Just to check your math it’s 43 nominated films of which you’ve seen nine (Inglorious Basterds, Avatar, Up, Coraline, Sherlock Holmes, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Food Inc, Star Trek and Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen). I don’t blame you for forgetting Transformers 2 … I wish I could. Also because Oscar Sunday happens in the evening we usually can see one or 2 nominees before the ceremony. That makes it a manageable 34 movies in 34 days!
