Oscar Nominees are announced, ‘Lincoln’ leads the pack with 12 nominations!!

Oscar nominations are out, and for the MOST part, I agree. I’m not sure how I feel about ‘Lincoln’ raking in the most nominations with 12 noms, or the fact that Leonardo DiCaprio wasn’t nominated for ‘Django Unchained’ (he was ROBBED). I’m also not sure how on earth Ben Affleck wasn’t nominated for Best Director for ‘Argo’, Tom Hooper was snubbed for ‘Les Miserables’ and Kathryn Bigelow was snubbed as well for ‘Zero Dark Thirty’. According to journalists, there was an audible gasp when all three directors were snubbed.

I thought ‘Lincoln’ was a good movie, but if I’m being honest, I thought ‘Django Unchained’ was better. I’m really surprised by a couple of these nominations. Check them out!
