The New Tenants

Overall, this year's Academy Awards have been the battle between Avatar and The Hurt Locker. Each of them has their own fans and honestly I can't really make up my mind too. But maybe, and this is just maybe, when we compare something grandeur like Avatar-with the support of enormous budget with another movie which doesn't have such enormous budget, our subconsciousness will stand on the weaker side automatically. At least that is what happened to me most of the time, and i believe it might be different for others, so how about you guys? What do you think? Feel free to leave some comments! See you next year for another round of the Oscars then. ^^
