Should Win - Exit Through the Gift Shop
Will Win - Inside Job
Should Have Been Nominated - Waiting for 'Superman'
Commentary - The lack of nomination for Waiting for 'Superman' still stings as it wsa considered the frontrunner for the prize. I was thrilled with the Exit Through the Gift Shop nomination, but the controversy over his appearence (or lack there of), plus the fact that the Academy is full of a bunch of sticks in the mud who would not get the hip and funny nature of such a film, means that most likely it will not win. I am going with the safe choice, not a bad choice by any means, but the type of documentary we see once a year, a politically charged look at the world around us.
