How To Train Your Dragon and Despicable Me were both good movies. The latter probably is not "Oscar worthy" but it was cute as hell and had a great soundtrack. How To Train Your Dragon was better than Toy Story 3 but just by a smidgen. At least in my opinion.

The Oscars are too political anyway. This is the second time Nolan got snubbed; I believe Dark Knight was negated from Best Picture (insofar that they upped the Best Picture from 5 to 10 films). I look at the Oscars as a good guide for cinema, and nothing more. I'd say that the Best Actor/Actress categories are the most interesting portion of the awards. On the other hand, can you believe that shit last year with Sandra Fucking Bullock winning for the most vanilla movie/performance on earth, The Blind Side? Okay, so I retract my statement. The Best Actress/Actor crap is rigged too.
