2009 Nominees For Best Motion Picture - 81st Academy Awards

There is no clear favorite for Best Picture for the 2009 Academy Awards. I'm hoping The Dark Knight can pull it off, but comic book action type movies have never been well like by the Academy so there leaves serious room for doubt. Hopefully, all the hyper over Heath Ledger's ingenious portrayal as The Joker will lend enough credibility to the picture it needs to be seriously considered. Other possibilites this year include Milk,The Changeling, Nixon/Frost, Revolutionary Road, Australia and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.
