So many snubs, so little time. And yeah, the greatest crime of all was "The Dark Knight" got ignored! Ignored! And Bruce Springsteen's harrowing song for "The Wrestler" snubbed? Que Horror!
Dev Patel for "Slumdog Millionaire," Clint Eastwood's performance for "Gran Torino," "Let the Right One In" for Foreign Language Film, and so on and so forth.
So I did some sleuthing, and found this article from Variety! The headline? Oscar Voting System Deciphered!
Yeah, how do Academy members really vote? And how do PricewaterhouseCoopers really tally the votes?
Well, click here, it's a good read, you'll feel better!

( 2.9 / 88 )The role of Mo in "Inkheart" is written specifically by author Cornelia Funke with Brendan Fraser in mind.
So how was it to finally play the part?
Fraser and co-star Eliza Hope Bennett sat down and revealed experiences working in the film, the magic of reading, and their favorite literary characters to bring back to life!
This is fun :)
