Hurt is Hurting!

In my next life I want to be Kathryn Bigelow. That said, what a week for the amazing film she directed, The Hurt Locker. First we have James Cameron on "60 Minutes" saying that Bigelow (his ex-wife, by the way!) will win Best Director at the Academy Awards this Sunday. He sours the prediction by saying, "She would be the first female director to win. It's too good of a story to resist." This wouldn't have bothered me so much if he weren't really saying : "I should win forAvatar, but Bigelow will win because of her vagina." Avatar should NOT win for best director, or best film. Visually captivating, pretty colors, lame story, way too long. As soon as I got over that,The Hurt Locker producer Nicolas Chartier was banned from attending this Sunday's Academy Awards because he awfully stupidly sent e-mails to academy members, urging them to vote for his film. WOW. How many flavors of moron can you name in that campaign? And now, Army Sergeant Jeffrey S. Sarver, is suing the makers of The Hurt Locker, claiming the story was all about him and that he even coined the phrase "the hurt locker." Yikes. Well hopefully things will look up for, The Hurt Locker, this Sunday when the film sweeps all or most of the nine Oscars it's been nominated for. Or at least win more than Avatar does. Bigelow and Cameron married? Huh? Well, at least it only lasted two years.
