The nominations for the 83rd Annual Academy Awards have been announced, and Inception heads the Science Fiction category with 8 nominations, including Best Picture. It was the 4th biggest movie released in 2010 by sales, with over 8 million dollars at the box office. If it were to win Best Picture, it would be the first Science Fiction film to do so.

Another category Inception is nominated for is the Sound Editing category, where it goes up against Tron: Legacy. One can only wonder why Tron: Legacy was not nominated for Visual Editing, but it was not. In that category, Inception goes up against Iron Man 2, Alice in Wonderland, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows and Hereafter.

My feeling is that The Social Network will win Best Picture (and rightly so.) But Inception certainly deserves recognition for the fine piece of work it is.
