And The Oscar Goes To...

Best Picture- The King's Speech.... This, I have to admit, was disappointing. I really wanted Social Network to win, but oh well. This movie was very good as well.

Best Actor- Colin Firth

Best Supporting Actor- Christian Bale... YAY!

Best Actress- Natalie Portman

Best Supporting Actress- Melissa Leo

Best Director- Tom Hooper... This is truly a shame in my opinion. David Fincher should have won. He got the shaft, yet again. 

Best Original Screenplay- The King's Speech

Best Adapted Screenplay- The Social Network

Film Editing- The Social Network

Animated Feature- Toy Story 3

Art Direction- Alice in Wonderland.... This was very surprising. I assumed that Inception would win all of the technical awards. 

Cinematography- Inception

Documentary Feature- Inception

Original Score- The Social Network

Original Song- "We Belong Together"- Toy Story 3

There weren't really any surprises or upsets. I think that I was pretty right on with all of my predictions. I think that makes the show less interesting, too. I was reading Entertainment Weekly and they brought up an interesting point. If the ceremony were BEFORE all of the other awards, then it would be less predictable. By the time the show is actually on, everyone knows who is going to win. I think it would be a great thing to move it into the front of the awards season.
