Hobbit Leads in Saturn Award Can't Post

http://www.saturnawards.org/index.html

The Hobbit has nine nominations for Best Fantasy Film, Best Actor and Supporting Actor, Director, Design, Music, Costume, Make-up and Special Effects.

Apparently the (American) public can become members of the Academy and place their votes, though it's not cheap!

just looked at all the noms [In reply to] Can't Post

Elementary (The original "totally not copying Sherlock, Sherlock Holmes series") is nominated. But, isn't Saturn Award an award thing for science fiction or fantasy. As far as I'm aware, Elementary is just a modern day Sherlock Holmes. Doesn't fit in to Science fiction or fantasy. Not going to say anything about the show's quality, jut that I thought that Saturn awards was about science fiction and fantasy

How does Les Miz qualify as s.f., fantasy or horror? I do sorta understand how Skyfall fits in when contemplating the Bond films as a whole, but even that seems dicey.
