Microsoft has a thingie talking about 25 years of Excel. The graphic has a picture of a Gundam. Twenty-five years ago who'd've thought?
Though clearly my niche fandoms have not invaded enough. Only a "Best Sound Mixing" nomination for Tron:Legacy. Really? That's the best you could do? I'd have thrown in for Visual Design and Soundtrack, since its rare to see ones that support a fictional world so well as those. Ah well. I suppose I should content myself that an animated feature is up for Best Picture. Not that it will ever win, but it's interesting. (Though, really, was Toy Story 3 that good? I haven't seen it, but it has to have been a factor better than its original predecessor for me to think it Best Picture material.) And that said, I'm still rooting for How To Train Your Dragon to win Best Animated Feature.
