Vic Mancuso’s OSCAR PICKS 2010!

Hey!! Vic Mancuso here! I have to make this one quick, I’m about to hit the road. Sunday is Oscar night. Unfortunately, my invite was lost in the mail, but I’ve decided to go out there anyway for the after parties! According to Google Maps it will take me 1 day 22 hours to drive from Jersey to Hollywood, so I gotta leave within the next 15 mins if I’m gonna make it.

This year, the Oscar Academy has decided to nominate a shitload more movies than usual. There are 10 nominees for Best Picture, when normally there are only 5. This year, the Best Picture nominees are…

Avatar

The Blind Side

District 9

An Education

The Hurt Locker

Inglourious Basterds

Precious

A Serious Man

Up

Up in the Air

These 10 movies all have one thing in common.

Vic hasn’t seen any of them.

To be honest, I can’t say if they’re good or not since I didn’t see them, but I can tell you the trailers for all these movies were crap, so I passed on them.

When will Hollywood learn? If you want to put butts in seats, you have to touch our hearts. Study what makes “G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra” work and you’ll have a lot less box office bombs people.

If I had it my way, these are the films that would be nominated for the coveted golden statue I call Oscar statue.

Cameron Diaz’s “The Box”

A movie that boggles my mind. It keeps you guessing up until the surprise ending when Cameron Diaz dies.

“G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra”

A heart wrenching war film that could cause terrorists around the world to declare peace if we dropped G.I. Joe DVDs on them, instead of bombs.

“The Happening”

M. Night Shamalong is a genius. In this movie he figures out how to scare you with nothing but nothing.

“Land of the Lost”

Hilarious. I haven’t laughed this hard in weeks.

“A Dangerous Man”

After serving 6 years for a crime he didn’t commit, Steven Seagal is released from jail with an apology from the State of Arizona. Within hours of his freedom, he unluckily bears witness to a cop killing by Chinese mafia who have a kidnapped girl and a bag of drug money. In this action packed thrill ride, Seagal agreed to help the girl to get her uncle back to safety, he gets some help from the Russian mafia, who’s boss owes him a favor for saving his son from the Chinese cop killing action mentioned above. Steven Seagal is back! I saw this front row at a limited engagement and Seagal still has it brother!

And the winner is… “A Dangerous Man”

I have to give it to this movie. When shit goes down, you can always count on Steven Seagal to make things right. Seagal is one of the most underrated actors in Hollywood right now, besides Chuck Norris. In one of my favorite scenes, Seagal teaches some punks one of life’s important rules…never talk about another man’s mother, unless you can kick his ass. Watch this scene now on the video screen below…

That’s all for now. The car’s warmed up and I gotta get out of here. Until next week, Vic signing off.
Hollywood, here I come.
