“Hurt Locker”

“The Hurt Locker” got a total of 9 nominations, including best picture, best actor, best director and best original screenplay.

Director Kathryn Bigelow and actor Jeremy Renner appeared on the Today show shortly after the nomination. Bigelow was quite gracious, saying she was honored to be among the nominees, which included James Cameron, her ex-husband, for “Avatar.”

After looking at the competition, Renner said he’d have to break some serious legs. The fellow actor nominees included Jeff Bridges for “Crazy Heart,” George Clooney for “Up in the Air,” Colin Firth for “A Single Man,” and Morgan Freeman for “Invictus.”

The big competition for “The Hurt Locker,” of course, includes “Avatar” and “Up in the Air,” both of which got multiple nominations. More on that later.
