As you probably know, there are 10 nominees for Best Picture this year. But as you may not know, Academy voters are being asked to rank their picks on their final ballot -- it's a weighted system. So, for posterity's sake -- and because I have a few moments this morning -- here is how I would rank my Best Picture ballot ....
1. A Serious Man
2. The Hurt Locker
3. Avatar
4. Up in the Air
5. Precious
6. Up
7. Inglourious Basterds
8. An Education
9. District 9
10. The Blind Side
