The Academy Award nominations were announced today. I think they were mostly fair. I would have liked to have seen Sharlto Copley (District 9) and Michael Stuhlbarg (A Serious Man) get best actor nominations, but whatever. I was happy that District 9 made the best picture cut (too bad Star Trek didn`t make it). Of the 10 best picture nominees I've seen six. The ones I haven't seen are: The Hurt Locker, Inglorious Basterds, The Blind Side, Up.
In the meantime, here are my Top Films of 2009:
Precious, Based on the Novel "Push" by Sapphire
Up in the Air
The Way We Get By (documentary)
Prom Night in Mississippi (documentary)
Star Trek

District 9
Eyes Wide Open
The Top Twins: Untouchable Girls (documentary)
Defamation (documentary)
Honourable mention: Google Baby (documentary), An Education, A Serious Man, City of Life and Death (Nanjing! Nanjing!)
Worst movie: Bruno
