OSCAR 2010: RECAP!

Okay here, I'm gonna recap on some of the major awards and my takes on them! :) Here we go..

BEST PICTURE

The Hurt Locker

Predicted Before? BETWEEN YES AND NO!

My take: I’m so glad that the Oscar isn’t following those mainstreams with Avatar! Since I think as much as I love Avatar, is it Best Picture worthy? I mean yes, we have this great visual effect but what about the casts and all of that? While on the other hand, The Hurt Locker is a simple yet moving visual with great actors and actresses behind it and of course, the first female director, Kathryn Bigelow!

BEST DIRECTOR

Kathryn Bigelow, The Hurt Locker

Predicted Before? Ongoing debate but well, 60% said YES

My take: GO BIGELOW! Ever since, she’s nominated in this award season, I’ve been rooting for her to make a history and finally, she did it! With a very poised and soft personality, Bigelow proves she can be hardcore by directing a ‘boys-only’ movie! Kudos to her! I hope with her winning more chances are given to women in winning this category!

BEST ACTOR IN LEADING ROLE

Jeff Bridges, Crazy Heart

Predicted Before? 99,99% sure it would be him!

My take: Jeff Bridges is a clear winner on this category! Even Clooney said so! I mean, he has been ruling throughout the award season. The only big competitor for him is Colin Firth but admit it, the lightning won’t struck twice for gay plot line, huh?

BEST ACTRESS IN LEADING ROLE

Sandra Bullock, The Blind Side

Predicted Before? It’s her or Meryl, but maybe 70% her, 30% Meryl

My take: I don’t what would happen if Sandy didn’t take home this one! Everyone has been campaigning for her winning and well, she’s an absolute sweetheart. For start, she has the best acceptance speech! Second, she’s a very humble yet box-office giant actress! Third, as much as we love Meryl, we do know right that this is Sandy’s year?

BEST ACTOR IN SUPPORTING ROLE

Christoph Waltz, Inglorious Basterds

Predicted Before? Call me crazy but without watching the show, I already he’s the winner

My take: The evil cunning Nazi leader strikes back and this time around, he takes home the golden statue! Frankly speaking, at first of the movie, we all root for Pitt to be nominated in the Oscar. But oh well, where’s he now? I mean, Waltz is not a well known actor before who has proved that fame has nothing to do with his great acting!

BEST ACTRESS IN SUPPORTING ROLE

Mo’Nique, Precious

Predicted Before? 100 times ‘I knew it!’

My take: Well, I guess winning comes with size huh? Oh kidd! Well, to be honest, Mo’nique isn’t my favorite actress! However, I have to admit that in this movie, she takes it all good! And you know what, she rules with that size of hers! :p

rants, thoughts, and blabs about Oscar Nomination and Prediction

Finally, we can all breath out and take a sip of Margarita because the Oscar nomination is here! With that, I can start blabbing about the possible winner, the snubs, and everything! Awww..
Let us start..

BEST PICTURE
Avatar
The Blind Side
District 9
An Education
The Hurt Locker
Inglourious Basterds
Precious
A Serious Man
Up
Up in the Air

Who will win: It's tough to make a prediction with 10 nominations. However, according to what I see throughout the award season, it's between Avatar, The Hurt Locker, and Inglorious Basterds. However, fat chance I'll say that Oscar will give this one to Inglorious Basterds for its outstanding cast and plot. Remember in Oscar, they prefer the wholeout performance not only how great the movie looks like!

Who should win: It's tough to say, but I think Avatar deserves this award, I mean with all those years of preparation this movie is like the golden child of James Cameron. Plus, the way that this movie plays out in our brain is fantastic. I know it's mainstream but what's wrong for trying it out once, besides it's James Cameron's work!

Dark Horse: How about a movie about a young woman exploring the beauty of Paris with much older guys? An Education can be riding the dark horse, however this movie is outstanding. Well, keep your eyes on The Blind Side which is considered one of the most successful movie of 2009 for its touching and very American theme plot or even the cute and entertaining animated Up.

SNUBS: With 10 nominations and no spot for Nine, wow! That's gotta be the biggest snub ever! I mean, this movie is made for Oscar and yet, they didn't give out for best picture! Another one is the comedic The Hangover or (500) Days of Summer

BEST DIRECTOR
James Cameron, Avatar
Kathryn Bigelow, The Hurt Locker
Quentin Tarantino, Inglourious Basterds
Lee Daniels, Precious
Jason Reitman, Up in the Air

Who will win: I think this is a no brainer, I'll say, Kathryn Bigelow. With her almost taking every awards during this award season, there are no way that Bigelow won't be winning this golden statue! Well, except her ex-husband, James Cameron beats her to it!

Who should win: I'd love to see another winning for James Cameron. He always manages to make a masterpiece out of the scratch. It's like he has this big scrapbook in his brain. GENIUS! However, with my inner feminism speaking, I'd point out Kathryn Bigelow for the winning part

Dark Horse: Quentin Tarantino is riding the dark horse here, but careful guys, he can make some surprises. Hollywood does respect him and he is pointed out as the genius and quirky one. So if he wins, there's no biggie in here!

SNUBS: I keep thinking how no award show is nominating Peter Jackson or Rob Marshall. Both had done tremendous outstanding works and they should be nominated, don't you think?

BEST ACTOR
Jeff Bridges, Crazy Heart
George Clooney, Up in the Air
Colin Firth, A Single Man
Morgan Freeman, Invictus
Jeremy Renner, The Hurt Locker

Who will win: A no brainer once again, Jeff Bridges who has been snagging all the winning throughout the season will be waltzing home with this one!

Who should win : Oh jeez, I'm not Clooney's swooning fans but you know what, I love him in Up in the air. He's still charming but you don't picture the goof ball, fun, and eligible bachelor Clooney, he's totally in his character!

Dark Horse: I'll keep pointing out Colin Firth to make some surprise. In this movie, he played as gay, very torn, very Oscar favorite, who knows right?

SNUBS: Well, I keep having Daniel Day Lewis or Joseph Gordon L in my mind when I'm making nominations prediction. I think it's no fair that this year, Oscar completely snubs the whole musical thing! Hey, give some love!

BEST ACTRESS
Sandra Bullock, The Blind Side
Helen Mirren, The Last Station
Carey Mulligan, An Education
Gabourey Sibide, Precious
Meryl Streep, Julie & Julia

Who will win: It's a torn decision to choose between Meryl Streep or Sandra Bullock as a winner. However, according to my calculation, Meryl who is in her 16th nomination and run for the 3rd Oscar may have to give this one to Bullock. Everybody loves the first timer and Bullock here got the benefit of this!

Who should win: See, this will drive me crazy. Okay, Bullock, Streep, Bullock, Streep, What about just give a tie? Then we're done huh?

Dark Horse: Newcomer Carey Mulligan is the one that we always point out as dark horse. She's sweet, charming,and fresh. She'll be back with some more nominations!

SNUBS: Again, where's Marion Cottilard? Hey!

BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR
Matt Damon, Invictus
Woody Harrelson, The Messenger
Christopher Plummer, The Last Station
Stanley Tucci, The Lovely Bones
Christoph Waltz, Inglourious Basterds

Who will win: Easy! Christoph Waltz, the intimidating Nazi will absolutely take home this one!

Who should win: Again, Christoph Waltz has been my favorite ever since I watched Inglorious Basterds!

Dark Horse: Oh well, the super villain of the Lovely Bones, Stanely Tucci might win this award if there's no Christoph Waltz. That's all I'm saying

SNUBS: Oh well, in this, there's no significant snubs, phew, thank God!

BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS
Penelope Cruz, Nine
Vera Farmiga, Up in the Air
Maggie Gyllenhaal, Crazy Heart
Anna Kendrick, Up in the Air
Mo'Nique, Precious

Who will win: It's Mo'Nique who already booked her position of winning the prize. Oh well, you can see it from the consecutive wins!

Who should win: Oh why do I keep saying that I'd love another win for Penelope Cruz. It's gotta be cool having two wins in the same category!For some reason too, she's an amazing actress and embraces her role in Nine, smoothly!

Dark Horse: Hey, we never expected Maggie Gyllenhaal to be nominated but look at her! Well, she's definitely the dark horse here.

SNUBS: I think for better or worse, I'll say Julianne Moore should be nominated but oh well, maybe next year!

BEST ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY
The Hurt Locker, Mark Boal
Inglourious Basterds, Quentin Tarantino
The Messenger, Alessandro Camon and Oren Moverman
A Serious Man, Joel Coen and Ethan Coen
Up, Screenplay by Bob Peterson, Pete Docter; Story by Bob Peterson, Pete Docter, and Tom McCarthy

Who will win: Oh no brainer with no up in the air here, it's Inglorious Basterds. Queentin Tarantino has created a very quirky, bombshell dropping script!

Who should win: Two words: Inglorious Basterds!

Dark Horse: Known for their genius in writing script, Joel Coen and Ethan Coen can be the winner in this category

SNUBS: Where is It's Complicated? It has an amazing script, so why no love for this one? :(

(I'm not going to the whole technical in here, because frankly, it's hard to make that kind of prediction)

Grammy's: the most outrageous red carpet as always

Yes, as always, Grammy's will always be infamous for its outrageous, edgy, fashion forward Red Carpet. Here are some of the highlights in Red Carpet for the evening:

#1 Lady Gaga in Armani Prive
rated: ♥♥♥♥1/2

This is case where her quirkiness actually worked! I mean, the dress was undoubtedly unique, looking like some kind of spiral futuristic look. Of course, her hair was looking pretty marvelous and the make up, oh finally, something normal!

#2 Marissa Miller
rated: ♥♥♥1/2

Well, this what I'd like to call, safe look. Here Marissa Miller didn't do much with the dress, the Victoria Angels babe kept it simple and the hair do was pretty much the same. However, you know what they say, simplicity works the best!

#3 Katy Perry in Zac Posen
rated: ♥♥♥

First of all, I just wanna say that the dress looked a bit linen-y. Second, I don't think the whole metallic flower worked out perfectly. Eventually, it came to a conclusion that Miss Perry didn't look fab in this dress!

#4 Lea Michele
rated: ♥♥♥♥3/4

One of my best dressed picks for the night! I love the detailed poodle-y skirt and of course, I think Lea Michele dressed up properly for her age as usual and looked stunning. Bravo!

#5 Beyonce
rated: ♥♥♥♥

I don't think dress was Beyonce's. I mean it's her big night, she should be wearing something even more glamorous. Instead she opted for some nude which didn't really shine in Red Carpet. However,I'm in love with her hair do! She looked totally stunning in that hair color. :D

#6 Heidi Klum
rated: ♥♥♥♥

I think Heidi's look last night was a hit! I love the nude dress better than the one in Beyonce. I mean, this one looked more glamorous, trendy, and comfortable to wear. Of course, it's Heidi Klum, she always opted for fun, flirty look!

#7 Fergie
rated: ♥♥♥♥

Halelujah! Finally! It's about time for Fergie to wear something in bright color. After few of fashion disappointment, Ms. Fergie brought back the it with gorgeous electric blue dress!
And yeah, I'm loving the beauty pageant looked like detail here, anyone?

#8 Pink
rated: ♥♥♥

First when I looked at the dress, I went wow before I came down to see the inappropriate Mermaid Detail. I guess, if they left the dress without that detail, it'd have been magical!

#9 Carrie Underwood
rated: ♥♥♥♥1/2

For instance, I'd say that she looked fabulous in that white dress! It was slightly unique and very creative of her to choose this kind of dress. Plus, I love her hair, reminds me of Jennifer Aniston's Rachel!

#10 Taylor Swift
rated: ♥♥♥♥3/4

Glamorous dress, great hair do, and gorgeous make up? Taylor Swift was dressed down for the night!

#11 Miley Cyrus
rated: ♥♥♥♥

For once, Miley actually looked like a teenager in here. Well, not so much but still..it's better than never! However, one thing that's bothering me, the hair extension! It looked like, it was overdo!

#12 Rihanna
rated: ♥♥♥ 1/2

I don't know why but I think Rihanna can do better than that! The neckline was a bit blah, and of course, I didn't like the hair do. So yeah, I guess I know the reason!

#13 Ke$ha
rated: ♥♥♥1/2

Two words: trashy rockstar! haha..

these Oscar favorites :D

I have always loved Oscar, yea, I mean the thrill and excitement of the announcement for the winners, the glamorous red carpet, Oh My!
So I'll present to you my nomination for the best performances in decades, starting from best actor, actress, and i'll continue in the next post with best supporting actor and actress, plus best picture :D

BEST ACTOR

#1 Russell Crowe as John Forbes Nash, Jr. (A Beautiful Mind)

No doubt! I think Crowe’s performance here was fantastic, magical, implicit, yet flawless! Compared with The Gladiator, I think Crowe should have taken the Oscar for this role, or maybe both! J Anyway, I can’t stop picturing him with that equations and everything! Amazing-ness!

#2 Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow (Pirates of The Caribbean)

I kept thinking how quirky Depp’s character in this amazing triology! I just don’t get it, why no Oscar for him, yet! I mean Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow is legendary! Everyone adored, no adore him for this role! Nothing can stop Depp and we know it! It’s about time to give some Oscar, a long waited one for this talented actor!

#3 Leonardo DiCaprio as Frank Wheeler (Revolutionary Road)

I’m sorry, but how could you not give Leo a nomination for this performance? I mean, him with Winslet are magical, there are sparks, chemistry, emotion, anger, lust, and everything! It’s just wrong not to give him one of those nomination for the golden statue! Leo for the Oscar, my friend!

#4 Tom Hanks as Prof. Robert Langdon (Angels&Demons)

It’s a clear reason why because Tom Hanks is such an amazing actor that he embodied the role of Professor Robert Langdon in such a way that everytime I read the book, my mind goes to him!

#5 Robert Downey Jr. as Sherlock Holmes (Sherlock Holmes)

For the upcoming Oscar, I’m begging someone to actually nominate him for this role! Him as Sherlock Holmes is twisted in some way yet incredible in another one! So dear Oscar board or whatever you are, please let me root Downey in this year Oscar!

BEST ACTRESS

#1 Sandra Bullock as Leigh Anne T (The Blind Side)

I’m just rooting for Sandra to win this year’s Oscar! I think her performance is

outstanding and deserved an Oscar as cherry on top! It must be insane if she doesn’t win

this one because from what I know, she’s proved to all of us, America, that she’s not just

some America’s sweetheart, she can act! :D

#2 Meryl Streep as Miranda Priestly (Devil Wears Prada)

I have to admit that I’m Meryl’s big fans and fashion obsessed. However, this doesn’t

base most of the reason why we have to pick her as winning lady! I basically think that

the performance that Meryl had given us was outstanding and very realistic. This is so

far, my favorite Meryl’s performance in a decade

#3 Nicole Kidman as Virginia Woolf (The Hours)

Yes! It’s me being an old soul and loving everything about almost century ago! However,

I think Nicole was at her best at this movie and of course, she totally embodied the role as

if she lived in that generation!

#4 Kate Winslet as Hanna Schmitz (The Reader)

Okay, this is the performance that finally gave Winslet an Oscar! So yes, it’s historical

blah blah blah! However, my reason for choosing this one is because Winslet here

doesn’t just pose as the smart girl or whatever. She’s guilty and give us some dilemma in

choosing what’s best for her!

#5 Angelina Jolie as Christine Collins (The Changeling)

I guess, when the Oscar race first come, Jolie is like the most likely to win! She has Clint

Eastwood on her back, the dramatic mother story, but unfortunately for her, the long

waited Oscar for Winslet robbed her! However, I still think, this is one of the best

performances in the decade! She based this on her real life hero, her mother that made it

so sweet and approachable.

SAG prediction :D

so as you all know, that SAG will be held 2mrrw! (so excited about that)
as usual, i'm going to present to you my take, on who's gonna win,should win,and the dark horse of course :D

let us begin:

FILM

Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role

JEFF BRIDGES / Bad Blake - "CRAZY HEART" (Fox Searchlight Pictures)

GEORGE CLOONEY / Ryan Bingham - "UP IN THE AIR" (Paramount Pictures)

COLIN FIRTH / George Falconer - "A SINGLE MAN" (The Weinstein Company)

MORGAN FREEMAN / Nelson Mandela - "INVICTUS" (Warner Bros. Pictures)

JEREMY RENNER / Staff Sgt. William James - "THE HURT LOCKER" (Summit Entertainment)

Who will win: Looking at the consecutive wins, I'll say Jeff Bridges for Crazy Heart. This man has never won this one before and as you can see, SAG is all about honoring your own actors. So I'm gonna go with Jeff Bridges

Who should win: I stick with what I said before, I'd love to see some Mr.Clooney for the win. It's not because he's dreamy,sexy,and charming (which by the way he is) but the way he brings it for the audience and his devotion to the role is what makes me secretly rooting for him

Dark Horse: Well, Jeremy Renner is not a favorite to win but I know with the critically acclaimed movie of his, The Hurt Locker, Jeremy also stands a chance in taking one of those statues home!

Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role

SANDRA BULLOCK / Leigh Anne Tuohy - "THE BLIND SIDE" (Warner Bros. Pictures)

HELEN MIRREN / Sofya - "THE LAST STATION" (Sony Pictures Classics)

CAREY MULLIGAN / Jenny - "AN EDUCATION" (Sony Pictures Classics)

GABOUREY SIDIBE / Precious - "PRECIOUS: BASED ON THE NOVEL ‘PUSH' BY SAPPHIRE" (Lionsgate)

MERYL STREEP / Julia Child - "JULIE & JULIA" (Columbia Pictures)

Who will win: This probably the hardest one to choose, I guess it's all between Sandra Bullock and Meryl Streep. Both women delivered such an amazing performances. Both of them have won equally same awards. Now, it's just a matter of time to determine one winner. However I think Meryl Streep will win this one, counting that she's one of the most respected actress in Hollywood history. It's still fun too have another tie though?

Who should win: I guess, or I hope Sandra Bullock will win. It's not because she's better than Meryl. They're equally good :D but it's just nice to see a one-timer to win something and it's the year for Sandra to get some respect from her fellow actors/actress!

Dark Horse: Sorry Emily Blunt, so far you've not uppened your game so you'll still be my royal dark horse :D

STANLEY TUCCI / George Harvey - "THE LOVELY BONES" (Paramount Pictures)

CHRISTOPH WALTZ / Col. Hans Landa - "INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS" (The Weinstein Company/Universal Pictures)

Who will win and should win: Christoph Waltz! Hands Down everybody! Do I have to say more?

Dark Horse: Matt Damon with Invictus is not entirely convinced able so I'm gonna go with him as the dark horse. But you always know every dark horse can bring some surprise huh?

Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role

PENÉLOPE CRUZ / Carla - "NINE" (The Weinstein Company)

VERA FARMIGA / Alex Goran - "UP IN THE AIR" (Paramount Pictures)

ANNA KENDRICK / Natalie Keener - "UP IN THE AIR" (Paramount Pictures)

DIANE KRUGER / Bridget Von Hammersmark - "INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS" (The Weinstein Company/Universal Pictures)

MO'NIQUE / Mary - "PRECIOUS: BASED ON THE NOVEL ‘PUSH' BY SAPPHIRE" (Lionsgate)

Who will win: Me and all of my friends have this in our minds' set! It's Ms. Mo'nique who will deliver another hearth wrenching speech! :D You can count on me about this one!

Who should win: I guess it would be nice to see Twilight Star Anna Kendrick for the win, or maybe even Ms. Diane Kruger who always manages to look effortlessly stylish in award season's red carpet! Roll up some camera! Here they come!

Dark Horse: At this point, Diane Kruger is the dark horse. She hasn't gotten any nomination except for this one, and of course, she's not that you know, serious actress type, she's more like a fashionista to me!

GABOUREY SIDIBE / Precious

Who will win: It's a two words announcement: Inglorious Basterds. Why? Okay, we have these amazing actors who kicked Nazi's asses so, what can go wrong?

Who should win: I guess, I'd have to agree with Inglorious Basterds or Nine. These are stars who are committed to their works, I mean really working hard for it! So why don't give them some awards?

Dark Horse: I doubt that The Hurt Locker stands a chance on this one. As far as I'm concerned, the movie is sensational because of Bigelow not the casts (sorry folks!)

Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Television Movie or Miniseries

CUBA GOODING, JR. / Ben Carson - "GIFTED HANDS: THE BEN CARSON STORY" (TNT)

Who should win: Same as above, I'll say Kevin Bacon for Winning!

Dark Horse: IDK!

Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Television Movie or Miniseries

DREW BARRYMORE / Little Edie - "GREY GARDENS" (HBO)

RUBY DEE / Mrs. Harper - "AMERICA" (Lifetime)

JESSICA LANGE / Big Edie - "GREY GARDENS" (HBO)

SIGOURNEY WEAVER / Mary Griffith - "PRAYERS FOR BOBBY" (Lifetime)

Who will win: It's either Jessica Lange or Drew Barrymore! So what's it gonna be fellow actors/actress? the girl who practically grew up in H-wood or senior actress?

Who should win: Let's gather up and pick Drew Barrymore! Girl can deliver a satisfying speech! Honest and blunt yet emotional!

Dark Horse: Again IDK!

Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Drama Series

MICHAEL C. HALL / Dexter Morgan - "DEXTER" (Showtime)

JON HAMM / Don Draper - "MAD MEN" (AMC)

HUGH LAURIE / House - "HOUSE" (FOX)

Who will win: I'm still an optimist and root for Hugh Laurie. Why? I know that Michael C Hall won globes but you know what, Globes is seeking something big and mainstream (with C Hall's cancer it's extra big news) but SAG is more like who earns more respect and it's Laurie!

Who should win: You know how I said it, screw Hamm, screw C.Hall, screw everyone in this nomination except Laurie :)

Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Drama Series

JULIANNA MARGULIES / Alicia Florrick - "THE GOOD WIFE" (CBS)

KYRA SEDGWICK / Deputy Chief Brenda Leigh Johnson - "THE CLOSER" (TNT)

Who will win: Okay I see that Julianna Margulies walks home with Golden Globe (yea the show is fresh, and we know GG loves something mainstream and fresh) but here, trust me, she won't have the same luck, it's either Glenn Close or Glenn Close

Who should win: Still rooting for Glenn Close. As much as you got intimated by her, she's one of the most memorable villain, ever!

Dark Horse: Sorry to announce that the dark horses will go to either Patricia Arquette or Kyra Sedgwick (she can sit and be a supportive other for her husband at least)

Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Comedy Series

ALEC BALDWIN / Jack Donaghy - "30 ROCK" (NBC)

Who should win: Two words: Tina Fey!
