Miscellaneous Movie Musings the Sequel

Well, not off to too bad a start for the Oscar season. Of the 42 nominated films (excluding the shorts and the foreign language category as many of those aren't yet readily possible), I've seen 21 of them. And 65 of the 99 nominations total for them (The Help is the most nominated that I haven't seen).

Complete whiff on Best Actress though. And I'm pretty resistant to seeing Extremely Loud and Dangerously Close (not because it is 9/11 but because it looks awful).

First time since the Best Animated Feature award was created that Disney/Pixar has been completely locked out. And with two foreign titles they had to go deep to do so. Cars 2 was pretty bad but I thought Winnie the Pooh might take a slot.
