Sounds good. My problem with it getting so many nominations is that I found it to be just slightly better than middling and condescendingly bad in several ways.

But I do agree that it was a weak year. I think this would have been a good year to see some more mainstream films (Wall-E or Dark Knight) in there or to let a couple movies (like Man on Wire or something foreign or Wall-E) break out of the ghettos of the Documentary, Foreign Language (though this has the lowest walls of all the ghettos), and Animation.

But with such a dull list of nominees, I don't expect I'll be going out of my way to watch.
