Zodiac snubbed

Jim Emerson brings up a good point: David Fincher's Zodiac was unfairly snubbed by the Academy. It deserved, at the very least, editing nominations. Or maybe it deserved a nod for its subtle visual effects, to escape from the Academy's obsession with nominating movies with *big* rather than *artful* visual effects.

still haven't seen it, but it was very polarizing -- at least as polarizing as, say, juno.

it was on as many top-10 lists that i read as it was on worst-lists.
