The Prestige should've been nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay, I think.

What about Dita Von Teese? Wasn't she in a movie or something that should have merited a Best Actress nomination at the very least?

I agree that The Illusionist AND The Prestige should have been considered a bit more. They were both excellent movies.

Pretty much what was expected to get nominated. Only surprise kinda being that Little Miss Sunshine was nominated for best picture.

I'm hoping for The Departed to win best picture.
It was an intriguing, well written film.

People were sure that Dreamgirls would take any possible chance away that Little Miss Sunshine had of getting nominated for Best Picture.
I'm mad that Dreamgirls didn't get nominated for it though.

It was a great movie, but it didn't scream "Oscar!" when I watched it.

good to see the ego that is Beyonce Knowles didnt make the list
I was under the impression that Jennifer Hudson was the main character in Dream Girls. I keep looking at the Lead Actress nominations and expecting to see her name and thinking she's been flubbed/dubbed/ whatever they call it.
So I'm guess Beyonce is the lead in the movie huh? They previews didn't make her out to be. Now that I know this, I'm thinkingshe must be a little disappionted, although I was expecting anything in her favor anyways.

Little Miss Sunshine was an utter disappointment for me (just saw it last night). A friend of mine told me a couple of years ago I would love Sideways , and after seeing it, she was 100% dead on. She said the same about L.M.S., so I was pretty excited to see it, only to be let down quite a bit. The best character (Alan Arkin's) didn't get enough air time (won't spoil it for those who haven't seen it)!

Anyone have the nominees on a one-page ballot? I've been trying to download one for an Oscar pool but can't find one - not even at the Oscar site.
