I think A Serious Man was just thrown in because the Coens have won a lot of Oscars in the past, I dont think it had a serious chance of winning. I think IB gets nominated before it. I liked both movies a lot though.

Maybe its just my opinion getting in the way though, I though Inglorious Basterds was the best movie of the year.

I think Hurt Locker mostly won because a lot of people didn't really want Avatar winning because it was so trite, and that was the movie that got rallied around.
