I'm confused: did they revoke Jackman's and Barks' nominations? http://www.pressacademy.com/project/les-miserables/
That's what it looks like. That's pretty harsh. It's not like either were a threat for the win, so they should've just let them stand if it was a mistake.
They should've revoked Anne Hathaway's nomination too![]()

I miss when they used to have Supporting Comedy and Drama categories, but I still love them for being disorganized messes and retracting nominations.
Great. Now who's going to watch Sunday Rose on SAG night??
Like, who votes on these? Who attends their ceremonies? It's all so bizarre.
Love Goodman got in for Flight. Why didn't they get the memo about Cranston?? :O
I love how, whenever something is shut out, people ask about eligibility. No, Rust and Bone and The Impossible were not ineligible; voters just hated them.
The Satellites always bring out the best in AD.

You can do it, Naomi! You're...
ONLY 10 EASY STEPS AWAY FROM OSCAR!
1.) Bankrupt small, independent distributor via massive Oscar campaign. Failing that, proceed to...
2.) Cash in King Kong residual checks to pay for FYC advertisements from Kinko's.
3.) To avoid getting sent straight to VOD, attach entire film as a "trailer" to another film people actually want to see. And then...
4.) Try to do it Lahti-style and win Academy Award for Best Short Film.
5.) Avoid telling a story that everyone already knows by adding exciting details and/or gratuitous editing.
6. Carefully and patiently weather the wrath of film critics/the royal family/the tabloids/Diana-maniacs for trying to add said details. (Good luck!)
7. Find all of the boxes with "August: Osage County" screeners and slip in self-made cam bootleg from premiere screening at Lowes...the hardware store.
(Not Loews, the movie theater -- too expensive!)
8. Trick octogenarian Oscar voters into thinking that you are, in fact, a real princess. (Hey, it worked on Eva Marie Saint!)
9. On Oscar night, have camera crews come to Nicole's house, Joan Crawford-style, so you can win and keep your day job.
10. OSCAR!
Someone should call the secretary and ask her what the deal is with Jackman and Barks.
