On Tuesday morning, the Oscar nominees will be announced. Before then, you can say what you think should or will be nominated. And afterward, who you think got ripped off.

Colin Firth should win Best Actor, Natalie Portman should win Best Actress. If they don't win there is something wrong with the Academy.

There will only be three nominees this year. It will likely be Toy Story 3, Tangled and Dragon.

Even if Toy Story 3 doesn't win the Best Picture nomination, I'm hoping they don't give all of the top awards to The Social Network. It was an okay movie, but not one deserving of all the praise it got at the Global Awards.

Natalie Portman, Nicole Kidman, Christian Bale, Anne Hathaway, Helena Bonham Carter and Johnny Depp all deserve nominations.
Alan Menken should win for I See the Light.
Black Swan, Inception deserve awards. The Social Network is higly overrated. Alice in Wonderland, The Chronicles of Narnia, Prince of Persia and TRON: Legacy deserves awards as well, for music/songs, visuals etc.
Toy Story 3 and Tangled should be nominated and one of them should win for animated film.

I'm ticked Daft Punk was not nominated for TRON Legacy. They gave us one of the most unique scores in recent years, one that really worked with the visuals on screen.
As for documentaries, how come the Disney ones got snubbed? Walt & El Grupo, Waking Sleeping Beauty and The Boys?

Because they were all released in theatres in 2009.

Actually, Waking Sleeping Beauty received qualifying theatrical release in 2010. But we already knew it wasn't getting nominated because it wasn't on the Academy's shortlist.
