What are you seeing? I see a few errant links that lead to things, but I wonder if they just have a bunch of stuff loaded and ready to go for when the announcements hit? What were you linking to?

Yeah, at first I was expecting it to go to a list, but I figured it out. I think they are just jumping the gun. Even with ten nominations, if It's Friggin Complicated were nominated for best picture.... just no. NO!
If Marion was snubbed in favor of Penelope I am gonna scream (Kate Winslet's win as Best Actress in THE READER proves the Academy doesn't give a crap what category the performers are submitted in, though I'm sure the Weinstein Co. submitted her as Best Actress, not Best Supporting). Vogue-ing on a mirror with ropes is NOT Oscar-worthy, despite what Rob and Harvey might tell you. Marion, on the other hand, made the movie's two most difficult and unusual songs, "My Husband Makes Movies" and "Take It All," nearly soar to the heights, despite some of the worst editing I have ever seen (esp. "TIA").
That was weird. I don't know if they made an editorial error or someone actually jumped the gun. Aren't they in a sealed envelope until the announcement?
