The Oscars - Best Picture

Prudence · 03-05-2006, 02:23 PM

I've finally seen Corpse Bride, but no other nominated movies. I have Wallace and Grommit, but haven't had time to watch it yet. Doesn't stop me from making predictions!

Performance by an actor in a leading role:
Philip Seymour Hoffman - easy call.

Performance by an actor in a supporting role:
A bit harder, but I'm going to go with Paul Giamatti. Could go to Clooney, but I think that's an outside chance.

Performance by an actress in a leading role:
Felicity Huffman. Academy loves a gender bender. Possibililty of Resse Witherspoon if they feel Walk the Line needs recognition.

Performance by an actress in a supporting role:
Toss-up between Catherine Keener and Frances McDormand, but I think Keener has the edge. No way it will go to Michelle Williams.

Wallace and Gromit really left me flat. There were some clever sequences but overall just "meh."

I thought Corpse Bride was horrible, so obviously the only choice, in my view, is Howl.

iSm, what do you mean I didn't invent it? People may have done them for yeras before me but I've applied for a patent anyway ("A method for making people care about who wins the Best Sound Editing Academy Award"). Once I get it approved (because the USPTO approves all applications without a second look, apparently), I'll be expecting the $0.50 checks to flow in from around the country.
