Fantasy versus Reality...and the winner is The Hurt Locker for Best Picture!
Best picture?!
Fantasy movies always amazed us: the children and adults. The imaginative creative minds of the artists who made animations work of wonder and awe. It bringsforth the amazing tales of grandeur, never before seen spectacular aura of panoramic views. Scenes you can only see through your imaginations and dreams. Talented animators and graphic artists helped create vivid tales of fantasy through these wonderful imaginative creations done by human hands and computer.No doubt the movie "Avatar" is a masterpiece. It is an escape to reality.
To others there is no greater strength in life than to see what is reality. Finding the truth to what is happening in our country and other parts of the world. We as a human being need to be aware of our environment and the nature of things so that we can find solutions to the many problems of misfortunes and misgivings. Humanity as a whole has a heart and soul and mind to think. Hurt Locker is a movie depicting the courage and bravery of the men and women in uniform (the armed forces) in battling evil forces.
Their occupation is not glamorous but rather decent and honorable. They were the true heroes. They fight against all odds. No amount of calamities can stop them to do what they are known for. They protect, support and serve the country and its people.
It is very timely, just so right that the movie "The Hurt Locker" featured the very best of courage and dignity in times of facing the ulterior ultimate disposal of weapons of mass destruction. Risking their lives to save the rest of humanity.
Avatar the movie made so much money, in millions > going billion of dollars! Wow! No one can beat that yet. Any politics involved in selecting the Best Picture winner? In my own opinion they both deserved the Oscar's award. One for fantasy and one for reality.
I haven't seen any of the movies I mentioned. Although the plot of the story gives me the reaction to conclude. Anyone has the right to be opinionated. Everyone has their own point of view. What matters to you anyway?
For Best Director the winner is Kathryn Bigelow. New director, who is the ex-wife of the director of Avatar, the movie. Good for her. It's her first directorial debut and she is already a winner at the Oscar's 82nd Award's Nite. Lucky woman. Then Sandra Bullock for Best Actress instead of Meryl Streep. Not that I don't like her winning it's just that I watched many of Sandra's movies and "The Blind Side" is not one of her best. Sorry. She could have won in movies such as "Lakehouse", The NET, Miss Congeniality or her movie as a witch together with Nicole Kidman. She had bronze, she was wearing silver gown, she had Oscar which is equivalent to gold. What a woman could ask for? She and Jodie Foster should have a movie together. Just a wish. Hehehe!
Then the Best Supporting Actor : Christoph Waltz (Inglorious Basterds), BSA: Mo'Nique (Push by Sapphire).
The entire Oscar Awards Nite is glamorous with all the men wearing the usual coat and tie and tuxedos while the women have luxurious gowns made by famous designers. I don't find the ceremony exciting. They all look tired and sick.
How about education? Oh well, EDUCATION BUILDS CHARACTER. Only if you have dedicated teachers who act as real teachers inside the school. Then I heard complaints too many students in one room. There are too many students not enough rooms and teachers. The budget for education is always priority in this part of the land. Everyone has the right to education. All of us need to learn. Even if the hard way. Though we don't want to die yet. Education need to be simple not complicated. After all its just one giant craft for kraft.
