As many of you know, the 83rd Annual Academy Awards are coming up. Personally, I am a very big movie watcher, and I am very excited! Last year, while I was watching the Academy Awards, I had wished that I had gone to see more of the movies that had been nominated. This year, I noticed that many of the movies are still in theaters so I wanted to see them before the awards. Plus, both my favorite actress and my favorite actor (Natalie Portman, and James Franco) stared in two of the movies nominated. While I was looking up the movies, I noticed that almost all of the movies that are in theaters and were nominated are rated "R". This was very frustrating to me, because my mom does not usually mind if I watch rated "R" movies, but by law, I cannot see them without an adult in theatres. This also became very irritating when my friends and I wanted to plan a movie night, but we realized that all the movies that appealed to us were rated "R". How do you feel about the Academy Awards nominations? I hope that next year more PG-13 movies are nominated!
