Marion Cottilard is Brilliant! Glad she got a nomination. Let’s hope she’ll take the gold home. She had a much tougher job playing Piaff. She gave one of the best performances in ages.

good @ least Jolie playing blackface isnt nominated, we probably still have to see her thou in the red carpet since the Assas.of Jesse J. was nominated for the Best Cinematography. I’m very happy with all the nods, little sad that Keira didnt get one but oh well not everybody will get one and @ least she got nominated on the British version of Oscars.

I’m very sad when Keri Russell wasn’t nominated for “Waitress.” I’ve been talking about her nomination for many months and sadly, no one took my advice. I was promoting her Oscar nomination until the bitter end. She deserved that nomation a lot better than the other except Julie Christie and Ellen Page. I’ve also wish the AnnaSophie Robb got a supporting Oscar Nomination for “Bridge to Terabithia.” I wish that the Oscar voters would have a better memory. Apart form that, I have no complaints about the nominations. I only wish that more movies and performers could be honored.
