Well, I was pleased to see that The Illusionist won a nod for cinematography. I thought it was gorgeously filmed, but a pedestrian and slow movie.
I agree with Alex (I think) Streep brings up the level of any movie she is in, but in no way (to my mind) deserved a Golden Globe nor an Academy Award for this piece of fluff.
The Academy has never had a history for picking the best picture of the year, but heck, I'm not an Academy voting member, so my vote don't count. I wonder if they will go with Babel?
Litle Miss Sunshine, I want Alan Arkin to win, very much.
I'm planning the Oscar night menu now.
