As award season is definitely upon us with the Golden Globes, Grammy's, SAG and the Oscars, we are all trying to figure out who will be nominated. Already with the Golden Globes at the end of January, it's going to be a great race with Meryl Streep with two nominations in the same category for two different movies. I believe Sandra Bullock has two nominations for "The Proposal" and "The Blind Side." The main focus on the post is that Anna Kendrick who plays Jessica in The Twilight Saga films is nominated for Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role in a Motion Picture for "Up in the Air". I have heard good reviews for this movie and i definitely plan to see it before the Oscar nominations are announced. I'm not sure when, but I will definitely post the nominations for that.

I found out that Kendrick has been nominated for very prestigious awards such as the Tony Award. There is a lot of people who bash fantasy movies like Harry Potter and Twilight, saying that the actors will never be taken seriously because of their staple as their character. I find that to be true in some parts, but it doesn't have to be that way. Shia LaBeouf definitely broke out of the Disney shell by doing movies that credit him now as an action star. It will be difficult for actors like Zac Efron and other Disney stars because they are already so wrapped into it. With Kendrick's nomination, it will hopefully prove that there is life after a mega successful popular teen phenomena. It is already been reported that Kendrick has joined the cast of an untitled drama comedy starring James McAvoy. So good luck Anna on your success.
