Award Season Reaches Its Long-Awaited Conclusion

VS.

This will be my final Oscar post before the 82nd Annual Academy Awards finally air when my next post will then be the ceremony wrap-up and analysis.

And, of course, during the actual ceremony feel free to follow me on Twitter for live updates on the winners.

After months and months of believing "Up in the Air" or "Precious" were the front-runners of award season, a lot has happened, and now we are left watching a battle of David versus Goliath between "The Hurt Locker" and "Avatar." Here are two films on the complete opposite side of the cinematic spectrum, and yet they face off against each other. Who will take home the most awards, and most importantly, the top prize of Best Picture? It's still really anybody's guess as even the experts are split with their opinions.

Here are the final predictions from the New York Post, Roger Ebert, Rope of Silicon and Hit Fix.

Whose side are you on? Is it Pandora-takes-all or time for the underdog to shine? Find out when awards season reaches its conclusion on Sunday night, 8 p.m. on ABC.
