The nominations for TOURI and Burlesque show what a hacky group HFPA is. secretstalker Dec 14, 06:13

i must be going blind. what was TOURI nominated for? {nm} Oleg Max Dec 14, 06:35

Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Actress (all in Comedy/Musical) {nm} RupertPupkin Dec 14, 06:43

i see the list got updated... should have refreshed that page. thank you... {nm} Oleg Max Dec 14, 06:55

Interesting that "Carlos" & Edgar Ramirez were nominated in the TV categories rather than in features. {nm} helmetz Dec 14, 06:22

It was made for television (both in France and here) but was then given a theatrical release. {nm} secretstalker Dec 14, 06:25

how does TOURI qualify as a Comedy/Musical? {nm} lapuckfan Dec 14, 07:15

It guarantees that Angelina Jolie will be walking the red carpet, probably with Brad Pitt. {nm} CS Dec 14, 07:17

It *tries* to be funny. {nm} secretstalker Dec 14, 07:33

No TOYS3 for best picture?? Boooh.... {nm} billy Dec 14, 07:33

I'm not even sure its the best animated movie...I like How to Train Your Dragon more {nm} lapuckfan Dec 14, 07:40

I personally like Dragon, Despicable Me and Tangled better. Toy Story is just same old, same old. All great movies and a great year! {nm} tribality Dec 14, 07:48

Is the competition so tough this year that Inception is not worthy of best pic nom? I haven't seen most of them yet. {nm} tribality Dec 14, 07:54

Oops! Can't read. PLEASE IGNORE ABOVE. {nm} tribality Dec 14, 07:55

I haven't looked....what is MSTRE nominated for? {nm} StarBondFund BUY NOW.. Jets 9-4 Dec 14, 08:45

Four actors for The Fiighhter, but only one for Winter's Bone... Well, they were relative unknowns, in the latter. Not safe(?) {nm} Facto Dec 14, 09:06

Terrible choices all around, pretty much. Winter's Bone didn't deserve any noms (boring tripe) and they totally ignored True Grit. HarryWarden Dec 14, 11:19

No nomination for The Town for BP is also a glaring oversight. It should get multiple Oscar noms though, one would hope. {nm} HarryWarden Dec 14, 11:22

The Town is a terrible movie - talk about boring tripe! {nm} BuenaOnda Dec 14, 13:31

Thank you. {nm} Facto Dec 14, 17:59

But that's just plain wrong, didn't you see my post right above yours? Winter's bone did get one nomination, for actress... {nm} Facto Dec 14, 11:26

You don't understand. I'm saying that it didn't deserve to get any noms. It was terrible. {nm} HarryWarden Dec 14, 11:28

Yes, I see it now, I read it slightly too fast.. Anyway, I'm not so sure about The Town, either. It was definitely decent. But great? No.. Facto Dec 14, 11:36
