I find myself in the unusual position of having actually seen one of the movies that was released during the current (Oscar) year. Since I go to a theater on average once every 18 months, this is a surprise. The one I saw was in DVD format at home, so that pattern wasn't affected. Since I did see it and liked it, I'm biased towards it, and I'd vote for it for Best Picture.
Regrettably, Wall-E isn't nominated in that category.
I hope it wins for Best Original Screenplay, but I think it got stiffed.

Posted by: Karan at February 19, 2009 07:29 PMWell we were watching the Oscars, but the snow is falling heavily--again--and our DirectTV went out. It does now and again and this would be the again.....Got as far as best supporting actor and then nothing..........guess we will have to wait til tomorrow. We did our own little poll here-5 of us--none of us have seen any of the movies or had much knowledge about them.. So far the one who knew the absolute least is in the lead.........Go figure.
