Oscar Predictions

The Academy Awards begin in just a couple hours. I failed to do this sooner, but meant to. Better late than never I suppose.

My picks, if you will:

Best Original Screenplay
Will Win: Juno
Should Win: Juno

Actress in a Supporting Role
Will Win: Ruby Dee
Should Win: Ruby Dee

Actress in a Leading Role
Will Win: Julie Christie
Should Win: Marion Cotillard
Could Surprise: Ellen Page, the buzz is surrounding Juno going into this thing.

Actor in a Supporting Role
Will Win: Javier Bardem
Should Win: Javier Bardem
Honorable Mention: Casey Affleck, I just saw The Assasination of Jesse James last week and Casey was amazing in this film.
Could Surprise: Hal Holbrook, if The Academy goes the honor route.

Actor in a Leading Role
Will Win: Daniel Day Lewis
Should Win: Daniel Day Lewis (tremendous, can't say enough about this guy)

Directing
Will Win: No Country for Old Men
Should Win: No Country for Old Men (Coen Brothers...just sayin')

Best Picture
Will Win: toughest category, I'm going to say No Country for Old Men though
Should Win: No Country for Old Men, but There Will Be Blood was good too.
Could Surprise: Juno (lot's of buzz I say...kind of like Crash that one year)
