Academy Awards

It’s that time of year again, time for the 2011 Academy Award nominations to be announced. On Tuesday morning, this year’s Oscar nominations were announced and we’ve got the full list of nominees for you.

There were a few surprises. For instance, there was no nomination for Ben Affleck, nor was there any Best Director nod for Christopher Nolan.  “Toy Story 3″ was nominated for Best Picture and lots of love went to “Winter’s Bone”.

“The King’s Speech” leads the way with 12 Oscar nominations, and “The Social Network” is close behind with 8 nods.

Check out the full list below and tune in to the 83rd Annual Academy Awards on February 27, co-hosted by Anne Hathaway and James Franco, who is also up for an award for his performance in “127 Hours”. Scroll all the way down for more in the video below.
