The big snub of the day is Winter's Bone not getting into the best feature category; one that hopefully will be remedied by the Academy, likely at the expense of either The Town or 127 Hours, otherwise a fairly standard, and probable Academy-approved selection.

I would suggest the animated feature category will look the same, if not then alternate the French film The Illusionist with Despicable Me.

Most unsurprising, but disappointing snub: Exit Through the Gift Shop, the gleefully inventive, fun-house documentary fails to garner a nomination; sadly I expect the Academy to follow suit.
