This week, Academy-Award nominee Heath Ledger passed away. So incredibly sad and tragic! I a not even a huge fan, nor have I seen a lot of his films, but still! Only 28!

On a lighter note, the Oscar nominations were released this week! (Hopefully they won't be cancelled, like the Golden Globes.) Not surprising films were nominated like "There Will Be Blood", "No Country For Old Men" and "Michael Clayton". AND my favorite actor of all time got nominated for Best Actor, Johnny Depp for his performance in my favorite film of the year, "Sweeney Todd"! I am incredibly excited for that. I thought the movie was brilliant. Anyway, one movie that surprised me with all it's nominations was "Juno". It got nominated for Best Actress (Ellen Page) and for Best Picture, two of the most prestigious awards given! Don't get me wrong, I saw the movie and really enjoyed it. I mean, it had the type of humor I encounter every day, and had a good plot, but I certainly didn't think it Oscar-worthy! Well, I'm happy for the small film anyway, I suppose.

As a last note, R.I.P. Heath Ledger...
