2009 OSCAR Nominees

Hosted by Academy Award Winner Forest Whitaker and Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences President Sid Ganis, announced the nominees for the 2009 Oscars. The Ceremony will be held on January 22, 2009 (January 23 in Manila) still not sure if it will be at Kodak Theater in Hollywood. I was a bit disappointed that Leonardo Di Caprio wasn't nominated, no that I am big fan but I strongly believe he was really deserving of a nomination for the film Revolutionary Road.

My prediction on who might win:

Best Picture --- Slumdog Millionaire
Best Actor --- Frank Langella
Best Actress --- Kate Winslet
Best Supporting Actor --- Heath Ledger
Best Supporting Actress --- Viola Davis

Below is a list of nominees for the major awards:
