This issue the Bob Award nominations are back! Once again, instead of complaining about where the Oscars got it wrong, I have created my own movie awards which have no trophies, no influence, and no meaning of any kind. But hey, it's fun. So I present (drum roll, please) The Bob Award nominations for the 2009 movie year. Winners will be announced in the next issue.
