Wierd ones to me.
- No Bigelow for director.
- Les Mis for best picture. It was fine, but no where near the quality of some of the snubbed films.
- Salley Field for Lincoln? Looking back there isn’t actually a ton of memorable supporting performances this year. I’d personally put in place performances from unlikely Oscar choices like Looper or Cabin in the Woods over Field in this film though.
- Moonrise Kingdom snubbed everywhere.
- The Master snubbed everywhere as well.
- Leonardo DiCaprio for Django. Get rid of Arkin or Tommy Lee Jones. Preferably Arkin.
