    thanks...and look at the love for WALL-E...perhaps my early words on it being a true force for a Best Pic nom is not just me talking out of my ass back in the summer...

    if only Robert Downey Jr. won best supporting actor for tropic thunder, it would have really helped his nomination possibility

    Good to know but that film is not eligible for Oscar, so...

    Really glad for Ledger, Van Sant and Wall E. Am I the only person to think that MAYBE this will be the first year to have an animated film and a super hero film nominated ? I think that would be just great!

    Hawkins winning is great but i feel sad for Streep and Hathaway. Their buzz is not moving as far as i've seen...

    Hathaway needs it more than Streep, but I think she'll still get in
