I'm betting there'll be at least one from The Muppets, the one from The Help, maybe the Hugo one, one from Winnie the Pooh.

why does this category even exist? very few films actually use songs as a major part of the film.

I agree, this category has passed it's prime. - - back in the day, movie songs were also pop hits that you heard in high rotation on the radio - - I can still sing many, many past Oscar nominated songs just by seeing their title (and they weren't just from Musicals - - they worked songs into almost every movie, often through a featured montage or some such device).

This year, Hello Hello from Gnomeo and Juliet is the only one I can still remember the tune to.

This Chris Cornell song from Machine Gun Preacher is very nice. Hope it's nominated, but I doubt it will be. Same goes for the song by the National from Win Win.

They should change it to like "Best Soundtrack." Now that would be awesome. Drive for the win :P.

Then we'd be getting into MTV Movie Awards territory.
