Gramps! I said 10 Best Picture Nominees Not Just 5!

I dunno why I took a quote from Back To The Future 2 and turned it into the topic of this story, but who cares, it's awesome.

The Academy Of Motion Picture Arts And Sciences decided today that they will go back to the old ways pre 1944, and now the Best Picture category will have 10 nominees, instead of the usual 5. This woulda been awesome last year because Wall*E and Dark Knight would have had a chance at Best Picture.

Also a rumor is floating around that due to this change, the Best Animated Feature category might be removed entirely to allow animated movies a chance to snag Best Picture, like Wall*E should have got, that movie was 100 times better than Slumdog Millionaire.

Anyways, that's that. What do you think?

  1. This is almost to little to late. Wall*E was a lot better than Slumdog. I thougt The Dark Knight was the best picture of last year, and I think that each of the other best picture nominees (well I haven't seen The Reader yet) were better than Slumdog Millionare. I enjoy Danny Boyle, but I don't think it was one of better film, or ever a best picture winner. You?

  2. It was a Best Pic nominee but Winner? No. The Dark Knight was a great movie and it deserved a Best Pic nom but I don't think it should have won. Wall*E deserved to be nominated, and deserved to win. Pixar does more with their movies than any other studio out there. They bring original characters in original stories and make you weep like a little girl over a freakin cartoon.
