Academy Nominations. I think you got it wrong this year

So if you haven't heard yet, the 2011 Academy Awards nominations were announced on Tuesday and boy was I surprised by many of the best actors/actress and directors not nominated. I first of all want to say this. The Social Network is one overrated movie. I've seen it. I liked it. But I didn't really think of it the moment I left the cinema. I didn't really recommend it and really could be left till DVD. That is why I really don't want it to win Best Picture. Although Las Vegas odds have it as the favourite, if I was on the panel I would definitely give this year's best picture to Inception, Black Swan or Toy Story 3. Three films that made a big impact in this year's blogger film experience this year. I'm not one to bitch, but I am highly disappointed in many of my favourites from 2010 films not being nominated. First off, what has the academy got against Christopher Nolan? Anyone who has seen Inception knows it is one amazing film. A great concept brought together by the amazing direction of Chris. So why know nomination? The film is in the running for best picture so how can you make a movie without a director, but the film gets a nomination for best film? Answer that one Academy. Now I am highly disappointed two women did not get at least a nomination for Best Supporting Actress. First off, Julianne Moore. Why no nomination for her amazing work in The Kids Are Alright. The film is nominated for Best Picture. Annette Benning is nominated for Best Actress. Mark Ruffalow was nominated for Best Supporting Actress. All for The Kids Are Alright. So why when Julianne Moore (I felt) was the best thing about that movie and she had more screen time than Annette Benning why no nom? Not happy Academy. But the biggest upset for me was Mila Kunis not even receiving a nomination for Black Swan. Although she did not have as much screen time as Natalie (who definitely deserves to win) she made the scenes with Natalie the most interesting and exciting out of the whole movie. She is electric and stunning as Lily and did as much preparation as Natalie for the part. And in my opinion, upstaged her in many scenes (oooohhhh I can hear people upset now, deal with it, it's my blog). So there you have it. My opinion on the nominations. So let's go Inception, Black Swan and Toy Story 3. Kick some ass this 2011 Academy Award season.
