Avatar is clearly the big one to still wait and see and Invictus in my mind. There are some few that leak out, but overall it's been bad. @Travis I disagree, with the strike in 07 a lot of movies were rushed to be put out this past year, especially the summer blockbusters. there were too many flops mediocre movies.

Nick, Up in the Air is great, personally I don't think it's best picture material but the way critics are treating it so far it may very well nag a few Oscars maybe even best picture.

I have not seen it. It's too bad this year was a down year for films. Had it been a great year, the Oscar field expansion would have looked like a great idea. @Dan, I will have to check out “In the Loop.” I have not seen it.

I think that 2009 has been a great year for movies. A lot of my faves surely won't be nominated (except for maybe Star Trek and definitely Up). My guess for the winner remains to be Up In The Air.
