On March 7, 2010 the 82nd Academy Awards will take place, but not without some change. Ever since its inception in 1929 the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has given awards to the best motion pictures of the time. This year, the Academy Awards odds will revisit the past.
Academy Awards odds for the 2010 Best Picture Award will feature a larger field of nominees. Instead of 5 nominees, as has been the case for over 60 years, the Oscars betting odds will go back to the way things were in 1943: 10 nominees will be featured for Academy Awards odds.
For over ten of the Academy Awards odds’ first years, more than 5 films have been nominated to the Best Picture category. Nine of those years saw 10 nominees. A couple of years saw eight nominees, and a couple saw twelve. The last year of Academy Awards odds to see more than 5 nominees was 1943. That year, the classic film “Casablanca” was chosen for the Best Picture Award.
Last year of Academy Awards odds saw a number of excellent films receiving awards. The entire entertainment world had their eyes on The Dark Knight, as Heath Ledger received a posthumous Oscars betting odds award for Best Supporting Actor. Only one other actor has been posthumously nominated for the Best Supporting Actor award in the Academy Awards odds, and that was Ralph Richardson for his role as Lord Greystroke in “Greystroke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes”. Ledger was the first actor to receive the Oscars betting odds award.
“Slumdog Millionaire” took the world by surprise as it took home the award for Best Picture in the 81st Academy Awards odds, not to mention Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Original Score, Best Original Song, Best Sound Mixing, Best Cinematography, and Best Film Editing. In total, it won 8 of the 10 Oscars betting odds awards it was nominated for, but received not one single acting award nomination.
This year, which movies will be nominated to receive Academy Awards odds? The ballots have yet to be mailed, and it’s anyone’s guess what movies will be included. Will the new Star Trek movie be included in Academy Awards odds? There are a number of movies released in 2009 that could see at least one nomination.
