My name is Danish Adams; I am one of the biggest admirer's of Academy Awards from last decade or more. I follow them every year till the last award distributed that night. It is my passion to know the outcomes of every nominated category.  On 26th February 2012, the 84th Academy Awards ceremony will take place in Hollywood California.

The 84th annual Academy Awards in coming tomorrow and I have to say I am really ecstatic about it.

Series: Members of Films and Books vote their picks for the 84th Annual Academy Awards



Being asked to vote for the Academy awards 2012, I was really tempted to cast away my votes on the popular or most expected to win nominees. Luckily, I found the courage to step outside the lines and vote from the heart.

As far as the best picture award is concerned, I might disappoint a lot of readers by voting for Midnight in Paris. Apart from a beautiful cart-postal of contemporary Paris, Woody Allen managed to give us a look at Paris at its best.

Furthermore, a lot of people must have…

Movie Review—The Devil Inside: Combination of interesting script and bad direction

2 Stars out of 5



Year 2011 w best for movies. But the first big release of 2012, The Devil Inside recovered twice of its budget on the opening day itself.  The Devil Inside is like other horror flicks. It is about tackling exorcism. It has attracted a large audience. I got a chance to enjoy the screening of The Devil Inside on the opening night itself. Tickets were not entirely sold out, but theater was almost full.

The movie revolves around a man with a digital camera, who intentionally captures something amazing and extraordinary. The films follows Isabella as she investigates the  incarceration of her mother. She believes that…

The Academy Awards, an awards ceremony that recognizes the best in film, is an annual show that is known for choosing excellent films and actors to recognize. The show has many categories ranging from acting to design. The most exciting part of the Academy Awards is the best film category. Judges look at all of the elements of a film and choose the best overall film. The films this year are all excellent movies and very entertaining as well. The silent film The Artist is a favourite among critics, and the child's film Hugo is also a frontrunner for the best film award. However, even though these films offer competition, the best choice is The Help.…
