The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences unveiled the nominations for the 84th Academy Awards this morning and the big surprise was that Martin Scorsese’s Hugo lead the pack with eleven, while Michel Hazanavicius’ silent film The Artist received ten.
Under the Academy’s new rules – and sliding scale for Best Picture nominations – Hugo and The Artist were joined by seven other films, one less than the maximum allowable.
The complete list of nominations – and a few words of commentary – follow the jump.

The BAFTA [British Oscars] Nominations were revealed this morning and there are some major surprises in some of the major categories.
Hugo and Moneyball failed to draw Best Film nods, while Drive and The Help succeeded. Hugo’s Martin Scorsese, on the other hand, was nominated for Best Director while The Help’s Tate Taylor and The Descendants’ Alexander Payne were not. Probably the biggest surprise, though, is the absence of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 from either of the Best Film or Outstanding British film categories.
Tomas Alfredson’s Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy received noms for both Best Film and Outstanding British Film – and Alfredson scored a Best Director nom, as well.

With all the differing selections in most of the main categories, the various critics groups have definitely made any speculation on the Oscars® a crap shoot.
The last major critics group, The National Society of Film Critics, has checked in with its choices for the best in film for 2011 and, surprise, they’ve chosen the deeply odd and beautiful end-of-the-world/study of clinical depression film, Melancholia – directed by Lars Von Trier – as best film of 2011.
Melancholia lead Kirsten Dunst was named Best Actress and Brad Pitt nabbed Best Actor for his work in Moneyball and The Tree of Life. The Tree of Life’s Terrence Malik was named Best Director.
The complete list of winners follows the jump.

I had the opportunity to attend an advance screening of the 3D release of Beauty and the Beast this morning, not the least because the brilliant Disney classic is well served by its 3D conversion, but also because the wedding that was promised in Disney’s Tangled is the setting for the fabulously frantic farce of Tangled Ever After.
Despite the wedding of Rapunzel [Mandy Moore] and Flynn Rider [Zachary Levi], Tangled Ever After the short is actually a showcase for the smartest characters in the original movie – that would be Pascal the horse and Maximus the chameleon…
