I've been wanting to see NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN, but I haven't had time and now it's no longer in my local theater. Hopefully it will come back during the Oscar buzz. I'll be seeing THERE WILL BE BLOOD sometime this week. It's been awhile since I last saw a movie (AMERICAN GANGSTER).
Looks like you TRANSFORMERS fans will be pleased to hear that it's up for the F/X category.
