Avatar (Mauro Fiore) won the top honors in the Cinematography category at the 82nd Annual Academy Awards tonight.
Here were the other films in the running:
Das weisse Band – Eine deutsche Kindergeschichte (2009): Christian Berger
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009): Bruno Delbonnel
The Hurt Locker (2008): Barry Ackroyd
Inglourious Basterds (2009): Robert Richardson
I watched Harry Potter the very first day it was released here.
This installment didnt impress me at all. Harry Potter cliched visual effects and screenplay. It had lot of open ends which will probably get explained in next and final installment(s – final part splitted into two). No surprise it kisses the dust in oscars.

Never seen a single ‘Hari Puttar’ film.
It seems Avatar loses a lot. Hurt Locker seems to be a sleeper hit at oscars
SearchIndia.com Responds:
Not happy about it. 🙁
Must be Hollywood’s liberal anti-war sentiments plus jealousy of Jim Cameron’s success.
