The National Board of Review announced some good news for fans of Danny Boyle's Slumdog Millionaire and great news for fans of David Fincher. Slumdog Millionnaire is officially tapped as a lead contender for an Oscar bid and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button won't go unnoticed as some people have speculated.

Essentially, the Annual Satellite Award nominations (now in their 13th year) is some crazy round up that resembles what the Golden Globes usually looks like, and with the extra categories it comes as no surprise that we find a horrible picture like Baz Luhrmann's Australia leading the nominations (thankfully it covers the tech categories and not the main) with Van Sant's Milk and Boyle's Slumdog leading the main caegories.
