The 83rd Academy Awards are February 27, 2011 and here are the nominees for the year 2010 in film.

“The King’s Speech” leads with 12 nominations, “True Grit” is second with 10. “The Social Network” and “Inception” have 8, although Andrew Garfield and Christopher Nolan were left out in Supporting Actor and Director, respectively. “The Fighter” has 7.

“Blue Valentine” should have been in there for Gosling and directing, even though I knew it didn’t have a chance with Cianfrance.Nolan and Garfield got screwed. Nothing more to say. “Inception” was visionary stuff, a 10-yr+ project, and Garfield was the heart and soul of “The Social Network.” At least they didn’t snub Eisenberg.

I am thrilled for Hawkes and “Exit Through the Gift Shop,” though. I HATED “Biutiful,” so those 2 nominations are just baffling. Leaving “Scott Pilgrim” out for VFX is dumbfounding. I’m so sick of the same boring CGI. You do something new, apparently, and you get nothing.

Same goes for the lack of nomination for “Inception” in Editing. That was a freaking tightrope and they get nothing for it?
