If these were the only five Best Picture nominees, 2009 would be a banner Oscar year.
Still, five solid to great to classic contenders out of 10 would win the batting crown any year.  Not a lot of surprises, aside from Cinematography, where Avatar and Harry Potter nabbed some spots that could have gone to the more deserving A Single/Serious Man.  Interesting as well that two of the Best Score nominees are animated features, and that Up and Fantastic Mr. Fox may have the best scores of the year. (Full list)
