Oscar 2010: Randy Newman Opts Out of Original Score

Just when we thought we had the Original Score race figured, a old wrench is thrown out. Randy Newman has decided not to enter his score for Toy Story 3 into the race for Best Original Score, making this the first time in four years that a Pixar film has not been nominated in the category. I find it a bit disappointing, because Newman's work is arguably the most emotional this year. There are quite a few worthy scores that are being kicked out of the running, either willingly or forcibly. It does give a bit of comfort that Newman chose this road himself, but I'm still disappointed.
