6 True Grit
7 Inception
8 The Kids Are All Right
9 Black Swan
10 The Fighter

I expect The Social Network will win. It'll be one of the better Best Picture winners.

I think it's between The Social Network and The King's Speech. I prefer the Social Network of the two so I'm hoping it'll win.

Re: 2011 Best Picture Oscar
 
I agree. It will either be The Social Network or The King's Speech. I'm rooting for The Social Network.

tramp 01-27-11 07:39 PM

The Social Network has won a lot of awards but the Producers Guild gave it to The King's Speech. Now, that doesn't necessarily mean it will win, but it sure does make it a race.
