I fu*king LOVE your best direct...Campion! McQueen! <br />I fu*king LOVE your best director nominees!!!... and man am I ever on pins-and-needles for your top 10/best picture nominees now! <br /><br />I’m also loving your picks for Supporting Actor; Waltz! Scheider! Tucci in J&J! And while I’m all for Fassbender as a runner-up, if your Actor-In-A-Limited-Role category didn’t exist…. would have included Denis Menochet’s riveting work in the opening of “Inglourious Basterds”? I thought he was just brilliant!Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12673028877943402977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-7175280864066802542010-01-21T17:24:04.597-05:002010-01-21T17:24:04.597-05:00I like your director noms too, but it's weird ...I like your director noms too, but it's weird not to see Daniels, Selick, or Docter even cited in honorable mention.<br /><br />How funny that Tilda dominated both lead acting categories. When I saw her as a placeholder for the women, I thought "hee" to myself; then, when I saw her there in lead actor, I "lol"ed.<br /><br />"Julia" does have a last name, though. And a particularly noteworthy one at that: I always thought it was funny that the Bening starred in "Being Julia" and a "Mrs. Harris", but neither of those was <strong>Julia Harris</strong>.<br /><br />Also, I have to say, I don't get the Paul Schnieder love. I LOVED <em>Bright Star</em>, but to me, it was totally the Ben & Abbie show. I didn't care about Paul at all. Nothing there particularly impressed me. But maybe I'll change my mind when I see it again.adam k.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13485604493059621307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-87738815711703313002010-01-21T17:13:59.750-05:002010-01-21T17:13:59.750-05:00no wes anderson for the director nod. but why?no wes anderson for the director nod. but why?jcnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-35520684563035410182010-01-21T12:15:48.970-05:002010-01-21T12:15:48.970-05:00YES! thank you so much for not forgetting Jane Cam...YES! thank you so much for not forgetting Jane Campion!!!!!

It is the typical "Jennifer Conelly" part with humor, but I would love to see him receive some honour with this. He has been so good for years and I would hate to see if he gets more kudos with Lovely Bones and start to get typecasted in weirdos. <br /><br />One note for Dominic Cooper, he shines in small parts, although he is clearly leading man material. We'll see how this will end up.<br /><br />And the "You've got me..." nomination... I didn't know it was original. It felt classic. And it provides such a delicious feeling for trailer and the movie.Great pick!<br /><br />Thanks for providing an award show that has a meaning!!!pasifaunahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01457763587511624592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-81337870943759277222010-01-21T01:41:59.396-05:002010-01-21T01:41:59.396-05:00I'm hearing you tout diversity with the direct...I'm hearing you tout diversity with the directors, and I'm thinking, "Okay, he clearly loves Campion and Bigelow, but was not a fan of the direction of Precious, so is he just talking about women?" Then I look at your nominees and *BAM!* there's Steve McQueen in the final five! Very inspired choice, if I may say so myself.<br /><br />PLEASE give Bigelow the gold. She towers above every other director out there. Yes, James Cameron made a successful film with revolutionary technology, but imagine how much more amazing his accomplishment would have been had he not used his resources to do an insipid remake of Dances with Wolves against the backdrop of a Roger Dean album cover.<br /><br />Obviously Christoph Waltz is going to win Best Supporting Actor, and I would agree with that decision for the most part. I just want to let you know that I wanted to give you a BIG hug when I read Anthony Mackie's name on there. Definitely a close silver, for me. I am surprised to see Woody Harrelson not make it, though it looks just barely.<br /><br />And nice job on Original Song. It would be great to see Karen O become an Academy Award nominee.Robert Hamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16541236953808315151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-34153741535713891152010-01-21T01:39:42.164-05:002010-01-21T01:39:42.164-05:00anon -- predictions are predictions.
