many of you may believe this movie was excellent but ask yourself do you think it deserves 6 academy awards. the answer is obviously NOT. I couldn't believe Avatar which is in fact a better movie than this won only 3 Oscars I mean that's a humiliation but there is something I will like to share with you Nicolas Chartier, a producer of Best Picture nominee The Hurt Locker, was banned from attending the ceremony by the Academy due to a violation of Oscar rules after Chartier sent e-mail to Academy members, advising them to vote for his film in the Best Picture category and not the equally nominated Avatar.The producer has since apologized for his actions. However it was to late he convinced most of the voters to vote reason why the hurt locker won both Best director and Best picture. The hurt locker is the lowest grossing film on winning Best picture and the movie is not that good it gets dull after a while i really prefer other nominees such as sector 9, up, inglorious basterds and off course AVATAR.
