Other Notable Nominees: Christopher Nolan (The Dark Knight), James Marsh (Man On Wire), Woody Allen (Vicky Cristina Barcelona) & Andrew Stanton (Wall-E)

It was as if Andrew Adamson was so determined to just tell his story through technical aspects, he left out all the fun out of 'The Prince Caspian', an action adventure piece, by squandering the only living thing in front of the cameras- the actors.

Other Notable Nominees: Felicia Lloyd (Mamma Mia!), Peter Segal (Get Smart) Steven Spielberg (Indiana Jones) & Paul Weiland (Made of Honor)
