James Cameron vs. Kathryn Bigelow

The Hurt Locker vs. Avatar this year? Nope. Its Ex-Husband vs. Ex-Wife.

So who will win? My guess is Avatar. Its not a great film, but its full of special effects and movies are eye candy. Though The Hurt Locker has many nice scenes and good moments, Avatar is 3D blue Gumby graphics at its best(so far!). The Hurt Locker just has a crazy guy running around getting off on being unsafe in bomb-defusing which creates more action scenes. The camera zooming in and out to create more tension didn't do much to add to the confusion. Avatar seems to only care about showing off 3D effects. Maybe there is hope that Inglourious Basterds could win Best Picture.

The worst part is that James Cameron said he could do without another statue cause he has so many of them already. We'll see in a few more days.
