Jeff Bridges and Woody Harrelson will represent CelebStoner at the Oscars on Mar. 7. Both are nominated in Best Actor categories. The Coen Brothers' A Serious Man is among the Top 10 up for Best Picture. It's the only movie nominated with marijuana use.

Bridges is nominated for his terrific performance as worn-down country singer Bad Blake in Crazy Heart. It's Bridges' fifth Oscar nom. He's the favorite to win the Best Actor category. Bridges' co-star Maggie Gyllenhaal is nominated for Best Supporting Actress.

For Harrelson, it's his second Oscar nom (his first was for The People vs. Larry Flynt in 1997). He plays Capt. Tony Stone, who informs families about the deaths of soldiers, in The Messenger. Harrelson's nominated in the Best Supporting Actor category.

A Serious Man is nominated for Best Picture and Best Original Screenplay. Set in the '60s, the film stars Michael Stuhlbarg as the desultory Larry Gopnik, who smokes pot in one scene and whose son Danny (Aaron Wolff) gets stoned before his bar mitzvah. It's Joel and Ethan Coen's ninth and 10th noms; they won for Fargo (1997) and No Country for Old Men (2008).

Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin, who share a joint in It's Complicated, will host the Oscars. Check out the complete Oscar noms list here
