2008 Academy Awards
This is my own list of awards and nominations for the films I've seen this year. Unlike the actual Oscars, it's not just about films that have been released this year so there will be some absent films here such as The Dark Knight which I haven't seen yet. Some categories might not have any nominations such as the Best Foreign Language Film. Hope it's a good read.
