To say I was disappointed with the nominations this year would be an understatement. Here's what I personally think should have been up for Best Picture:
Slumdog Millionaire
Frost/Nixon
The Dark Knight
WALL-E
The Wrestler
However, I'm not in charge of the Academy. People who are a lot richer and a lot more Jewish than me are.
Regardless of my disappointment in most of the nominations, I will still say I think it was a great night. I was so glad that an actual feel good movie took home the trophy for the first time in a long time.
I loved the Oscars even more when I woke up the next morning and saw these pictures of the real 'slumdogs' of Mumbai watching the biggest night in Hollywood:
