The 2011 Academy Award nominees were announced early this morning. 10 films are up for Best Picture, including my pick for the win ‘Inception,’ however Christopher Nolan was notably snub from the Best Director nominees list. He also failed to make the directing list last year after the phenomenal success of ‘The Dark Knight.’
‘The Fighter’ is up for Best Picture. Christian Bale and Amy Adams each received nominations in for the film, but Mark Wahlberg was snubbed for his performance.
Golden Globe contenders ‘The Tourist’ and ‘Burlesque’ were also totally absent from every category. Both films failed to land a single nomination. Looks like Ricky Gervais was right.
Despite his heavy campaign efforts, Justin Timberlake was snubbed along with his co-star, Andrew Garfield. Ryan Gosling was generating huge Oscar buzz for his performance in ‘Blue Valentine,’ but didn’t make the list. Mila Kunis was another actress that we all assumed would make the cut. Unfortunately she too was snubbed. Barbara Hershey was another actress that should be on the list for her supporting performance in “The Black Swan.”

Sony has revealed that Rhys Ifans has scored the role of the villain in their reboot of the ‘Spider-Man’ franchise if he wants it. Unfortunately that is about all we know at this point, as Sony are staying tight lipped as to who that actual villain will be.
Per MTV:
If he accepts the offer, Ifans will join a growing cast list that already includes Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker and Emma Stone as his ill-fated first love Gwen Stacy.
You may not know the actor’s name, but you’ve likely seen him in quirky roles in films like ‘Notting Hill‘, ‘Pirate Radio‘, and a great supporting performance in last year’s ‘Greenberg‘. In addition to this Spider-Man casting, Ifans is likely to become more familiar following his upcoming appearance in the first part of ‘Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.’
What do you think? Does Ifans project enough menace for a Spider-Man villain? And what villain do you think that will be? (I’m going to throw The Lizard out as a left-field suggestion.)

Sony Pictures has just confirmed by sending out a press release that British heartthrob Andrew Garfield has been cast as the next Spider-Man, scheduled to be released in July 2012 in 3D. The new film will begin production in early December, directed by Marc Webb and written by James Vanderbilt.
Per Washington Post:
“Though his name may be new to many, those who know this young actor’s work understand his extraordinary talents,” said director Webb in a gushing statement that was part of the same press release. “He has a rare combination of intelligence, wit, and humanity. Mark my words, you will love Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker.”
Garfield and Webb got the jobs after star Tobey Maguire and director Sam Raimi, who made three blockbuster “Spider-Man” films together, departed amid story and scheduling issues over a fourth movie. Among others who were said to be considered for the part were Josh Hutcherson, Jamie Bell, Anton Yelchin, and Aaron Johnson. Garfield most recently worked with director David Fincher on the upcoming film “The Social Network.” Other notable screen credits include “The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus,” “Lions For Lambs” and “Boy A.”

Adele won Album of the Year at this years BRIT Awards and flipped off the awards show executives at the end of the show.

Just one more reason I love me some Adele. The ‘Someone Like You’ singer was cut off just as she getting her acceptance speech rolling.
