I'm glad "A Serious Man" got the best pic. and original screenplay nomination. I don't expect it (or really think it should) win either category, but I'm happy it got some love.

I'm also happy "In the Loop" got the screenplay nomination. I wasn't aware it was an adaptation. I'd love to see it win.

I'm a little sad that the homie Scott Neustadter didn't get a nomination for "500 Days." Ah well, he's getting a lot of work these days, and he may well be back.

Finally, I really need to get around to seeing "Hurt Locker" and "An Education."
