82nd Academy Award : Nominee

There's 10 best-picture nominee at this year's Oscar. Once again, 10! First time in 60 years of Oscars tradition to have 10 nominee instead of the usual 5. For me, it's the right way to do... because last year movie line up is incredible! You can see the complete list here.

I won't talk to much for the nominee line up. Actually I agree with 80-90% of them. One thing I regret most is I delay myself to watch The Hurt Locker and it turns out to get 9 nominations, together with Avatar. Why? because I hate war movie! It hurts me too much. Romance or sad movie with too much melancholic scene won't affect me at all, but war movie is another story. But seems that I have to watch it soon before the award presentation at March 7. Lets watch all 10 best picture nominee before March 7!
