Any other nominations that didn't happen that people would have liked to see? I'm particularily buzzed on that question this year because I really wanted Paul Giamatti to win Best Actor. I had others that I hoped to see too (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind for Best Picture and Uma Thurman for Best Actress) but I knew those were less likely.

I guess it's time to start trying to see some of the films that I haven't yet, so I can better justify my anger come Oscar night.
