I am so excited that Little Miss Sunshine got some Love!
I am happily looking forward to seeing this years Oscars! There is a real chance for some upsets and the award going to actors who truly gave career-defining performances.

I also must add that I LOVE the fact that Kate Winslet and Cate Blanchett are becoming annual attendees at the Oscars. They are so much more deserving of being the women we know will be there every year than Gwyneth Paltrow and Julia Roberts!

If they are using that criteria then I don't believe that Babel should have been nominated. It had great acting but the movie to me was just OK.

But I'm very happy that Cate Blanchette was nominated for "Notes on a Scandal" instead of Babel.

Dakota Fanning scares me. She's talented, but there's something a little too grown up about her.

I'm thrilled for Abigail. I bet her dress will be cute.

Jennifer Hudson for Best Supporting Actress is enough to make me actually want to watch. Go Jennifer.

Me too. I doubt that I will even see the movie but I'm thrilled that she got the nod.

It's pretty weird that for 2 years in a row, the movie that won Best Picture: Comedy or Musical in the Golden Globes got snubbed.

I can't believe Little Miss Sunshine was nominated. I did not like that movie and don't understand all the hype about it. The language was a huge turn-off (from a grandfather no less), and the role model he was for his granddaughter was incomprehensible.

If Kate doesn't win this time, then they're looking to give it too her for best supporting. She's been nominated several times in the past 2-3 years. Reminds me of Renee a bit. Im super glad beyonce was not nominated.

I wish The Last King would've gotten more recognition though.
