Oscar, Oscar, Oscar

The Academy Awards are on tonight, and to celebrate I thought I’d post photos in honor of some of the nominees:

Winter’s Bone:


The Fighter:


(The flamingo in the lower-right corner is Amy Adams.)

The Kids Are All Right:



127 Hours:


(If Aron Ralston had been a starfish like this one, he wouldn’t have worried so much about having to lose an arm—not just because he’d still have so many more, but because the arm would regenerate, as would a new body from the severed arm.)

The Social Network:


Who needs Facebook when you're in each other's faces?

True Grit (or at least true dirt):


...this lion cub has just seen Inception:


…And finally, a movie that wasn’t nominated but should have been, Get Low:


There’s a certain resemblance to Robert Duvall, wouldn’t you say?
