So have you seen any of the movies that are up for best picture? I have seen District 9 which was pretty good. I do believe that it is a tight race between Avatar and Hurt Locker which is kinda ironic since the directors of both films, James Cameron and Katherine Bigelow, were married at one point and now divorced. I think everyone is going to expect Avatar to win but Hurt Locker will probably take it.

Who do you think is going to win for best actress? Sandra Bullock, Helen Mirren, Carey Mulligan, Meryl Streep or Gabourey Sidibe? I did see Meryl Streep in Julie & Julia and she did do Julia Child's role perfect. But she has won in the past so maybe they will give someone else a chance.
