To the Academy:

PLEASE give it to Scorsese this year! Eastwood has enough Oscars on his mantle!

Thank you

And the award for best emoticon usage goes to...
Zensteve!
Zensteve unfortunately couldn't come, so in his place :cool: will be accepting the award.

That link wasn't the best for showing the nominations.. perhaps it does mention all of them, but it's WAY too much to read... ;)

Try this one: http://www.oscar.com/nominees/?pn=list

Here's my partial list of picks:

Are we picking who SHOULD win or who will win? Here's who I think will win:
(partial list, have to think about the rest more)

Actor (Leading): probably either Dicaprio or Will Smith
Actor (Supporting): I've heard buzz about Eddie Murphy
Animated Feature: Cars will likely win, even though Monster House was a much more enjoyable film.
Director: Letters from Iwo Jima -- History shows that Clint Eastwood can clean house in this category
Music (Song): Holding 3 of the 5 slots, it will be shocking if Dreamgirls doesn't take it
Short Film (Animated): Little Match Girl -- I haven't seen it, but I heard about it, and that's got to count for something
Visual Effects: Pirates, no question.


I wish the Prestige would have gotten more nominations, writing at least... it was one of the most enjoyable films to come out of the system in a while -- Original Fiction anyway.

That's all I've got. I try not to think about picking who will or should win anymore, typically I am disappointed by the outcome.
