Hey, Silence Of The Lambs won after a February release! But moving to 2010 doesn't count as graveyard. Doesn't seem fair.

Inglourious Basterds should be revived by now.

Yeah, now with 10 nominees... never count out a Nazi/Jewish film, as we learned the hard way with The Reader :P

Exactly. If they don't know how to behave, and feel OK offending others, they get their ass kicked, so they'll think next time before opening their rotten mouths.

I think we can add 500 Days of Summer, which isn't going to get a thing.

I think it has a great shot at original screeplay and your hate is blinding you.

That would be under the assumption that it, at any point, was in the race.

Is Bright Star considered in the graveyard? I hope not; it, along with An Education, is my favorite film of 2009 at this point. It's incredibly well-acted, shot, and written and it saddens me it may go ignored. Is there any buzz left, even for Cornish or the cinematography?

:(

What about The Lovely Bones? It's currently at 56% on RT, but I guess we should wait until it gets more reviews...

I think My Sister's Keeper, Coco Before Chanel, The Damned United, and In the Loop should go here.

A few of those are too small. The Damned United, with its English football-centric plot and quiet release, was clearly never intended as an Oscar champion. In the Loop, too.

^I suppose that's true, though both Damned United and In the Loop were both very good whereas MSK was just meh.

The Damned United was definitely great. I've heard nothing but positive comments for In the Loop, either.
