Let's start with last year, what films would've also been nominated if there were 10 nominees? The Dark Knight Doubt Revolutionary Road The Wrestler Wall-E |

2008: Changeling The Dark Knight Doubt Wall-E The Wrestler 2007: The Bourne Ultimatum The Diving Bell and the Butterfly Into the Wild Ratatouille Sweeney Todd 2006: Blood Diamond Children of Men Dreamgirls Pan's Labyrinth United 93 2005: The Constant Gardener King Kong Pride & Prejudice Syriana Walk the Line 2004: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind The Incredibles Hotel Rwanda The Passion of the Christ Vera Drake 2003: City of God Cold Mountain Finding Nemo In America Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (or The Last Samurai) 2002: Adaptation. Catch Me If You Can (or Minority Report) Far From Heaven My Big Fat Greek Wedding (or Spider-man) Talk to Her 2001: Amélie Black Hawk Down In the Bedroom Mulholland Dr. Shrek So presuming I was at least somewhat accurate, it seems like the Oscars could've included a much greater variety of films (and definitely could've had higher viewership). |

some of you are thinking way too broad. The 10 BP noms would look more like NBR's top 10 than anything. |

NBR 2007 List THE ASSASSINATION OF JESSE JAMES, ATONEMENT,THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM (I hate this film), THE BUCKET LIST (Did Reiner bribe someone?), INTO THE WILD, JUNO, THE KITE RUNNER, LARS AND THE REAL GIRL (Good acting, but not BP worthy), MICHAEL CLAYTON (hated this film, but it had BP anyway), SWEENEY TODD (good, not BP worthy). |

Why is everyone pencilling in The Changeling? That thing was dead in the water I think it'd be The Dark Knight Wall-E The Wrestler Doubt Revolutionary Road/Vicky Cristina Barcelona |

Shack wrote: Why is everyone pencilling in The Changeling? That thing was dead in the water LOL, no. - Three Oscar noms, among them a leading acting nom. - Eight BAFTA noms, among them best Director (RR got four and VCB got one!) - BFCA Best Picture nom (neither RR nor VCB got one) - Made NBR's Top Ten of the year (RR and VCB both missed) And it also was the biggest grosser of the three. Far from dead, I'd say. |

Eastwood would get in with The Changeling or Gran Torino. There's no way he would've missed with 10 movies in the mix. |
