And the 2011 Oscar Nominees are...

Ok, I'll do it:

2011: Moneyball

2010: I actually watched all 10 nominees. True Grit was the only 1 I saw in the theater.

2009: All of them except for Precious. All on DVD.

2008: Slumdog Millionaire, Benjamin Button

2007: No Country For Old Men, Juno, There Will Be Blood

2006: The Departed, Little Miss Sunshine, Babel

2005: Crash*, Capote*

2004: Finding Neverland, Sideways

2003: Return of the King, Lost in Translation*, Mystic River*

2002: The Two Towers

2001: Fellowship of the Ring*, Gosford Park

2000: Traffic

I will probably end up watching most of this year's nominees at some point, but I'm not too interested in almost any of them.

AMC will probably end up doing their Best Picture marathon again, where for one ticket price you can see all of the BP nominees. Since the expansion of nominees to 10 (and 9 this year) they've split it up into two weekends. I did it once and it was really cool. With an AMC card, I think it was $40 last year and included unlimited popcorn.

I thought Drive was the best movie of the year, by far. Taxi Driver meets Reservoir Dogs. I think the title killed it, people were expecting fast and ferrous type movie.
