Nominees are in alphabetical order.

Cloned From: 

If it's good female leads you're looking for, I suggest Charlize Theron in In the Valley of Elah and Keri Russell in Waitress, the latter of which would be a good Breakthrough nominee as well.

Also, I am so there with you on the Zoe Bell love.

Awesome! Thanks for the suggestions, cuz boy, do I need them. Between these two and Cosgrove's Oscar nominations, I should be good. Now, to get off my ass and see them...

I'd say that the one to beat at this point is Carice Van Houten in BLACK BOOK, who's amazing and super hot to boot. Just my two cents.

I'm glad to see you like 3:10 to Yuma, because I look at my Muriel's list and feel like I must be the only person who gave a damn.
