THEY LOVE THAT WALL-E!
I am beginning to think that "WALL-E", this year's Pixar Animated Studios release, may have a shot at getting a Best Picture nominations. It has already won two Best Picture awards at the precursors and it is now nominated at the Chicago Film Critics Awards for Best Picture, overshadowing such contenders as "Frost/Nixon", "The Reader", "Revolutionary Road" and "The Wrestler".On the other hand, Josh Brolin and James Franco, the supporting players of "Milk", were both snubbed. Heath Ledger is a near lock for the win at the Oscars as of now.
