Oscar nominations are in. Thoughts:
Thrilled that Benjamin Button got so many nominations (13).
The Dark Knight, with 8 nominations, still didn't get a director or a best picture nom. Bummer.
As expected, Milk was nominated for director and picture.
Revolutionary Road was completely snubbed. A great film by a great director with great performances, a great adapted screenplay, and a great score only managed to nab a best supporting actor nom for Michael Shannon (which is well-deserved), and a nom for art direction and costume design.
Why does Slumdog Millionaire have two songs nominated and Springsteen's "The Wrestler" is not?
Wall-E will win animated feature.
Actor will be between Sean Penn and Mickey Rourke.
Supporting actor will go to Heath Ledger.
Kate Winslet will win for The Reader, even though her work in Revolutionary Road should have been acknowledged as well.
Supporting Actress will be between Viola Davis, Taraji P. Henson, and Marisa Tomei.
Wouldn't be surprised if Button wins Best Picture but Danny Boyle wins for directing.
