I don't have any issue with it's nomination. In a normal year, I think it might be a slightly weak BP nominee, but 2008 was such a bad year for film that it actually could end up in my top 5 films of the year if or when I ever got around to making such a list. As to whether it should win... the academy's done much worse, and will again. If the best picture winner is a film that I regard as noticeably better than middling, then I call it a good night and go home.
