Oscar Predictions!!!

Yes, I know that's a picture of Oskar Kokoshka, but still, that's a cool Oscar, and so are these Oscars, as in, the Academy Awards, which will be announced in two days, the nominations I mean. Here are my predictions for the nominees....

BEST PICTURE

So, "No Country" has a nomination in the bag, but there is some confusion over what will be the other 4 nominees. Some people are in favor of "Michael Clayton" and "Into the Wild." However, I am in favor of "Diving Bell" and "Atonement." As for the other two spots, they're gonna go to "There Will Be Blood," and my personal favorite, "Sweeney Todd."

BEST DIRECTOR

This is also a very competitive category. In my opinion, two of the spots are already held by The Coen Bros., and Julian Schnabel. As for the other three, let's say, Paul T. Anderson, Sidney Lumet, and Tim Burton.

BEST ACTOR

Well, of course Mr D.D-Lewis has a spot, as does, in my opinion, Johnny Depp. the other three spots will go/should go to, George Clooney, Viggo Mortensen, and Emile Hirsch.

BEST ACTRESS

As with the previous category, there is another person who has a definite spot, in this case, Julie Christie. And I do believe the Academy will include young actress Ellen Page as well. Golden Globe winner Marion Cottilard will probably also get a nod, with the 4th spot going to Angelina Jolie. And just for fun, let's put Helena Bonham Carter in the mix.

BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR

Why must every category have an obvious candidate? I'm talking to you, Javier Bardem. Rounding out this category is Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Tom Wilkinson, Hal Holbrook, and Paul Dano.

BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS

Now come one Academy, you know you can't reject a female Bob Dylan, aka Cate Blanchett. Or a bitchy 12 year old girl, aka Saiorse Ronan. The other three spaces, Amy Ryan, Tilda Swinton, and (sure why not?) Marisa Tomei.

This Tuesday, be prepared, for the nominations that will
