There are so many things that are irritating about the nominee list for this year’s Academy Awards: that Nine earned even one award, that Harry Potter earned only one (and it wasn’t even best movie of ever. Ridiculous, right?), that Matt Damon was nominated for a really bland part, that FUCKING THE BLIND SIDE is nominated for Best Picture…
You know that I could rattle off the list and deliver a ten minute rant about each category. YOU KNOW I COULD. But in the interest of remaining calm instead of attacking my computer at work, I will direct you here for the full list of nominees, and remain focused on the positive.
- after winning the PGA and DGA and getting a nomination today, The Hurt Locker is now looking pretty good for Best Picture! And Inglourious Basterds won Best Cast at the SAG, and it is notoriously difficult to win Best Picture without Best Cast! Yay! Screw Avatar! (Hopefully.)
- this means maybe Kathryn Bigelow will win Best Director and we won’t have to look at James Cameron’s smug old lesbian haircut!
- Jeremy Renner nominated for Best Actor. I love him. Look at how happy he is! (No, seriously, click on that link and watch that video. IT IS ADORABLE.)
you forgot the link boo hoo hoo
