Sigourney Weaver is apparently bitter about “Avatar” not winning the Oscar for best picture.

“Jim didn’t have breasts, and I think that was the reason,” Weaver told Brazilian news site Folha Online over the weekend. “He should have taken home that Oscar.”

In a stunning rebuke hinting at frustration in the “Avatar” camp — who applauded gracefully when “The Hurt Locker” also took the Best Picture Oscar — Weaver added, “In the past, ‘Avatar’ would have won because they [Oscar voters] loved to hand out awards to big productions, like ‘Ben-Hur.’ Today it’s fashionable to give the Oscar to a small movie that nobody saw.”

Hmmm – well Hurt Locker won. I think I have met about 2 people that work in the industry that actually think Avatar should have won….just because it cost $300 mil doesn’t mean it deserves an Oscar.
