Dan Vinton: The God of all Oscars

by Tyler

He won the Oscar Nomination Smackdown and now, Daniel Vinton has won the title of God of All Oscars with a win in the KVNU/AndyAtTheMovies.com Oscar Pick’em contest.

The contest was close, with the Best Picture winner (“The Hurt Locker“) determining the winner of the challenge. Dan’s 37 points bested second-place Andy’s 34. Tyler Riggs and Aaron Peck both pulled a 33, while everyman Harry Caines brought up the rear with a 28.

    Aaron Peck selected “Avatar” for sound mixing. I’m not going to update the graphic just for that, but am posting this for the record.

    Congrats, Daniel. I knew midway through the telecast I should have picked The Hurt Locker. But hey, somebody had to stick up for the true best picture of the year, right?

    What a bunch of political bullshit that was.
    Hurt locker running away with everything it did.

    Winning sound mixing over Avatar? PLeeze..
    Great and wonderful! A woman finally won best director!
    But then to give them best pic? What a joke.

    Well its not the first time a completely mediocre script and mediocre film ran away with the goods.
    But then why should i be surprised? They freely gave Bullock an oscar too!

    Hey everybody! Its free Oscars to go around!

    The real tragedy is that everyone is focusing on the fact that a women won, instead of the best director won. It shouldn’t matter what her gender or race is! And I still have no desire to see Avatar! Great job on both of your picks. I love your website! Thank you for all the great reviews. 2009 was a great year of entertainment!

      BTW, I agree. I hate the Oscar sideshow. It irritated me that Babs had to get her two cents in. I did like Monique’s speech. I thought hers was short and classy.

    I liked Avatar, but I definitely have talked to enough people who didn’t. Frankly, Kathy, I think you’d be surprised at how much you would enjoy the movie, especially considering your misgivings.

    Nick – I refuse to believe you didn’t like it. Never!

      Don’t you know hooking USB ports is the ONLY way to exchange bodily fluids?

      In case you were wondering, and I’m sure you weren’t, but just in case, I still haven’t seen it.
