"Alice in Wonderland," "Avatar," "Inception" and "Toy Story 3" are among the movies that have earned nominations for the Hollywood Post Alliance's 2010 HPA Awards.

"Glee," "Mad Men" and "True Blood" all figure in the TV races.

The winners will be announced at ceremonies recognizing achievements in post production Nov. 11 at the Skirball Cultural Center in Los Angeles.

"With more submissions than ever before, this year's nominations represent some of the finest and most creative work our industry has to offer.
