Silent movie 'The Artist' cleaned up at last night's Oscars, winning five awards

By giving awards to a gimmick such as The Artist, the Academy showed just how shallow their choices can be with the absolutely worst group of nominations they’ve every thrown together. Because of such an elitist tone, I for one boycotted the show this year. If you found the nominees as stuffy as I did, check out the Top 10 Movie Picks of 2011 at http://dregstudiosart.blogspot.com/2012/01/top-10-movie-picks-of-2011.html where you won’t see a single of the Academy’s nominees for Best Picture but you will get some movie artwork I drew up as well as the reviews!
