So what'd I miss? The last three. I didn't count on Up, and had actually written off WTWTA, but an PUMPED for Star Trek, could this mean that it could find its way to the Oscars? Maybe, and I hope so, the Academy needs a fun, well reviewed blockbuster since they instituted this 10 best picture nominees nonsense. I'd also venture to guess the acting winners could very well become Oscar winners, with Morgan Freeman just barely eeking out Clooney.

Surprises? Minimal love for Precious and zero for Nine...ouch.
