Default Oscars of the First Half of 2010

If this is dumb then you may tar and feather me (no, not literally) but I thought since the first half of 2010 has passed us by, we could give our picks for Best Picture, Actor, Actress, Supporting Actor, Supporting Actress and Director of films for the first half of 2010. I'll try:

Picture: Toy Story 3
Actor: Robert Downey as Iron Man
Actress: Chloe Moretz as Hit Girl
Supporting Actor:?
Supporting Actress:Moretz could be here I guess...she was so good let's give her both
Director: Martin Scorsese for Shutter Island

Like maybe 1% of the movies that'll be nominated for Oscars have even come out yet. I like Downey in Iron Man 2 but that is not an Oscar nominated performance.

Maybe he's trying to say if the Oscars were now and it was based off the first half of 2010.

Twilight for everything.

(Time flies, though--Forgot that it's already July, and that's traditionally when the Buzzy-Boiz start coming out of hibernation...
And then, before you know it, it's November and we STILL can't think of any real contenders.)

Wow haha, although it'll be interesting to see who wins Best Animated Feature at next years Oscars with the success of How To Train A Dragon.

No chance in Hell. I told you guys last year Ponyo had no chance in hell of even being nominated. HTTYD may get nominated, but no chance in hell it wins best animated feature. With three animated features released this year, Dreamworks is diluting it's own brand, while Pixar just knocked yet another home run out of the park. Dreamworks really doesn't care, by the by - they're happy to just to keep pluggin away making movies, and more power to them.

Too bad Princess and the Frog wasn't pushed back to this year. P&TF is better than anything I've seen so far in the last 7 months, including TS3.

I am surprised you liked Toy Story 3. Since you usually crucify Dreamworks for including Pop Culture jokes and Fart Jokes....and Toy Story 3 contained both.

I'm not too sure how you can say Dragon has no chance. Both that and Toy Story got fantastic reviews. What was the difference? Toy Story has its creative animation but Dragon has strong themes. Themes usually win out.

I'll just say this. Right here. And right now.

Yes, because of a disastrously misinterpreted ten-nomination stunt last year, we actually had "District 9" and "Inglorious Basterds" on the B-list for Best Picture, and had doubtless half a million fanboys saying "...See, SEE? "

But just because "Basterds" had Christoph Waltz's BSA supporting it up, and D9 was just cribbed off of the Golden Globes for lack of other informed votes that year, does not mean a sudden sweeping support for geekdom within the Oscars.
Anyone who is that pathetic enough to think that K*ck-*ss will be remembed by October, let alone the nominations, DESERVES to be hunted down naked with rifles and dogs. There's geeky, and then there's just plain desperate to have something to post.
The OP posted it twice, no less, and I leave you to make of that what you will.
