Drive got nominated for Best Sound Editing.

##hex309:A separation got nominated under Best Foreign Language Film.

##eggman:Dude the nomination seems fair for the best picture,seen The tree of life,Midnight in Paris,Moneyball,The Help and these are worth considering.But agreed with the case of Drive as everybody mentioned,it would have been better if it was nominated for Original SCore and cinemotography..........

I think Moneyball is not 'Best Picture' material. It was good, but not great. And don't get me wrong, I worship Aaron Sorkin. So I was very much looking forward to this movie.

And yeah, Drive should have also got nominated for Original Score. And I really thought it is strong contender in Cinematography. Oscars have been weird(er) in last few years

Not seen Tree of Life and Help yet.
 
Ra.One is nominated for Golden Shower and Golden Brick award. There is a buzz that it will win both of those, as there is no competition.
