That is probably why they are hosting. Who will get swindled this year? What fancy-tie and jeans combo will James Cameron be sporting? Well I guess we will find out March 7th. I was horribly off with my Golden Globe predictions, so let's see how judgmental and wrong I'll be this time.
Seriously though, Tilda Swinton is not from this planet. I actually google image searched her and had no problem trying to find an alien-like photo. On the other hand, it was pretty hard to find a photo where she looked human. A problem that no other celebrity has ... well maybe besides Gary Busey. I don't know what she was up to this year - maybe her human surrogate broke? Harvesting eggs? Growing some new skin? Who knows. All I know is that she scares me. A lot.
Anyways - usually after the Golden Globes and the British Oscars [BAFTA,] we have a good understanding of who may win what and who we don't care about. This year there is an interesting spin, with the expansion of the Best Picture category. It's all about that green stuff - not greed or envy or boogers - just cash. More movie DVD cases can write 'Best Picture Nominee' on it and such. Zang! Hollywood exposed. Right here. Information nobody else ever knew!!
I'm pretty sure I'm going to set it up like I did with the Globes - Who I WANT to win will be in red, Who I THINK will win will be in green, and if they are the SAME, it'll be in blue. I'm not anti-Avatar. It was a good movie. The best movie? Meh. I think that Avatar and District 9 will do very, very well with the technical awards - Star Trek may slip one or two in there. Now, again disclaimer: some of the nominees I want to win I know will not win - but hey, a boy can dream, right? And the nominees I think will win are just based off of popularity and the GG's and the British Oscars and buzz and such.
