I am very excited about a couple of things with these awards; I was rooting for a couple of movies – including District 9, which I have yet to see. AND yah, I can’t complain much about the winners because I loved the acting and the movies… and others we simply get left out until the Oscars to see them.. Except for Avatar which cleaned the floor with it’s competitors winning 6 awards.
I have yet to see Precious on the Ster-kinekor and Nu-metro release schedule which I receive on a weekly basis… IT IS NOWHERE on the line-up even though the dates I have are up until November.
