Oscar fever!

Surprise! I have got exclusive access to some information as to who will be the winners in this year's academy awards. And I share this only with the privileged few and that includes you :-). When the academy awards are presented, come this March before the svelte Anne Hathway could initiate the event here is the exclusive preview of that event initiated by a handsome ME :-).

Best picture : Avatar
All technical categories: Avatar
Best director : Jason reitman for Up in the air.
Best supporting actor : Christopher waltz for Ingluorious basterds
Best actor : Jeremy renner for The hurt locker
Best music : Quentin tarantino for Ingluorious basterds

Although for the best director category James cameron (avatar) & Katherine bigelow for "the hurt locker" are in serious contention I would like Jason to win the award.
One interesting fact is that Katherine begelow is the ex wife of James cameron. It seems that they have taken the fight to the academies!! I don't think such a scenario had ever been enacted anywhere in any awards!

I would say that all the above movies are as different as you could ever get. If Avatar is a sci fi imaginary world then Up in the air is a current reflection of the recession hit US with a lot of emotional quotient. If Ingluorious basterds (deliberately misspelt) is a world warII drama with blood and gore then The hurt locker is a current crisis in Iraq faced by the US troops. All punch in some extraordinary performances. For best actor category Jeff bridges and George clooney are also strong contenders but somehow I think Jeremy renner will win this time.

And at last in the best music category Quentin tarantino could win but our own A.R.Rahman has all the chance in the world to weave his magic once again. I say this because his music in couples retreat is worthy of an award, although I can't say the same for the movie! Now the countdown starts for the D day and here begins the waiting game!!!!
