Although we all know this is going to be the last award handed out, it really sucks because it's the award that really matters. Which movie of 2010 was the best. Cause if you think about it, the movie could've been the worst movie you've ever seen, but the actor/actress really SHONE in that role. Music was awesome. Design was fantastic. Beautifully written.....and all that. But there is always that if factor in the other categories that this one doesn't have. This is the BEST movie category, determining which movie was the very best. Digressing.
Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role
Nominees:
Javier Bardem for Biutiful (2010)
Jeff Bridges for True Grit (2010) **The fact that Jeff Bridges gets nominated twice in a row is like Meryl Streep status.
Jesse Eisenberg for The Social Network (2010)
Colin Firth for The King's Speech (2010) **Colin's got this. Mainly because his is the only name that doesn't begin with a J.
James Franco for 127 Hours (2010)

Jeremy Renner for The Town (2010) **MY GOODNESS, I really want him to win.
Mark Ruffalo for The Kids Are All Right (2010)

Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role
Nominees:
I think this is actually quite up in the air. I want to say it could be Melissa Leo, so much so I think it's about 90% accurate that it'll be her. But never say never to Helena Bonham-Carter. I hope the Academy won't be disparaging of her work.
