So far, only two precursor winners (where the Oscar winner was nominated) haven't matched: Sound Mixing went to True Grit from CAS and the ADG gave their prize to Inception.

It was a very interesting score, but it is odd for the Oscars to give this award to something so minimalist. From this decade, the only other winner that comes even close to this style would be BABEL. All the other past winners in the past ten were more rich and traditional scores. How can THE KING'S SPEECH lost costume, set, and score but still win Best Picture? This is turning into a very odd Oscar night.

I think its win here MAY be a sign that it's going to win because if the Academy, as a whole, voted for an unconventional score such as this, they probably voted for it in Best Picture.OscarGuy wrote:The Awards are not giving much indicationrolotomasi99 wrote:So...THE SOCIAL NETWORK is going to win Best Picture?
At least that's what I think.
