The Oscar Nominations: A Reaction

By Sean Knight

First let me apologize for my absence from the blog.  My computer is dead and will not be fixed until I have some extra income, in other words not until I get my tax return.  In the meantime Jeanette has been taking care of the blog and was kind enough to post my 2010 Knight Award nominations yesterday.  I am currently using whatever computer I can get my hands on in order to pop on here every once in a while and will continue to do so till my computer is fixed, so bear with me. 



I'm going to do this category by category.  As you can expect lots of bitching will ensue.  Read on after the jump.

The Producers Guild Nominations: A Reaction

Sean here.  The Producers Guild Nominations were announced this morning and all I can really say is that this race has become extremely predictable.  No surprises whatsoever unless you consider The Town, but let's be honest it was an above average crime thriller that did better than expected Box Office.  Of course the Producers Guild would like it.  And I expect the same thing to happen at the Academy Awards, but I really hope they throw in a few curve balls.  As much as I couldn't stand The Blind Side last year it was definitely a surprising if undeserving nominee that got people all a twitter.  The Nominations and analysis are after the jump.
