Glad to see Milk with an ensemble nomination. One of my comments in my review was that Sean Penn's performance will probably overshadow the rest of the cast, who are all just phenomenal.
I just saw I've Loved You So Long, and I'm sad to see it not on this list. Kristin Scott Thomas was good, but Elsa Zylberstein flat out blew me away. I really hope she lands an Oscar nod.
Slumdog Millionaire for best Ensemble? The Dark Knight, Revolutionary Road, Rachel Getting Married are at least three that could easily replace that spot. Slumdog Millionaire really is gonna win it all, since the inexplicably a** kissing has taken a new height.
The Leonardo DiCaprio snub is actually appalling. One of the best performances of the year, no doubt. Michael Shannon not being nominated is also ridiculous. Most people are pointing out that Winslet was not as strong as DiCaprio or Shannon in the film, and I agree. I hate that she got nominated.
I am voting for the dark knight for the joker great proformens i vote of heath ledger!
