Oscar Noms

Ok...this year to me feels like a year where a number of former Oscar losers would DESTROY the field. I mean, geesh, could you imagine Saving Private Ryan in this year? It'd kill. Aw well, the Oscars are becoming worse and worse for me. I knew the film industry was crooked, but when Cannes premiered Oceans 13 last year....I knew there was something up.
And what is with Milk? All I've heard is how great Sean Penn is, and yet it's getting noms in numerous categories. Wha? The Dark Knight is nominated in nearly every category, and it isn't nominated for Best Pic? Wha? Every single actor with a pivotal role in Doubt is nominated.....and it DOESN'T get nominated for Best Pic? WHA?
Oh well, at least I can always rely on Best Animated Feature to be correct. Cause there are only three movies in that category every year and only one that's ever any good.

  1. How is it that Hoffman is a supporting actor in Doubt?
    How is it that Brad Pitt got nominated for doing nothing but standing still for the computers to do their work?
    Why do the even bother giving stuff like Kung Fu Panda a nomination? Can't they give that honor to some obscure foreign animated film?
    Who am i directing these questions towards?
