Academy Awards

The Academy Awards is due to start soon on TV and I will be watching with my brother. This is the first year that I don't even know all the movies that are nominated. I usually know more about the films but somehow I've been busy with other things and haven't paid much attention. Of course, this is also the first year that 10 movies are nominated, not the usual 5. As some of you know, I love movies, but I don't think I've seen that many of the nominated ones this year. My brother keeps telling me I have to see Avatar and I want to, but I haven't got around to it yet. Hopefully I will get to see some of them in the next few weeks. It's fun to see all the stars arriving and see how they are all dressed. Also the two hosts are new this year so I'm curious to see how they do. Well, I have to turn on my TV- it's starting in just a few minutes.
