Predictable DiCaprio snub.....BS!

Really? Alan Arkin over DiCaprio. No way that was better, no way.

Not completely predictable as previous years. Directing was interesting, but Tarantino deserved a spot.

DiCaprio, Cotillard snubs.

[djgeneral]

eh nominations

[biglou114]

I'm happy that David O. Russell didn't get snubbed like the DGAs

[remake]

Get it, Jessica Chastain and Jennifer Lawrence.

[Mandalorian]

Some interesting noms. Going to be fun doing my real predicts now that they were announced.

Oh, and yeah, Django.

[chris_sc77]

disgusted beyond belief that Cud ATlas got nothing and Django only got 5 nominations. The musical scores and songs broke my heart in their unworthiness. I hate the Oscars

[Snicket]

-With Bigelow out of direction Lincoln just won best pic hands down, race is over.

-Beasts of the Southern Wild is the big winner today.

-No Moonrise for best pic made me sad.

-Unless the Weinsteins can pull out a miracle 4th quarter rally for Silver Linings this race is over and is quite boring.

-Notice how they ran ads for David O. Russell before the noms were even announced...

*Commence the predicted complaints*

[jerichod]

Surprised Affleck and Bigelow were snubbed for Best Director.

[Pounder]

No Leo? no affleck for director?!?!? What a joke.

Yup Lincoln won right now. No Contest. Spielberg wins Oscar number 3.

[djgeneral]

Bigelow missing the cut is extremely shocking. Leo not get a nomination is great as he was the worst part of the movie.

[fatediesel]

I'm very surprised that both Ben Affleck and Kathryn Bigelow were snubbed for director. I figured that category was fairly set in stone with them along with Spielberg, Lee, and Russell.

My biggest disappointments.

[Snicket]

So Seth McFarline was funny right? At least there's that.

[spanky87]

Naomi Watts is the best out of the actress noms. I still haven't seen Beasts of the Southern Wild though.

[Snicket]

It should be extremely easy to predict these this year.
