And the Oscar Goes to...

Well once again this year's Academy Award nominations are crap, Batman, The Punisher: War Zone, The Wrestler and Hamlet 2 were not nominated for Best Picture; instead The Curious Case of Benjamin BUTTman (Read our review), Milk (Read our review), Frost/Nixon, The Reader, and Slumdog Millionaire were.

The Dark Knight was nominated for eight Oscars including the obvious stuff like Visual Effects, AND YES Heath Ledger got his Best Supporting Role nod, AND YES he died yada-yada-yada! The only person I'm pulling for to win is the mutant known as Mickey Rourke to win Best Actor for The Wrestler. And I look forward to see if Hollywood still suffers from homophobia by ignoring Milk and Sean Penn who was also nominated for Best Actor.

The most nominations went to Benjamin Button with 13 and second was Slumdog with ten. Jesus I feel like I could have written this article six months ago. (yawn)

So hurry, this is your last chance to rush out and see all the nominated films, so you can bore your family, friends and co-workers with regurgitated opinions you read from assholes like me on the interweb.
