		<description>I tweeted a bunch of comments about the nominees...  Here they are!:

I&#039;ll take The Secret of Kells as a nom. it looks awesome. but Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs should get it over Princess and the Frog.

The Princess and the Frog was entirely a let down, while Meatballs was the surprise of the year. (for me)

I&#039;m also surprised Ponyo wasn&#039;t nominated.

So glad The Hurt Locker was nominated for Best Editing. It was my first thought when I left the theater.

Been seeing a lot of REALLY good foreign films for the Spirit Awards, I can&#039;t believe only one has an Oscar nom.

It&#039;s funny that Sandra Bullock and Woody Harrelson made noteworthy movies AND embarrassingly mediocre movies this year.

Yay for Aardman getting a nominee!

And lastly, I&#039;m disappointed Star Trek didn&#039;t get many nominations. What about best Cinematography? 
Good to see Inglorious Basterds is back on the map.</description>
