    It just seems a little out of place on this list, considering what fills out the rest of the Top 10.

    The Hurt Locker has the win for Mackie, but I was still surprised to see Up on there.

    Precious was a good pick... why doesnt Monique want to promote the film.. is it that she is intimidated by all the Oscar talk?
