Best Picture: No Country For Old Men (but I was really tempted to pick Michael Clayton)
Best Actor: Viggo Mortenson (loved Eastern Promises too much to pass up but I doubt he wins)
Best Actress: Marion Cotillard (La Mome is the same as La Vie En Rose, correct?)
Best Supporting Actor: Phillip Seymour Hoffman (no doubt)
Best Supporting Actress: Cate Blanchett (kinda felt bad not picking her in Elizabeth)
Best Director: Coen Bros (couldn't go any other way)
Best Animated: Ratatouille (nowhere near my favorite animated but no way I pick Freddy Prinze Jr.)
Best Documentary: Sicko (as much controversy as Moore brings up, i think everyone has to agree that this was very well done)
I didn't see Juno, but was it really that amazing? Looking at the previews it look so so-so to me. I'm sure the girl does a terrific job, but I mean come on, nominated for Best Picture? Also, as much as I liked Michael Clayton I think that's the big one nominated for a bunch that doesn't pick up a single win.

Of course I'll have to give it back before it's released but whatever. Been wanting to see this for awhile... |

im sad that all the critics hated the darjeeling limited but I thought it was one of Anderson's best films. Right behind Rushmore and infront of The Royal Tenebaums.

So I saw 'No Country For Old Men' again. I still think Philip Seymour Hoffman should win Best Supporting Actor. It is not a knock on Badem at all. Hoffman just gave that good of a performance.

Definitely not. But it was still better than Surf's Up.

Hoffman just gave that good of a performance. i'll definitely have to check out Charlie Wilson's War then. If Hoffman gives a better performance than Bardem I want to see it. |

I mean, Bardem gives a damn good performance. I just think the actual character being more badass influences the contest. If you simply base it on the work done by each actor, you can see Hoffman gets a slight edge. |
