Oscar Nominations 2010: 'Avatar' and 'The Hurt Locker' lead with 9 nods each

The world's all-time topgrossing film "Avatar" leads the 82nd Annual Academy Awards or the Oscars 2010 with a total of 9 nominations, as announced on February 2 at the Samuel Goldwyn Theater in Beverly Hills, California.

The James Cameron film is nominated for Best Picture, Art Direction, Cinematography, Film Editing, Original Score, Sound Editing, Sound Mixing, Visual Effects and Best Directing for Cameron.

'Avatar' actually shares the spotlight with "The Hurt Locker," which also has 9 nods in these categories: Cinematography, Directing, Film Editing, Original Score, Best Picture, Sound Editing, Sound Mixing, Original Screenplay and Best Actor for its lead star Jeremy Renner.

Brad Pitt-starret 'Inglourious Basterds' has 8 nominations while "Precious: Based on the Novel 'Push' by Sapphire" and "Up in the Air" both receive 6 nods.

As for the acting categories, most are nominated for the first time in the Oscars like Colin Firth, Jeremy Renner, Christopher Plummer, Stanley Tucci, Christoph Waltz, Sandra Bullock, Gabourey Sidibe, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Anna Kendrick, Mo'Nique and Carey Mulligan (picture).

This year's Oscars also marks Meryl Streep's 16th time to be nominated, the highest in Oscar history. She is currently nominated in the Best Performance by An Actress category for her role in "Julie & Julia". If Sandra Bullock loses the award, Meryl is the 2nd favorite to win and it might be her 3rd Oscar victory.

It's also disappointing to know that Robert Downey Jr. as "Sherlock Holmes" has been snubbed in the Best Actor category.
