With the Oscars right around the corner, there are plenty of buzz and excitement, of course, for the nominees. This year's batch of Oscar nominations has been full of surprises with its expected and some unexpected Oscar nominees such as the British monarchy saga The King's Speech which leads the awards race with a whopping 12 nominations, including best picture and acting honors for its cast of luminaries.

Also in the running for Best Picture are cinematic gems like ballet thriller Black Swan; Coen Brother's True Grit, boxing drama The Fighter; Chris Nolan's mind-numbing Inception; Toy Story 3, the lesbian-family comedy The Kids Are All Right, 127 Hours, Winter's Bone and The Social Network.

For the longest time, we thought nothing can stop The Social Network (for showing us how Mark Zuckerberg became the youngest billionaire in history or Black Swan (for the awesome scene of Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis locking lips ... and more). But in comes The King's Speech which has won a bevy of prizes from the other awards show.
