The 82nd Annual Academy Awards - discussion thread

I bet it's another for The Hurt locker ... and i was correct.

I wonder if The Hurt Locker wins ... how it be viewed in 5 or 10 years time.
 
I guess I just don't get it then, because Avatar looked cartoonish and fake. JMO.

I agree. I didn't find Avatar's FX -3D aside- all that "revolutionary."

I think Avatar took motion capture/virtual environments to a much further level than anything Trek did.

If you ask someone versed in the tech and industry, they'll no doubt agree with you. Hence while I am not surprised it won.

From my end-consumer perspective, i.e. the person who actually pays for a ticket to see it, I was not wowed or impressed. Trek wowed me.

I may be biased because I did not care much for the new Trek at all and I very much wanted to.

I do know random people go on and on to me about Avatar, people who watch genre fare, people who never do normally, everyone. I don't think it's just being swayed by the media.
