Loading ...Since lists are my thing, I would like to make an early prediction for the 2010 Oscars. The movies in 2010 look very good and interesting, such as the Cronenbergesque Repo Men, or the riveting crime thriller Brooklyn’s Finest, which actually puts Richard Geere, Ethan Hawke, and Wesley Snipes together. Wow.
Since I am looking forward to so many movies this year, which is actually a shock since I had only looked forward to three movies last year (Avatar, Moon & Inglourious Basterds) and so many turned out to be great, though many sucked something fierce (Transformers 2, Paranormal Activity, Knowing, Miss March, The Unborn and the granddaddy of them all Terminator: Salvation).
Here are my Oscar predictions for 2010:
Best Picture:
Shutter Island
The Rum Diary
Arrested Development
Repo Men
Brooklyn’s Finest
RoboCop
Alice in Wonderland
Inception
The Three Stooges
Robin Hood

yeah, but I should have thought it over. I knew they were going to screw up Shutter Island, so why didn’t I stick with Inception, and why are almost ALL of the nominees just like not even good? Biutiful and The Tree of Life need to be featured in the next one.
