- one The amazing silent film “The Artist” didn’t top the nomination list — “Hugo” had one more, despite the fact it was shut out of the acting categories.
- two “The Tree of Life” must’ve confused the Academy: A strange message, “Nominees to be determined,” accompanies its Best Picture nomination.
- three Maybe not a huge surprise, but Pixar’s “Cars 2” is the first Pixar flick that didn’t get a single nomination for an Oscar. Perhaps it’s because it sucked? Yeah, probably.
- four And a surprise going the other way: Melissa McCarthy got an acting nomination for “Bridesmaids,” her breakout role. The question is, will she win?

No “Pariah” though. As you can imagine, there...Internet outrage.

I was shocked by the nominations for Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close, since that was a critically drubbed film.

It’ll be a nice surprise to see which Animated Film wins for best this year - having Pixar in the category each year didn’t make it suspenseful at all.
