Geez, usually I post this kindof thing right away. You've probably already seen the list of Oscar nominations, but I post 'em anyway for my own reference (and in case you haven't seen 'em yet).

It's really peculiar how few films overall are represented this year, or at least it seems that way. I know everyone thinks this was a lackluster year for film overall, but geez. I'm also bummed that O Brother, Where Art Thou? didn't get more nominations, but I'm not surprised (I'm still croggled by how poorly it's doing at the box office). I'm not gonna say yet who I'm rooting for in the major categories 'cuz I still haven't seen a lot of the films in question (Traffic, Erin Brockovich, Almost Famous, Gladiator, Castaway, Chocolat, etc). Time for me to get out to the theater (or video rental place).
