Oscar noms!!!!!

So... Revolutionary Road got one. which is insanely annoying, no Leo. Kate is only nominated for The Reader (which actually did really well), and she better win. UGH I hate the Academy. They totally snubbed The Dark Knight, which didn't suprise me at all. If they don't give Heath the supporting actor award there will be major backlash, so I think they have to at least fold there. No Clint Eastwood. Frost/Nixon grabbed some nods, Milk did solidly. Thoughts Frank? I can't believe RR didn't snag one for adapted screenplay. Really, Academy?
