Sci-Fi and the Academy Awards

[Dan F]

For the first time in history two Sci-Fi movies have been nominated for best picture! I haven't seen Avatar yet, but I really love District 9.

There have been only a few other Sci-Fi films to receive a best picture nomination, notably A Clockwork Orange, Star Wars, and E.T..

It would be great to see one of these win, usually the best picture Oscar goes to some movie I will never see...

I really hope its not Avatar. I'm so sick of that movie. I never saw all of D9 but what I did see was pretty good, I'd say they deserve an Oscar a lot more than James Cameron.
