  1. How are there 3 people nominated for Winter's Bone? She shouldn't even be up there. How are these people nominated? They had like one scene each and not noteworthy scenes either. Seriously????? UGH.

  2. OMG I KNOW!!! Everytime I think of Winter's bone I want to cry knowing I lost those 2 hours of my life that I will never ever get back. I will never watch the Oscars ever again if this stupid pointless movie wins best picture, especially over Inception.Leonardo DiCaprio deserves a win this yr, and I'm really glad The Kids Are Allright is getting some recognition, that was good.
