from five to ten, it was clearly in reaction to last year's failure to
nominate The Dark Knight and a recognition of how more popular movies needed
to be in play in order to boost interest in the Oscars. Last year's
nominees were the least-attended on record at nomination time, but, this
year, the nomination of Avatar alone more than tripled their cumulative
gross."
