Well, I've finally seen all the Oscar nominees, and none of them have displaced Argo as my top film of the year. I still can't believe Affleck didn't get a Best Director nod. WTF, Academy?

I don't think Nolan is a bad director, but his style of film-making leaves me cold. I think the Joker bits of TDK were the only time I felt something other than frustration or boredom. After slogging through Inception, I was done with him.
Neither Affleck nor Bigelow were nominated? Sometimes I wonder what's happening in the addled brains of the Academy. Do they actually watch the films/performances they vote for?
I was talking about the rankings. Sorry for the confusion. There probably won't be any sales data for a few days, but chances are there's a sizable gap in units sold also.
It's now the number one selling movie on Amazon by a wide margin. Yay! Hopefully long term sales remain brisk. At the very least, this film deserves cult classic status.
