The...My very first reaction was...<BR/>No Springsteen?!? They only used up 3 slots, why not? <BR/><BR/>And I'm in the chorus, where's "Dark Knight"? Every year, the producers moan "No one is watching our 5 hour back-slapping session!!" and, this year, they could have pulled in huge numbers by throwing a Best Pic nom to a film that made craploads of money and managed to win the critics as well. And, this year, once they've handed the statue to "City of God for Dummies", they'll go "No one watched!" Buffoons. Not even a Best Director nod for Nolan??? Or even Score? <BR/><BR/>BUT.....good on them for recognizing "In Bruges" for screenplay and the great Richard Jenkins for his amazing work in "The Visitor."Waynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05688329158692962476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1765008161115599620.post-70715887633535843202009-01-22T11:00:00.000-08:002009-01-22T11:00:00.000-08:00I will finally be seeing The Wrestler this Sunday....I will finally be seeing The Wrestler this Sunday...last new film from 2008.<BR/><BR/>And yes, a glaring oversight on the part of the Academy with the snubbing of The Dark Knight.

It's the biggest freakin' movie of the year! How does that not get nominated.<BR/><BR/>And I can't believe "The Wrestler" wasn't nominated for best song.Joelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16564846610934480928noreply@blogger.com
