Demián Bichir...seriously, that was a surprise. And after the two major noms for TTSS I had a sneaking suspicion it'd make it in for BP...too bad.


And seriously, I have watched The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo on Sunday and I just kept thinking....this is SO not up the Academy's alley, seriously.

And Hugo leads with 11 while The Artist got 10, so The Artist didn't get a surprise nom to solidify its strength, although it's certainly still the frontrunner.

So happy about Rooney Mara. Michael Fassbender should've gotten in...

Interesting noms...

I am thrilled Rooney and Gary made it.

But Michael... I weep.

So, isn't BP supposed to have 10 nominees? Or is that the maximum now.

Only 4 nominees for Art Direction? Is that a first for that category? I remember seeing such randomness in only Best Song and maybe Makeup.

I need to see EL&IC, Albert Nobbs, and A Separation. And those two animated movies if they're available anywhere?

Does EL&IC get the biggest box office boost from these?

It's interesting/strange Dragon Tattoo was strong enough to get into the actress and editing fields (the latter a strong predictor of picture), but ended up missing in the actual top category.

Other thoughts:

1. No Project Nim for Documentary; Pina got in there but not Best Foreign;
2. Dragon Tattoo got Editing as well, making its BP snub more surprising;
3. Music branch surely loves John Williams;
4. Drive did get one nom in Sound Editing (only 4 nominees there too);
5. Hugo did show strength by getting every tech nom in all the categories it could.

No matter how popular you, no matter how many precursor nominations you receive, if you're in a movie by a director along the lines of Nicolas Winding Refn, Steve McQueen, Lynne Ramsay, Lars von Trier, etc., you're not getting in.
