Mila kunis deserved to be nominated too... <br />I think that James Franco desrves to win best actor as his performance in 127 hours is just brilliant, and Natalie portman deserves to win for Black Swan...<br />Even last time the academy made mistakes by not nominating Tobey Maguire for Brothers and the biggest one was not awarding Avatar for best Picture.

I wonder how it didn't get nominated? It was eligible, right? I mean, it wasn't a great movie, but there were components of it which deserved some Oscar attention.<br /><br />Jeez, Shutter Island should have been nominated. Especially for best actor. Leo owned in that movie. I guess that was just a case of being released so early in the year that it was somewhat forgotten. I haven't seen Another Year, but I heard some really great things about Manville. <br /><br />Ha, this is definitely a Nolan run blog!

It would have also been nice to see the Animal Kingdom script get nominated, but I wasn't all that surprised it didn't appear.<br /><br />I also agree about the editing nominations - both Scott Pilgrim and Inception rely on editing to tell their story far more than your average film.<br /><br />Tron: Legacy's score was the most outrageous absense this year - it's my absolute favourite soundtrack of 2010, and made a weak film far more watchable.<br /><br />Other big disappointments were Black Swan not getting nominated in the sound categories, and Shutter Island not getting nominated at all. Should be up for Direction, Actor, Picture, Costume, Cinematography & Editing...at least in my opinion<br /><br />I wasn't all that taken with either Hershey or Kunis' performances. If you ask me, the biggest snub in that category was Lesley Manville from Another Year...she deserves to take home that award, but she wasn't even nominated!<br /><br />PS I love all the Nolan love on this blog! Memento is either my one or two favourite film of all time, and The Dark Knight is also in my top ten.Tom Clifthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10969940401754806603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2587775651487578742.post-10094596465814599692011-02-03T19:46:13.367+13:002011-02-03T19:46:13.367+13:00Lesya - I lost all respect for the Oscars that day...<b>Lesya</b> - I lost all respect for the Oscars that day. Now I'm only mildly excited for them. You don't just ignore the Nolan. <br /><br /><b>Aiden</b> - That was one that I was angry about, too! The soundtrack was gooooooood. I really want Hans Zimmer to win that category for Inception, but I'd be happy if Reznor gets it.Stevee Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12284769251750574447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2587775651487578742.post-1400722234122512892011-02-03T10:07:54.076+13:002011-02-03T10:07:54.076+13:00You said it, sister.

One thing about...Spot on, every single one of the.<br /><br />One thing about Mila Kunis that I loved (besides my predetermined affection stemming back to That 70's Show): Nina is telling her to back off after she [Lily] told the director that she [Nina] had been crying, and she [Lily] just cocks her head back a bit, shifts her weight, the whole getup, and says, in the best casual/bitchy/surprised/conspiratorial/whatever delivery, "Okay".<br /><br />And that's my story that you honestly didn't give two shits about. Lovely write-up.Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08085105568601878075noreply@blogger.com
