Cillian Murphy? Seriously? I thought he was Irish too! He was so creepy in Batman Begins, Gary Oldman was much better. Go GOF!!!

I think that he certainly deserves this nomination, and maybe even the award. I haven't seen all of the other movies that they listed, so I dont' know how he measures up against all those other actors. Bravo, though!

That is nice honor. Glad to see some of the new cast members get the nod for their good work. We will get to see him again and that should motivate even better performances.

Well, they are all really good actors/actresses. He definately deserves it, though. He was great in GoF. I thought he was so funny (in a good way!).

He should get that award he is a really good actor. I just realized, I dunno if anyone else knows this but Brendan Gleeson is in the movie Troy staring Brad Pitt, Eric Bana, and Orlando Bloom he plays the character of Menulaus. I started laughing when I realized that!

That's awesome! He did a really good job as Mad-Eye. He has some tough competition though, I have seen almost all of those movies and they are really good. But I'm sure that he will get the award.

Man I'm not sure who I want to win. It'd be nice if Gleeson won because the HP franchise would have something more to hold up on a pedestal. But I really liked the guy from chronicles of Narnia...

That is cool. I love Brendan Gleeson. From Braveheart to The General to Gangs of New York to Michael Collins, and to the fact that he is Irish (like me) - Brendan Gleeson is one of the coolest actors around, and deserves all the awads he gets.

SWEET! Oh, did you guys know that Gary Oldman stared in Batman Begins? As Jim Gordon, you know the guy that helps Batman, the cop. Oooh Cillian Murphy, I thought he was weird in Batman Begins. I think Brendon Glesson will definently win, I hope so. Anything Harry Potter wins in my book.
