Description
I wrote this little strip just before Sunday's Academy Awards. I have to admit, I found it pretty delicious that Cameron got beat out for Best Picture by his ex-wife with film that cost $16 million. I live for that kind of poetic irony.Related content

And Best Dirctor, which I thought was pretty awesome. That being said, I still have yet to watch The Hurt Locker.

He actually wanted Kathryn to win

James Cameron somehow managed to make a movie immune to criticism...

I found it funny that the two films everyone was fighting about weren't even the best on the list. District 9 and Inglourious Basterds were both kickass, and District 9's message was less preachy than Avatar's and better made than Hurt Locker, but not so much as a mention for them. Poor prawns.

The cherry on top: District 9 was the only one of those 4 movies that's on Netflix's instant Queue.
I haven't seen ANY of them, actually.
I've noticed many of the better movies are those that don't even get any attention.......
I'm also stating this now. I've been holding it in for a while.
I. HATE. AVATAR. =.= And I am NOT ashamed....

I for one really liked Basterds, but as with any Tarantino movie, I've heard mixed opinions on it. Lots of Nazi-scalping, movie-shooting fun, if you like that kind of thing and don't mind Tarantino taking a few liberties with how World War 2 played out.

I might look into it. 
Thank you.

Keep your Oscars. I'll take the $2.5 Billion...

Hehehe, awesome!
Avatar deserved every single technical and art award that it got, and deserved to miss out on all the rest, just like it did. A rare occasion of the Academy getting it right

Yeah, poor James... I mean: ex-wife?! Daaaamn!
Avatar may not have THE best-1st-class-one-of-its-kind-never-before-experienced-story and all, but it sure delivered (in every sense). 166 minutes of pure awesomness just asking for more!
Oscars tend to mark 9 out of 10 movies you absolutely do not need to see (ever). Out of which at least 7 will only leave you with a feeling you just wasted 90+ minutes of your precious life on some cheap bullshit.
Usually 8 out of that 10 movies are some weird creations you dont have the slightest chance to even hear about (before the oscars). And even then it is pointless, because you dont get to see it anywhere (and then there is the no-need-to-see it factor to be considered).
To make things better, every now and then there are just not enough "artistic" movies around so some nominations fall to the mainstream as well. Then there is 49% chance that the awards go to the better part of the mainstream lot (considering the planets in our solar system are aligned in the right manner at the right time in the right dimension).
Nice strip, BTW...

I wish Oscars would fall on my head.
I have mixed feelings about The Hurt Locker winning. I mean it seems like they always go for the whole psychological drama over everything.

And not just best movie but also best direction...Delicious!

True her's only cost like 16 million but then again only made about 19 million at the box office... where as his was over 300 million but made well over a billion and is still in theaters.
Still love your comic though

I was rather annoyed by that. I hadn't even heard of the movie that won best picture. And I honestly thought Avatar was a rather amazing movie. Some people just have no taste, I suppose.
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Avatar was an over-used plot, with intense special effects.
Hurt Locker was a wonderfully done, gripping film.
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Over-used plot. To my knowledge, Dances With Wolves, is one of the few other movies to really do that.
But you're entitled to your opinion.

actual bomb squad men in iraq hated the hurt locker, did you hear any complaints from aliens or ex-space marines? I did like the hurt locker more though XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Haha yes, because you not having heard of the other movie means every one else doesn't have taste.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
But it's understandable that I may not have heard of it. There were no commercials for it in my area. (To my knowledge.) And it only appeared on 500 screens throughput it's showing. Avatar appeared on more than 4 times that amount, on opening day, and that was for the 3D release alone. Also, it's important to note, I NEVER said it was a bad movie, I merely pointed out that I had never Heard of it until it won.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Saying Avatar didn't win because "Some people just have no taste" when you haven't seen the movie that won.
I'm done, I can't even muster up the strength to tell you how stupid that is.

Well that just goes to show, it's difficult to portray sarcasm in type.

Haven't seen "The Hurt Locker" although I do hope it won on its merits and not because it was about Iraq
