And here is the list just one more time, now with only the winners listed! PS: Congrats to The King’s Speech and Colin Firth !
Best Motion Picture of the Year
The King’s Speech (2010): Iain Canning, Emile Sherman, Gareth Unwin – FAV (I listed this as my favorite from all the nominees – well done, me).
Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role
Colin Firth for The King’s Speech (2010) FAV (Same thing with Colin, YAY! for Colin, I knew he’ll get this one!)
Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role
Natalie Portman for Black Swan (2010) FAV (I think this was too obvious to be even a surprise, it was just – ahah, I knew it, blah).
Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role
Christian Bale for The Fighter (2010) (Wasn’t my FAV for a reason, I haven’t watched this movie yet – it’s next on my list..)
Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role
Melissa Leo for The Fighter (2010) (Same story as with previous winner, Christian Bale..)
Best Achievement in Directing
Tom Hooper for The King’s Speech (2010) (I gave this to The Social Network since I tried to even the playing field, TKS gets the best movie, TSN gets the director.. Academy Awards apparently don’t fallow the rules that way.)
Best Writing, Screenplay Written Directly for the Screen
The King’s Speech (2010): David Seidler FAV (I like when I’m right and with TKS I’m almost always right it seems..)
Best Writing, Screenplay Based on Material Previously Produced or Published
The Social Network (2010): Aaron Sorkin FAV (Thank god it wasn’t in the same category as TKS, all else it would’ve been even harder to pick my favorite..)
Best Animated Feature Film of the Year
Toy Story 3 (2010): Lee Unkrich (Haven’t seen it.. don’t intend to watch it either, sorry Toy Story..)
Best Foreign Language Film of the Year
Hævnen (2010): Susanne Bier(Denmark) (No comments.. god, I should really pay more attention to European films..)
Best Achievement in Cinematography
Inception (2010): Wally Pfister (Wasn’t my favorite but at least Inception got something for it’s visuals…)
Best Achievement in Editing
The Social Network (2010): Kirk Baxter, Angus Wall FAV (I was right again…)
Best Achievement in Art Direction
Alice in Wonderland (2010): Robert Stromberg, Karen O’Hara (Wow, it got an award for something. Not the best from Tim Burton though!)
Best Achievement in Costume Design
Alice in Wonderland (2010): Colleen Atwood (Another one, apparently the art and costumes were the best.. while of course other nominees didn’t have that kid of imagination in hand – Wonderland pretty much can be everything and anything.)
Best Achievement in Makeup
The Wolfman (2010): Rick Baker, Dave Elsey (Same thing as with Alice in Wonderland I think.. Making a man into a wolf pretty much sets the bar high.)
Best Achievement in Music Written for Motion Pictures, Original Score
The Social Network (2010): Trent Reznor, Atticus Ross (I had my finger crossed for Zimmer cause I like his work but TSN deserves it also.)
Best Achievement in Music Written for Motion Pictures, Original Song
Toy Story 3 (2010): Randy Newman(“We Belong Together”) (Me and this song don’t belong together, haven’t even heard it…)
Best Achievement in Sound Mixing
Inception (2010): Lora Hirschberg, Gary Rizzo, Ed Novick FAV (If Zimmer doesn’t get an award, the sound mixers get it – yay for them!)
Best Achievement in Sound Editing
Inception (2010): Richard King FAV (The sound is all about Inception this year, great!)
Best Achievement in Visual Effects
Inception (2010): Chris Corbould, Andrew Lockley, Pete Bebb, Paul J. Franklin FAV (So visuals and the sounds were perfection in Inception.. end of story!)
Best Documentary, Features
Inside Job (2010): Charles Ferguson, Audrey Marrs
Best Documentary, Short Subjects
Strangers No More (2010): Karen Goodman, Kirk Simon
Best Short Film, Animated
The Lost Thing (2010): Shaun Tan, Andrew Ruhemann
Best Short Film, Live Action
The Confession (2010/IV): Tanel Toom (This is an Estonian!! Like, yay – too bad he didn’t win, but I’m gonna list him anyway cause I can do what ever I want.)
God of Love (2010): Luke Matheny – winner.
Congrats to Colin firth – he acted his socks off. Well deserved 😉
I thought so too! Finally, he should have won with A Single Man also!
