Who got a boost?:
- Frost/Nixon. It seems to be getting better reception than this year's other high profile stage-to-screen adaptation (Doubt), but it had yet to pick up any significant wins until now.
- Iron Man for visual effects.
- Benjamin Button in the artistic categories.
- Frank Langella for Best Actor.
- Kate Winslet for Best Actress.
Who got snubbed?:
- Slumdog Millionaire, though I doubt that this is a significant blow to its Best Picture chances.
- Penelope Cruz for Supporting Actress. So long to the front-runner status. The race is now wide open.
- Australia in the artistic categories.
- Leonardo Di Caprio for Best Actor.
- Sally Hawkins for Best Actress.

I dunno if I would call supporting actress WIDE OPEN. She's still clearly the favorite.
