Smarty is sad cause The Dark Knight Rises was not recognized at all...

Although to be fair, Joseph Gordon Levitt getting a Supporting Actor nomination nod would be well met...

I like how the unspoken tenth film is the Master but they weren't allowed to put it on there, thus it only 9 nominees for best film this year...

Kind of baffled (in a good way) at the high profile nominations Beasts got, and also baffled (in a bafflement way) that its score wasn't recognized even though it was undeniably the best part of the movie/the movies.

...?

Sound Editing, Original Screenplay, and Best Picture == a bajillion??

Hmm, well if the shadowy cabal really did have their chokehold on the voting in place, I wish they could have given Moonrise Kingdom a nod to make a round ten, in addition to snubbing The Master out of spite or whatever.

A noted lack of Moonrise Kingdom. Sure, I wouldn't have expected it to win for much, but I think it at least deserved a couple more nominations than Original Screenplay alone.

on the other hand i almost feel that Having a single Oscar category to be fought between The Hobbit and the Avengers is almost a cruel joke...

I'm just mildly pissed because if The Master and Moonrise Kingdom had been included, with Life of Pi getting the boot, I would have actually seen all of the Best Picture nominees before the awards.
