How many of the Oscar-Nominated movies have you seen?

Okay, I've taken out the "non-major" categories (in my opinion-sorry if there's disagreements) such as documentary, foreign language & short films, and there are 30 different movies nominated this year:

If I did it right, the poll will end the day before the Oscars, so hold off on voting if you want to!

A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE
BATMAN BEGINS
BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN
CAPOTE
CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY
CINDERELLA MAN
CRASH
GOOD NIGHT, AND GOOD LUCK.
HARRY POTTER AND THE GOBLET OF FIRE
HOWL'S MOVING CASTLE
HUSTLE & FLOW
JUNEBUG
KING KONG
MATCH POINT
MEMOIRS OF A GEISHA
MRS. HENDERSON PRESENTS
MUNICH
NORTH COUNTRY
PRIDE & PREJUDICE
STAR WARS: EPISODE III REVENGE OF THE SITH
SYRIANA
THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA: THE LION, THE WITCH AND THE WARDROBE
THE CONSTANT GARDENER
THE NEW WORLD
THE SQUID AND THE WHALE
TIM BURTON'S CORPSE BRIDE
TRANSAMERICA
WALK THE LINE
WALLACE & GROMIT IN THE CURSE OF THE WERE-RABBIT
WAR OF THE WORLDS

How many of these have you seen? It's been a WEAK movie year for me--I've only seen Batman, Star Wars, War of the Worlds, Charlie & the Chocolate Factory & Harry Potter (the last 2 because of the kids & War of the Worlds on dvd).

P.S. Never done a poll, so bear with me...

Weak year for me as well, but I'll most likely at least see all the Oscar-nominated Best Pictures before the awards ceremony.

Not bad for living in a town with no theater.

2..... I guess I either watch movies that aren't the best, or I just dont go to the movies that often.

Can I ask why you aren't going to see Match Point?

Only because it's not showing near me, and I have next to no time right now for extras. I'd like to see it, but I can't.
