I'm Dana Ward and we're breaking down all of the nominations for the 2010 Oscars. Even with the Academy doubling the Best Picture nods - apparently in an attempt to catch a younger viewing audience - most of the included films fall into the expected category. Avatar, An Education, The Hurt Locker, The Blind Side, Inglorious Basterds, Precious, A Serious Man, Up, Up in the Air and District 9. Five of those movies got Best Director nominations for James Cameron, Kathryn Bigelow, Quentin Tarantino, Lee Daniels and Jason Reitman. In the Best Leading Actor category, Jeff Bridges, George Clooney, Colin Firth, Morgan Freeman and Jeremy Renner with Best Leading Actress going to Sandra Bullock, Hellen Mirren, Carey Mulligan, Gabourey Sidibe and Meryl Streep. The Animated Feature Film nominations include Coraline, Fantastic Mr. Fox, The Princess and the Frog, The Secret of Kells and Up. Best Cinematography had a nod for Harry Potter in there, Star Trek got a Best Makeup nomination and Sherlock Holmes got included in the Music - Original Score breakdown. This year's hosts include funny guys Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin, so it's expected to be quite the performance for the show March 7th on ABC.
