This awards season has been completely insane, and I am angered by the way a lot of it is going, however I feel that in terms of the films involved, this has been one of the best awards seasons ever - and that fact that this year's Oscars are so unpredictable is a testament to the quality.

So far, I have been mostly disappointed, and even angered by some of the winners this awards season, so I don't think the Oscars will be as much of a shock as say, the Golden Globes. I am still eagerly anticipating this year's Academy Awards, and I think, regardless of whether they are good or bad reasons, this is a ceremony which will be remembered.
