The 2010 Academy Awards Nominations

The nominations for the 82nd Academy Awards were announced early this morning at 5:38 am in Los Angeles by Anne Hathaway and Academy President Tom Sherak.

There was no big surprises, in fact all the previous award nominations for the Golden Globes, SAGs etc are pretty much the same as the Oscar nominations.

Avatar and The Hurt Locker both lead the pack with nine nominations each, which also sees directors (and ex-husband/wife) James Cameron and Kathryn Bigelow going up against each other.

Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin will each co-host the ceremony which airs live March 7 on ABC. What are your picks to win the awards?

Nominations after the jump!!!
