2011 Oscar Predictions (Page 1 of 2)

You will be hearing a lot about these films in the upcoming weeks. If you havnt seen the Black Swan trailer go check it out!! Let's just say it ends very Lynchian

Black Swan looks pretty neat, LOL at first i was like AW HEEEALLL no. But the trailer got pretty interesting

I have really high hopes for The Social Network i think its gonna be amazing

Inception would sure win the Academy Awards for Best Picture.
I'm putting my bet now.

I can't complain there, I think Inception, Black Swan and Social Network will fight for most of the awards.  I hear Eddie Vedder might be up for one for his song in Eat Love Pray which would be awesome given I love PJ!!

Its going to be a fight between The Social Network, Black Swan, The Fighter and Inception for best picture. I think The Social Network will win, given the massive amout of awards praise so far.

I'd be pissed if Social Network won, Black Swan and Inception have more going for them.  Especially Black Swan right now is being flooded with fantastic reviews.  Inception is no Memento for Christopher Nolan, but I think he could snag up the Director statue

Black Swan is fucking amazing. I'm hoping it wins a lot.

I am a film fan first and foremost! I like to see what awards hollywood give hollywood. It's inherently interesting. To each their own but it's fun to follow awards season because I am a film fan and yes not since the 70's and a bit of the 80's has the Academy given proper awards but I have faith it will get back to the good old days.
