Why is "Gone Baby Gone" snubbed for "Best Picture"? It's a strong film that at the very least deserves nomination. It's been a strong year, when you look at the performances and the quality of movies nominated.

I hope Burton brings it home, he's been overlooked for a while....and it does suck that Gone Bab Gone didn't get more noms.

Gone Baby Gone and 3:10 To Yuma were both way better than Michael Clayton and The Great Debaters, and i cant believe P.T. Anderson got snubbed. Unbelievable

Eastern Promises getting the love that History of Violence didnt?
Hope Viggo gets an Oscar nomination.
Besides that NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN is the best up there.

is there ANY statute of limitations on how many films can be nominated for best dramatic best picture. 7?! no wonder nobody takes these awards seriously. here are the most glaring problems with these nominations:

- THE GREAT DEBATERS FOR BEST PICTURE. seriously? and what's with that kid being named denzel whitaker? of course he was going to get the part in a denzel washington / forest whitaker movie.

- Best actress: Jodi Foster for 'the brave one' hahahaha. for shame.

- 'Across the Universe' for Best Picture. c'mon. and of course 'Ratatouille' gets hard-core snubbed. same for knocked up or superbad (even though you knew voters weren't going to appreciate them)

- Best actor: John C. Reilly for DUEY COX?! holy crap.

-Zero props for 3:10 to yuma. i figured crowe's excellent performance would get wrongfully overshadowed by American Gangster, but no recognition at all? I guess the early fall release didn't help its chances.

- I could easily see Robert Downey Jr.'s supporting role in 'Zodiac' (another wholly neglected film) supplanting John Travolta's fat suit turn in 'hairspray.' (side note: 'wild hogs' was one of the top 10 grossing films of the year with $160 mill. there officially is no lord.)

best picture oscar predictions:
-atonement

-diven bell and the butterfly
-no country for old men
-sweeny todd
-there will be blood or juno (if it catches on and does the 'little miss sunshine' thing)

Tim Burton BABY!!!! Oh yeah. I'm shocked to see all the nods for Hairspray, specially Nikki Blonski's... but that movie rocked, so... wow, Ellen Page is finally getting some love after being ignored last year for Hard Candy. Fingers crossed for her or Helena Bonham Carter.

This list is lacking. No Anderson nom? 310 completely left out? Tommy Lee Jones and Josh Brolin? Anyone? Oh well.

Ellen Page deserves that nomination.She´s one of the most (if not the most) amazing actress out there.

I'm also shocked at Gone Baby Gone's snub. Assassination of Jesse James didn't get a picture nod either. And why no Knocked up in Best Comedy? I believe it was one of the highest rated comedies of the year, wasn't it?

[i]Ratatouille[/i] should have been nominated for best musical/comedy picture, best screenplay, best score, and maybe even best director. It deserves more than just a best animated film nod.

On the TV side, I'm happy that [i]Pushing Daisies[/i] got some nominations. :)

Well, these nominations aren't as disastrous as I predicted, but there are many glaring flaws:

1) No nomination for Paul Thomas Anderson. What. The. ****.

2) The Great Debaters being nominated for "Best Picture, Drama" instead of Gone Baby Gone, Before the Devil Knows You're Dead, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, Zodiac, Away From Her, 3:10 to Yuma, and Into the Wild. Reminds me of when Bobby inexplicably got the nomination last year.

3) John Travolta's hammy, stupid, and uninspired transvestite performance in Hairspray gets a nomination instead of Hal Holbrook (Into the Wild), Paul Dano (There Will Be Blood), Max Von Sydow (The Diving Bell and the Butterfly), Philip Bosco (The Savages), Marcus Carl Franklin (I'm Not There), Ethan Hawke (Before the Devil Knows You're Dead), Sacha Baron Cohen (Sweeney Todd), Steve Zhan (Rescue Dawn), and even his own superior co-star Christopher Walken! They probably just saw the fat suit, and thought, 'hey, that's pretty funny, let's nominate him!' Idiots...

4) The sloppy and ridiculous Across the Universe gets nominated for "Best Picture, Muscial or Comedy" over Once, Hot Fuzz, and Knocked Up. And on that note,

5) What the hell is with "Best Picture, Drama" getting two more nominees than "Best Picture, Musical or Comedy" anyway? What, did they find Knocked Up and Once to not be good enough for a nomination, but they just HAD to fit in two overhyped Denzel Washington films?

the pt anderson snub is really crappy, but expected...he's just too interesting/uncompromising...the real big snub from that movie is jonny greenwood's score! WHAT THE HELL? it's only the greatest score of, at least, the past ten years!

Kinda surprised Gone Baby Gone got snubbed for bull**** like Eastern Promises. And I have a feeling The Great Debaters was produced by Oprah Winfrey just so she could win an award, not saying it looks bad but it looks generic and predictable.

In reply to this comment (#1353672)
just to clarify, foreign language movies (ie diving bell and the butterfly) can't be nominated for best picture in the globes, but can in the oscars.

Movie noms are about what you expect for this kind of thing, but the TV ones are just awful.

Do these people even watch any TV?
