The King's Speech
Much like twelve months ago the fight for Best Picture at Sunday's Oscars is a two horse race, and has been for sometime.
Last year we saw the might of Avatar, which went on to be the biggest movie of all time, take on The Hurt Locker - with the small budgeted movie coming out on top.
And 2011 sees America take on UK as The Social Network goes head to head with The King's Speech for the biggest prize in movies.
The spoils have been shared between the two movies with The Social Network taking the Golden Globe and The King's Speech winning the Bafta.
It also looks like thing will be pretty even on the night as David Fincher should take Best Director with Colin Firth the smoking hot favourite for Best Actor.
Screenplay awards should also be split between the pair with Aaron Sorkin collecting Best Adapted Screenplay and David Seidler walking away with Best Original Screenplay.
But who are you backing for Best Picture?
The Social Network took the box office by storm when it was released at the back end of last year - going on to make $220 million.
The movie received critical acclaim as David Fincher's directing was once again praised while Jesse Eisenberg and Andrew Garfield saw their star rise a little further - no doubt the movie played a hand in Garfield's casting as Spider Man.
It's a sharp, witty and yet well balanced script from Sorkin brought to life by the directing class that is Fincher.
And while the movie is about the birth of an online phenomenon at it's heart are old fashioned themes of loyalty, betrayal and greed.
The King's Speech is a movie that seems to have swept everyone away since it's release earlier this year.
It has turned Colin Firth into the toast of Hollywood as he has won every award over the past few weeks and looks certain to walk away with the Oscar.
The King's Speech is a very personal journey of King George VI as he tries to overcome the stammer that has plagued him all his life.
It's a gripping and yet tender tale of a man who just wants to be heard and, with the help of Lionel Logue, he leads a country into war.
Once again the script is superb focusing on the personal battle rather than the bigger picture - this allows audiences to go on this journey and struggle with George.
It's beautifully shot and the performances from Firth, Helena Bonham Carter and Geoffrey rush are superb.
To win Best Picture... The King's Speech!
The Oscar winners will be announced Sunday 27th February.
