We come again to that part of the year with which I am strangely obsessed.

Oscar nominations were announced, for those who might care. I'm actually happy with this year's nominations, although I haven't seen as many movies as I'd have liked to. I think the only way I could really be upset would be if Frida didn't win anything good. Or if Eminem actually won the Oscar he's up for this year.And for those who really really loved the latest installment in the LotR series will probably be disappointed to hear that it likely won't win best picture. Traditionally, you don't win Best Picture if you don't have a directing nomination, and the movie with the most overall nominations usually wins Best Picture. The Two Towers has five nominations, compared to Chicago's thirteen.
