The West Coast is just waking up, but the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has already finished announcing their nominations for this year’s Oscars. It’s the first year since 1943 that there are 10 nominations for Best Picture, and it’s refreshing to see some films that might usually get overlooked receive some much-deserved kudos.

Most of the list is nothing surprising though, as the usual suspects that have been picking up noms and wins throughout the awards season are the ones filling out the categories for the Academy Awards. Leading the pack are James Cameron’s Avatar and Kathryn Bigelow’s The Hurt Locker, with 9 nominations apiece. There are still a few surprises here and there, though, so be sure to check out the full list of nominees after the jump.

by Ryan on 19 Nov 2008 | Comments More animated goodness coming your way! Yahoo! Movies has added the full trailer for Coraline, Henry Selick’s adaptation of the Neil Gaiman-penned children’s novel (though it’s perfectly suitable for adults as well). As a big Gaiman fan, and a kid who was mystified by the creepy goodness of The Nightmare Before Christmas, I’m stoked for this movie. It looks beautiful and having Selick adapt the material with his singular vision was, I thought, a brilliant and completely natural move.
