10 of the 23 Oscar categories will be announced live tomorrow morning at 5:30 AM Pacific Time/8:30 AM Eastern Time. You can watch it live on just about any of the morning news shows. I usually watch the announcements on NBC's Today Show.

They tend not to show the announcement of anything but the major awards (acting, directing, writing, and best pictures in a few categories) and save the more technical awards to their print press releases.
You'll be able to find the complete list of the award nominations that will be given out on Oscar Night on Oscar.com or any of another billion web sites.
And don't forget, there are a WHOLE LOT of other Academy Awards for technical achievements that are given out a few weeks before the Oscars as we know them.

1. Few films have gotten such universal acclaim, and the movie has already won significant awards for excellence from the Producers Guild of America and the Golden Globe awards.
2. AMPAS membership want to "reward" Peter Jackson for having the vision and the willingness to do perhaps the most massive project in cinematic history--hence the Best Picture and Best Director nods.
3. Mystic River--while a very good film, is a bit of a "downer" subject matter and relatively few films with seriously "downer" subject matter ever win Best Picture. Mind you, I think Tim Robbins is almost a shoo-in for Best Supporting Actor, and Sean Penn is in a close race with Bill Murray for Best Actor.
