POLL: Which Film Should Win Best Picture at the Oscars?

The Academy Awards are Sunday. Which movie do you think should take home the big prize?

Brad, Angelina and George (as in Clooney) are some of the big-name stars set to walk the red carpet Sunday for the 84th annual Academy Awards.

Although we won’t be there in person, we’ll be watching the actors—and silently judging their fashion choices—from the comfort of our own homes.

Just because our readers aren’t the Hollywood insiders in charge of choosing this year’s winners (at least, we don’t think), that doesn’t mean your opinions don’t count.
