So Mr. Oscar, what do you really know about films?

As we all known, this Sunday saw the 84th Academy Awards and it was mainly dominated by The Artist and Hugo. Full credit to both Michel Hazanavicius and Martin Scorsese. However, let's just hope that not every director decides to copy The Artist and be a silent movie. Mind you, all of Michael Bay's films just go BOOM BANG CRASH and PHWOAR. Hugo has proven to be the only film released where 3D has made sense. Apart from that, 3D is dead as far as I'm concerned. That's what happens when more people go and see Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides in 2D than 3D, The Hangover: Part II does better at the box office than 3D films and directors re-release classic films (The Lion King and Star Wars) and crap (Titanic) in 3D. It's the same film as before, but now the audience has to wear a pair of stupid glasses.

Going back to the Academy Awards, as always they get things wrong. It is disappointing that Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy didn't get the satisfaction it deserved. It missed out on Best Adapted Screenplay to The Descendants, but at least Gary Oldman was nominated for Best Actor. It was a long overdue nomination for an actor as professional as him. That wasn't the biggest oversight of these awards.

Why, for crying out loud, wasn't Senna even in the long list for Best Documentary? Clearly, it was the best documentary of the year and thank God it was recognised at the BAFTAs, winning Best Documentary and Best Editing. Personally, it was my favourite film of the year. It is about so much more than Formula 1 and I love the fact that it isn't just about racing. It concentrates on the difficult relationship between Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost. In the final third or so of the film, I was silent. I didn't want to make any noise, because I knew what was coming. The film is a brilliant tribute to the greatest driver ever.

Also, We Need To Talk About Kevin wasn't nominated for anything at the Academy Awards. At the BAFTAs it was nominated for Best Director (Lynne Ramsey), Best British Film and Best Actress (Tilda Swinton). I saw it for the first time today and I thought it was chilling, especially Ezra Miller's performance, well directed and very red. That's a compliment It is also a fantastic lead performance from Tilda Swinton and good to see John C. Reilly in a serious role. If you watch it from the beginning and find it difficult to understand because there are bits from different times, don't worry; it will make sense in the end. Plus, I like the line "Why would I not know the context? I am the context." What I love though is a comment on the poster and DVD box from Lionel Shriver: "A Brilliant adaptation of my novel". Self publicity.

These are two grave omissions from the Academy Awards, which is why what they don't recognise the Kermode Awards do. The Kermode Awards, named after the BBC film critic Mark Kermode, are awarded to films and individuals every year. There is one main rule: you cannot win a Kermode for a category that you've been nominated in for an Oscar. Previous winners of Kermode Awards in the past have included Jonny Greenwood (Best Music Score 2008 - There Will Be Blood), David Cronenberg (Best Director 2008 - Eastern Promises), Andy Serkis (Best Actor 2010 - Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll), William Ivory (Best Screenplay 2011 - Made In Dagenham) and most famously Christopher Nolan (Best Director 2011 - Inception). Here is the list of winners of the 2012 Kermode Awards:

• Best Musical - Benda Billili
• Best Documentary - Senna
• Best Actress - Olivia Colman (Tyrannosaur) and Tilda Swinton (We Need To Talk About Kevin)
• Best Actor - Michael Fassbender (Shame)
• Best Director - Lynne Ramsey (We Need To Talk About Kevin)
• Best Film - We Need To Talk About Kevin

This is where you can voice your opinion. What I would like to know from all of you is what do think are the best films/actors/actresses/directors/etc. that the Academy Awards have neglected. For example, The Shawshank Redemption may be the greatest film ever, but it did not win a single Oscar. So, you can leave your nominations in the comments box below. Whatever you put, it must be better than either Titanic or Driving Miss Daisy.
