Oh Helena deserves this award, she was amazing in The King's Speech. Also, congrats to Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 on their two nominations. This will be an epic year for Potter

I don't think "DH: Part II" will be recognized in any of the major categories next year, like Picture, Director, Screenplay, Actor etc., but honestly, I don't think it really deserves to. All of the movies, including the Chris Columbus ones but even more once he left, have been very very flawed in terms of overall storytelling and complexity in characterization, especially when you compare them to the AMAZINGLY well-told stories and fleshed-out characters in the original books.
But I definitely think that the the series should have gotten WAYYYYY more than just one or two technical categories each. I think every single Harry Potter film actually deserved to be nominated in ALL of the "techies". Especially cinematography, visual effects, and art direction, but also score, film editing, and the sound categories. Hopefully we'll see "DH: Part II" pop up in all of those | |

Haven't seen the King's Speech yet, but I sure hope Helena wins! And I wish that DH got nominated for more categories too, but oh well. Hopefully Part II will be like LOTR 3 next year (w/ so many nominations!) , but I guess that's asking for a bit too much. 
I'm gonna be watching that day!

I think I just got teary-eyed. Harry Potter FINALLY garnered special effects and art direction (which is what I'm DYING to do for a living) nominations! :') Let's go for the win.
UGH, the King's Speech is so beautiful. Helena & Alexandre deserve the nod.
