Avatar got both Director and BP nom. Lets go!

sauce07

Good job Inglourious Basterds

RichC2

Kathryn Bigelow vs James Cameron on director, Quentin nominated

Cloudy w/ a Chance of Meatballs and Fantastic Mr. Fox

No Ponyo (I just wasn't a fan of the 2nd half, and I normally love Miyazaki.), Robert Downey Jr in Sherlock Holmes, Karen O getting a nom

Groucho

I'm shocked that sackboy cartoon got nominated for best musical or comedy -- it's neither!

Chew

starman9000

Surprised that Where the Wild Things Are didn't get a nom. I have a lot of catching up to do.

Groucho

The reaction to that film was lukewarm at best.

As for supporting actor, there are two categories of people: those who think Christoph Waltz should win, and those who haven't seen Inglourious Basterds.

gryffinmaster

Looks about as expected with a few surprises, but the lack of Best Picture nominations for Moon and District 9 saddens me.

superdeluxe

Why no Foreign Nom for Red Cliffs?

RichC2

As much as I enjoyed Moon, I don't really see it being a best picture contender for most major awards.

District 9 I wasn't a huge fan of so no shock there for me.

Rypro 525

Best actress for Sandra for the Proposal???? what the fuck is that! I can see her for the Blind Side, but for that piece of shit?

for the Hangover getting a bp nod

Groucho

Who would you put in her place?

Giles

I think cause it out on import dvd and bluray - which is a shame really - cause it's one of Woo's best.

I think 'The White Ribbon' will win the award as it will also an Oscar too

Giles

I wasnt particularily wowed by Matt Damon's acting in INVICTUS

as much of the press seems to be gushing over PRECIOUS I really don't have any desire to see it.

Groucho

The full title for Precious is ridiculous.

Giles

I so want to go up to the ticket taker and say "one ticket to 'PRECIOUS: BASED ON THE NOVEL PUSH BY SAPPHIRE' - thank you"

Rypro 525

i would have thought she would have been nominated for Blind Side. Oh, and since you asked Charlotte Groinsberg for Antichrist. whoops miss read, i'll have to think about it

filmcraver

I can't believe Julie & Julia was nominated....what crap.

Groucho

Antichrist was a great musical or comedy!

clckworang

That was a comedy?!

Rypro 525

again, i missread. I'll prob have to think about who would be a better nom. but not Sandra for that movie, as it was painfully unfunny

rexinnih

islandclaws

Big to Tarantino for all those noms. He deserves 'em. I'd like to see IB walk away with at least one of those.

Daytripper

How about Zooey Deschanel for "(500) Days of Summer"? Rachel Weisz for "The Brothers Bloom"? Amy Adams for "Sunshine Cleaning"?

Daytripper

I don't get it.
