District 9 = science fiction (Oliver beat 2001 to Best Picture, which tells you all you need to know about how the Academy treats science fiction)
Up = animation (another genre which the Oscars ignore)
Inglorious Basterds = er...no idea really.
And I think Mark Kermode summed it up about Sandra Bullock:
'She's funny, she's gorgeous, it's impossible not to love her and yet she makes rotten film after rotten film after rotten film.'
