Best Picture?

You know there is one thing that really annoys me about the Oscars and that so many of the films involved aren't seen by the general public.

They were talking about Hurt Locker and the fact that more people watched the Oscars than that movie.

Now I'm not saying that it isn't deserving of awards, but when it comes awards like Best Picture, I think the amount of people that actually saw the movie should be taken into consideration.

Also I would love for a comedy to get nominated and win Best Picture. Surely someone can write such a thing.

Yes, its wonderful that a woman finally won for best director, yay! But there are so many other things in Hollyweird that need to change. I think I would have been more excited if Up! would have won best picture, now that would have been an Oscar upset.

That said, I seldom see the movies that are up for that particular award, because they are too snooty. I go to the movies for escapism and stuff like Hurt Locker won't do it for me.
