    The fact that The Dark Knight was nominated for Best Pic just shows how extraordinarily out of touch the Academy is from most of the rest of the world.

    The Agg, Dark Knight was a fantastic movie and should have been included. I am not a fan of Batman movies but I loved The Dark Knight! All the actors were great but Heath Ledger was superb. Not many actors can play a role where if you didn't know who it was you never would have guessed.

    I was hoping that the guy that played in Slumdog Millionaire would be nominated but he wasn't. He was awesome. The Movie will definitely get best picture and it should. Brad will not win for best actor. Mickey Rourke is going to win (i hope!) and hopefully Kate Winslet. I think Leonardo should have been nominated too. He deserved to be.

    To everyone shouting for Leo DiCaprio: He's a poor actor, he fails to portray people in a way that is believable. He deserves nothing. And best makeup for Ben Button? The makeup in that movie was so terrible, it deserves a Razzie.
