Vilka får årets Rymd-Åskar?

Okej, så har då årets Oscarskandidater tillkännagivits. Jag slänger in kommentarer på ett par ställen härunder, men det är ju lite svårt att uttala sig, då flera filmer fortfarande inte har haft Sverigepremiär - och MONEYBALL har fortfarande inte nåt Malmö.

Best Picture: "The Artist,'' "The Descendants,'' "Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close,'' "The Help,'' "Hugo,'' "Midnight in Paris,'' "Moneyball,'' "The Tree of Life,'' "War Horse.'' (Snälla rara Oscarsjuryn, vad ni än gör: ge inte priset till THE TREE OF LIFE!)

Supporting Actor: Kenneth Branagh, "My Week with Marilyn''; Jonah Hill, "Moneyball''; Nick Nolte, "Warrior''; Christopher Plummer, "Beginners''; Max von Sydow, "Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close.'' (Plummer var lysande i BEGINNERS - men visst vore det kul om von Sydow får guldgubben)

Animated Feature Film: "A Cat in Paris''; "Chico & Rita''; "Kung Fu Panda 2''; "Puss in Boots''; "Rango.'' (Jag gillade ju verkligen EN KATT I PARIS - men även RANGO är en utmärkt film. KUNG FU PANDA 2 gillade jag inte alls, CHICO & RITA vet jag inte vad det är, och MÄSTERKATTEN I STÖVLAR har inte gått upp här än)
