WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK

What happened with the Oscar nominations?  I mean seriously, what happened?
  • Bigelow and Affleck both get snubbed in Direction.
  • I mean the Director lineup just in general.  Fuck David O'Russell.
  • Moonrise Kingdom doesn't get a Picture nomination.
  • No Looper in Screenplay.
  • No John Hawkes in Actor.
  • Where the actual fuck did Jacki Weaver come from?  I didn't really think Ann Dowd would get in, but no Ann Dowd and Jacki Weaver instead?
  • This isn't a surprise, because everyone knew Alan Arkin would get in, but he would have been the third most interesting supporting performance in Argo, under Bryan Cranston and John Goodman.
  • I literally cannot with Editing.
  • No Hobbit for Costume?  (But Mirror Mirror and Snow White and the Huntsman make it in.)  Or for Sound Editing?  Or Sound Mixing?  (Lincoln for Mixing?  Really?  Really.)  No nomination for "Song of the Lonely Mountain?"
  • And where are The Avengers' Sound nominations?  Oh right, there are none.
  • I literally cannot with Documentary Feature, but I knew that when the first short-list was announced.
  • Hitchcock for Makeup over Lincoln?  Anthony Hopkins literally looked like he was melting.
  • I fundamentally do not understand Life of Pi getting nominated for Production Design.
Bright spots:
  • Christoph Waltz.
I have seriously like been seething this whole morning.  These are the worst.  THE WORST.

In conclusion, GPOY:

I still want to see Les Mis, but OMG I am sick of Anne Hathaway. I've never really cared for her, and her campaign when she was nominated for Rachel Getting Married was annoying, too - though not as annoying as this year. She's been insufferable with the "oh I had to starve myself" and "I'm just not that good" and "Tom thought I had it after four takes but I made everyone watch me do the song for eight hours."

Go Sally Field! Choose Sally Field!

I usually like her but I'm disliking her a lot right now. I didn't get much of the Rachel Getting Married campaign so I can't compare, but I think with the TDKR boost she had in summer this campaign just had to be bigger and more annoying. Maybe she has no campaigning talent and should just do normal movie promo. I actually like it way more when people who don't campaign much/at all get the price.

I haven't even seen Lincoln and I want her to winXD
