Posted on 02/26/2005 12:19:12 AM PST by L.A.Justice

Best Picture:

1. The Aviator

2. Sideways

3. Finding Neverland

4. Million Dollar Baby

5. Ray

Which should win: I have seen all of them...Between Sideways and The Aviator, I liked Sideways.

Which will win: The Aviator.

Best Director:

Martin Scorsese for THE AVIATOR (Miramax)

Clint Eastwood for MILLION DOLLAR BABY (Warner Bros.)

Taylor Hackford for RAY (Universal Pictures)

Alexander Payne for SIDEWAYS (Fox Searchlight)

Mike Leigh for VERA DRAKE (Fine Line Features)

Comment: I did not watch VERA DRAKE...A film, about a woman doing abortions, did not interest me. Again, my choice would be SIDEWAYS. But, THE AVIATOR will probably win.

Don Cheadle for HOTEL RWANDA (United Artists)

Johnny Depp for FINDING NEVERLAND (Miramax)

Leonardo DiCaprio for THE AVIATOR (Miramax)

Clint Eastwood for MILLION DOLLAR BABY (Warner Bros.)

Alan Alda for THE AVIATOR (Miramax)

Thomas Haden Church for SIDEWAYS (Fox Searchlight)

Jamie Foxx for COLLATERAL (Dreamworks SKG)

Morgan Freeman for MILLION DOLLAR BABY (Warner Bros.)

Clive Owen for CLOSER (Columbia Pictures)

Note: Church would be my pick. But, Freeman will win.

Best Actress in a Leading Role:

Annette Bening - BEING JULIA (Sony Pictures Classics)

Catalina Sandino Moreno - MARIA FULL OF GRACE (Fine Line Features)

Imelda Staunton - VERA DRAKE (Fine Line Features)

Hilary Swank for MILLION DOLLAR BABY (Warner Bros.)

Kate Winslet for ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND (Focus Features

Note: I have not seen BEING JULIA...Hilary Swank will win.

Cate Blanchett for THE AVIATOR (Miramax)

Laura Linney - KINSEY (Fox Searchlight Pictures)

Virginia Madsen for SIDEWAYS (Fox Searchlight)

Sophie Okonedo - HOTEL RWANDA (United Artists)

I trust you! I have seen none of these movies and probably will only see Sideways when it comes out on video.

My Oscar prediction: I won't be watching it.

Only homosexuals watch the Oscars, right?

I predict there will be a large gathering of Hollywood Liberals pretending they don't know who is getting as they glorify our enemies.

We do not need these folks and we should ignore them

My Prediction:
Tickle Me Elmo and Al Gore: Shooting up Together. A Sad documentary of two once famous heros brought down by the extreme right conspiracy theory.

As Bill Murray puts it, "Nobody really cares about Best Supporting Actor or Actress."

Mrs. LibWhacker (who's the only one in this family who follows these things) sez:

Best Picture: The Aviator
Best Director: Scorsese
Best Actor: Jamie Foxx
Best Actress: Hilary Swank
Best supporting actor: Morgan Freeman
Best supporting actress: Blanchett

Though those aren't necessarily her preferences.

What's an "Oscar"? Is it anything like Nascar?

Your Oscar Predictions:

The program's ratings will drop lower, and there will be talk about replacing them with more "reality TV".

The only way to raise the rating is to get someone to shoot an apple off Michael Moore's head using a 16" rifled battleship bore at ten paces.

I predict that my two most highly anticipated movies this year, Fantastic Four and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, will be nowhere near 'Oscar' caliber. I couldnt care less either...JFK

I predict the crappiest movie with the most liberal byline will win, as usual.
