Academy Awards Best Picture 2011

Hi folks, I know how much y'all love the Oscars, so I've made it my business to check out all of this year's nominations for Best Picture.
Here for your reading enjoyment, are the 2011 runners and riders.
127 Hours
What's it about? A guy gets his arm trapped while out hiking. He has to chop it off to escape.
Is it any good? Yes. Very good. If you like 'Into the Wild' and 'Touching the Void' you'll love this.
Will it win? No. Beaufoy and Boyle just got a gong with Slumdog Millionaire. Won't happen again.
Should it win? No. While it's very good, it's a one-dimensional story.
Trivia: This is why you really should tell someone where you're going before you set off into the wilderness. Especially alone.
The Kids Are All Right
What's it about? Two teenagers conceived by artificial insemination make contact with the guy who donated the sperm. By the way, their parents are lesbians.
Is it any good? Yes. Surprisingly good. Although it's hard to go wrong with Annette Benning and Julianne Moore.
Will it win? No. Compared to the likes of 'Ordinary People' (winner in 1983) it doesn't hold a candle.
Should it win? No. It's good, even very good, but it doesn't have that wow factor.
Trivia: Whoever thought that sperm donation was a good idea?
The King's Speech
What's it about? King George VI, the present Queen of England's father. Stammering.
Is it any good? Yes, it's excellent. It works both as a historical drama and a very personal story.
Will it win? No.
Should it win? Yes. It has bo...
