Saturn Awards, Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror Films (Bilim Kurgu, Fantastik ve Korku Filmleri Akademisi) tarafından 1972'den bu yana her sene dağıtılan ödüllerdir.
Akademi, bu yıl Burbank Kaliforniya'da 24 Haziran'da 36.sı düzenlenecek olan ödüllerin adaylarını açıkladı. Tahmin edileceği üzere Avatar, en iyi fantastik film ve en iyi yönetmen dalları dahil 10 dalda aday. Birden çok ödüle aday gösterilen filmler arasında Sherlock Holmes (8), Watchmen (7), Inglorious Basterds(7), District 9 (6) ve Star Trek (6) bulunuyor.
Ayrıca, Saturn Ödülleri, Sam Rockwell'i, Moon'daki performansıyla En İyi Aktör ödülüne aday gösterdi. Yılın gerçekten de en iyi performanslarından birini gösteren Sam Rockwell'i Oscar Akademisinin önemsememesi de hayli ilginçti.
