Of all the movies nominated, we (my husband and I) have only seen Moneyball, so we can't compare, but he likes TTSS and wants Gary Oldman to win. I like Moneyball and want Brad to win.

It looks like the majority of the people who have a vote will also vote for Jean Dujardin. I have no idea how a movie without talking can win. Sounds boring to me!

Well, Gary Oldman is very happy to be nominated, and called it a fairytale. That Frenchman will probably win it.

When I read the reviews of the films nominated, I do not feel like seeing them. Though I like Clooney I never was impressed by the movies he was in or his performances.

I would like to think it's Oldman's year - granted, it will be more for his body of work than for this particular film (which left me a little confused) but he's been around 30 years and racked up some amazing performances.

Michael Fassbender should have won, but he's not even nominated. The best actor and best performance of the year. 'Shame' is an extraordinary, challenging and thought provoking film. The nominees don't come even close.
