I just checked (control+F: paranoid) last year's awards' nominations, and no one nominated Paranoid Park last year, but can anyone double-check to see that I didn't overlook it.

I already checked earlier and didn't see it, just assumed it was '07 as that's the bulk of the release dates

CLASHES UPDATEThere are currently clashes, despite early discussion on Lead/Supporting. Aaron Eckhart and Heath Ledger should both be Lead, I think. At present, Ledger has one nomination in each category; Eckhart has two nominations for Supporting. While I think he should be Lead, I won't quibble too much if all nominate him for Supporting. Amy Adams has been nominated by RRA for Best Supporting Female in Doubt. I thought she was Lead? (I've not seen the film.) I'd say The Wrestler has one Lead - Mickey Rourke. RRA has nominated Marisa (Melissa?) Tomei for Lead Female; I've nominated her for Supporting. I've already said my piece on this, but to reiterate: The Dark Knight has three leads: Bale, Ledger & Eckhart. Freeman, Oldman, Caine, Gyllenhaal, etc, are supporting. Doubt has three leads: Streep, Hoffman & Adams. Davis is supporting. The Wrestler has one lead. We have to make a decision on this, ultimately, as we have to decide whose votes to count.

I think Amy Adams' role is a really important supporting role, not quite a lead.
Wetdog and Omar, are you guys gonna post your nominations soon?

Paranoid Park wasn't voted for last year, but it had had a theatrical release, I think. I'm sure RNL had seen it.
I won't argue if people want to nominate it.

Yeah, I'd seen it. I don't care though. It certainly wasn't a wide release at all.

The Dark Knight has three leads: Bale, Ledger & Eckhart. I would consider Eckhart as supporting and other two as leads. As I am not voting, I am really not bothered by it though.

I was the first person. I posted it like 3 weeks ago on the 1st page of this topic, and have been editing it as I see fit.

There were unforeseen circumstances; my brother bought Street Fighter IV and it's just too fucking good, I've been playing it non-stop for like eight hours.
I will have a ballot up in a few minutes, nevertheless.
