Hi guys. I'm not an Oscar addicted, but at this time of the year, everybody gets curious, excited about the Oscar nominees. People cheer for their greatest stars and run to the theaters in order to see the best movies before the Oscar ceremony. Here are the nominees for the most important Academy categories.
Let's hurry to the movies. We still have some time left!!!
''Benjamin Button'' and ''Slumdog Millionaire'' lead with 13 and 10 nominations, respectively; Heath Ledger gets a Best Supporting Actor nod, but ''The Dark Knight'' snubbed in Best Picture and Best Director categories.
With 13 nominations — including Best Picture, Best Actor (Brad Pitt), Best Supporting Actress (Taraji P. Henson), and Best Director (David Fincher) — The Curious Case of Benjamin Button leads the field of Academy Award contenders announced this morning in Los Angeles. As expected, Slumdog Millionaire scored big too, nabbing 10 nominations, including Best Picture, Best Director (Danny Boyle), and Best Adapted Screenplay.
Not surprisingly, Heath Ledger was recognized for his supporting role in The Dark Knight, but a widely anticipated Best Picture nomination didn't happen, and director Christopher Nolan came up empty as well. Other notable snubs: Clint Eastwood and Leonardo DiCaprio's turns in Gran Torino and Revolutionary Road, respectively.

Happy carnival teacher!
Hi!
The actor Heath Ledger was a big professional, it's very sad that it he may be dead =/. I believe that he it gains the Oscar as best supporting actor. By the way, he it acted very well in the film "The Dark Knight"
Bye teacher! xD
Im not an oscar addicted but in this year i like the oscar Predictions becouse the actor Heath Ledger competed for best supporting actor after his death.
bye bye ;]
The actor Heath Ledger was the best actor of 2008. He conquered the world doing the Joker, of the movie The Dark Knight. But, he died after having done this role. :P
But its most striking sentence in the film will still stored in the memory of his fans -> " Why so serious? "
