Oscar Nominations announced!
The Oscar nominations were announced about 1hour ago and I ran a quick update through the pages indicating my correct guesses, the ones I had almost right (that means I listed them as alternates or I insisted on predicting a surprise that never happened) and the true surprises.
Actually there were no surprises at all, at least in the major categories. Some minor surprises, such as Walk the Line not getting nominated for Best Picture were predicted by many. Perhaps the only notable surprise is Keira Knightley nominated for her role in Pride and Prejudice. Oh well, welcome to boredom-land. I got 35/40 correct and if I would've avoided predicting surprises I would've been 37 or 38 out of 40...
I will post more comments on each category as I get more time, probably later tonight.
