Oscar Notes

-
Famiglia e amici, what do we think of these nominations? My first thoughts are:

* Yay on Viggo's nomination.

* Yay on Amy Ryan's nomination for Gone Baby Gone; she was amazing. I only wish this film had garnered a few more noms.

* Yay on Julian Schnabel's nom for directing. That was a film where the direction, specifically, stood out.

* Big, huge boo-hiss for no Original Song nomination for Eddie Vedder's "Guaranteed" or any of his other work on Into the Wild. I wasn't expecting a nomination for Sean Penn or Emile Hirsch (though I think they deserved them), but was surprised to see the film passed over Best Song and also Cinematography.
