Breand, remember that most of the "Oscar bait" movies are saved up until the end of the year, so they are fresh in the academy's mind. Things like Up In The Air, Invictus, Precious, Nine, A Single Man, The Lovely Bones, The Road, A Serious Man, Crazy Heart, etc all only came out recently or are on limited release.
I also really want to see a bunch of movies from earlier in the year, including The Hurt Locker (strong Oscar contender), District 9, Where the Wild Things Are, (500) Days of Summer, Fantastic Mr Fox, and Inglorious Basterds. I also hear great things about Sherlock Holmes.
I think it's been a great year for intelligent "popcorn" movies, with Avatar, Star Trek, Up, District 9, Sherlock Holmes, etc. Haven't seen enough of the "serious" movies to judge how good it has been overall.
