A great feel bad film.

Check out this synopsis by IMDB. Here is a link to the plot summary:

»www.imdb.com/title/tt088 ··· tsummary

Sounds like the kind of movie that you would not even want to watch once. Sounds rather depressing from the synopsis.

How often do cartoons actually win against real films?

Donno. Ask the makers of Titanic or Lord of the Rings.

Avatar winning an Oscar would bring down the entire establishment - unless it was an Oscar for best 3D of the month or something.

Sci-fi films rarely win the Best Picture award.

Re: A great feel bad film.

Sure it earned a lot of money, that doesn't make it a great movie. Perhaps I am in the minority of those who like a good and at least somewhat original story?

Re: A great feel bad film.

The underlying theme(s) of every movie is the same.

Love
Money
Greed
Good guy / bad guy

And there may be one or 2 more "themes", but they are all the same. The only difference is how they get there and what they show you to influence your feeling of that theme(s).

Saying it is not original material can be extended to virtually everything including games and music.

Avatar did what Movies are supposed to do, it entertained a whole lot of people. people goto films to be taken away to another world for a few hours.

Hurt Locker well it could have been done on the History Channel.

BTW, WALL-E should have won last year's best picture but was not even nominated even though it was far better then anything that was up to bat.

UP was Snubbed in the 2010 Oscars, i doubt anyone could claim HL was better then UP.
