How did shark tale get the nomination? Lack of competition.

I am glad Jamie Foxx got the double nomination as he deserves it and could really use it. He is a pretty damn good actor but he has never really gotten the parts. Maybe now he will start getting some more.

I am surprised that Polar Express didn't get a nomination for visual effects. I only say that because of the way it was made.

Overall I think the acadmy over looked earlier films once again. Its hard when a lot of good films come out at the end of the year. I think they need to wait one more month or so to let the feelings fade so they can be more objective.
