BEST ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY
There's an interesting fight: Inception Vs The King's Speech Vs The Kids Are All Right.
While most people say that it's all between David Seidler and Christopher Nolan, I must say that Lisa Cholodenko and Stuart Blumberg must be in contention to take the Oscar home. Let's see the things this way: we have The King's Speech, a movie with Best Picture potential; we have Inception, a dazzling movie and extremly smart sci-fi movie written by Christopher Nolan who was unfairly snubed in the Best Director category; we have The Kids Are All Right, a smart comedy-drama with really good lines, good story, good characters and important themes about family;
Well, I must admit that the biggest contenders are Inception and The King's Speech and one of them will win the Best Original Screenplay Oscar, and, in spite of thinking that Inception SHOULD win, The King's Speech will take the prize home because of being the favorite in the Best Picture race.

BEST ORIGINAL SCORE
We have a Inception Vs The Social Network battle here. While Hans Zimmer's score for Inception is something GREAT/FANTASTIC, completly Oscar-worthy, Reznor's work for The Social Network is not so "BIG" but it gives a lot of emotional depht to the movie scenes.
There are two kinds of scores battling for the Oscar this year: an alternative one, that connects with the emotions of the movie in a very subtle way; and one epic work that makes the movie dazzling!
But are completly Oscar-worthy and I like them both. Inception may win one more artistic/technical category and stay away from the big ones or The Social Network may be the boy of the eyes of the Academy and score as much prizes as it deserves...
It's an almost unpredictable category, but I can't forget that TSN won the Critics' Choice Award and the Golden Globe of Best Score (but didn't get a BAFTA nomination) and Inception won the BAFTA of Best Sound (the equivalent of Best Score) and it was nominated for the Golden Globe and the Critics' Choice Award of the same category. Such a difficult decision!...
my next post will be my winner predictions of the Oscars 2011, come here and have a look at 20th February...
