Setting Expectations

It's become clear to me that I am just not motivated to make the effort to see all of the Oscar Best Picture nominations before the broadcast. I was not very excited about some of this year's nominations when they were announced, and I have not been able to get excited about them since them. So rather than surprise everybody at the last minute with the bad news, I'm announcing now there is no reasonable expectation that I'll have reviewed them all. You'll just have to go and see the rest for yourselves.
