82nd Annual Academy Awards Nominations

While yesterday (or early this morning for some of us) brought news of possible leaks of nominations, we now have the official nominations for the 82nd Annual Academy Awards.  It looks like the leaked list was just best guesses put out by ABC’s editors in preparation for today’s announcement of the official list.  Luckily for them, it appears there aren’t a lot of surprises overall on the list and most of the predictions turned out correct.  Some of the bigger surprises are Woody Harrelson getting a nod for Best Supporting Actor and District 9 getting a Best Picture nod.  Too bad It’s Complicated and The Hangover weren’t the surprise nominees yesterday’s list pinned them to be.
