The five Best Actor nominees really seem locked up at this point, eh?

Anyway, good to see Munich and AHOV up there (and no Walk the Line?)

It's critics, so Walk the Line snub is expected. Nice looking lineup. The consensus for the top 6 to 7 contenders is forming in pretty much all categories.

Munich best editing? Editing is my biggest problem with the movie.

Woulda' never happened if they hadn't rejected me half a year ago.

If these were the Oscar nominees my love for this year would go up soooooooo much.

I thought it was masterful,especially in the begining.

Nice to Naomi sticking in it.

Mickey Rourke...is gaining steam? If he got nominated, that would be unbelievably rad.

If these were the Oscar nominations I would almost be pleased. Great to see the love for Munich for a change, except it's missing in the one category it should be a no-brainer nominee in - Cinematography.

Corpse Bride? CORPSE BRIDE? That's easily one of the worst movies I've seen in a long time. Like, I'd put it with Chronicles of Riddick. Why do they need an animated catagory anyway? Let them compete with the big boys. Beauty and the Beast didn't need no stinkin' animated catagory.

Crash takes up too many spaces, but those are otherwise perfect. I want the Oscar noms to look just like that.

Downfall!!! (Loyal, watch it!)

The Academy can't just fully ignore A History of Violence, methinks. Not after so much love....

I wonder (and hope) if Mickey Rourke might pull off a surprising nom at the Oscars. He's been gaining steam...

I will, today.

OWEN CLINE

History of Violence continues to impress me.

What an incredible film.

Good winners. Good tastes.

Go Reese and Maria Bello.

Very good selections. I'm glad that Sin City got some love, because it was one of the best films of the year. Should've been up for an Oscar for Best Picture, but that's not how it works.

Those acting winners are great.

Really, all their nominations in nearly every category bring me joy. I just wish John Williams was getting more recognition for his Revenge of the Sith score..

Mickey Rourke!
