^^^ Not sure on that one.
Oh yeah overall I'm pretty mad....really, they are trying to be "hip" like last year with 'miss sunshine' by nominating JUNO in everything when the only true deserved nomination would have been for Jennifer Gardner... and I'm just over it. My faves this year just didn't match up as well but here is hoping THERE WILL BE BLOOD dominates. Also, I'm glad ENCHANTED got music nominations. I hope to see Amy Adams and Jon Mclaughlin perform :).
