• Oscar Eve

  Updated with srikeouts.  Only 3 wrong, not too bad. (Little Jaden Smith doesn’t count, but he sure is adorable.)

  

  2:00 AM – Props to Eric for another great post and for this cool graphic.  I’m too tired to list who I think all the nominees will be, but I will reveal a few of my picks.  I’ll be up early for the nominations as I’m picking Tyson up at the airport.  I imagine a lot of people in West Hollywood are up tonight!  Here are my favorites to win, not that they necessarily will.  I still have some real work to finish   and it’s late.  If anybody’s up, feel free to call

  Best Actor: I loved Will Smith’s performance, though I think Leonardo may be hard to beat with two roles, and of course the sentimental favorite is Peter O’Toole.  Sasha Baron Cohen might be the wildcard.  I haven’t seen Half Nelson yet, damnit!  It’s anyone’s guess.

  Best Actress:  Helen Mirren, no contest

  Best Supporting Actress:  Jennifer Hudson

  Best Supporting Actor:  It might be Eddie Murphy’s year, but they could go with Nicholson.  I haven’t seen Half Nelson yet, damnit!  (How about props for Jaden Smith? )

  Best Picture:  For my money was Babel, with Dreamgirls a close second.

  Best Song:  Hopefully “Listen”, but maybe I Love You I Do has a chance? I tend to wear them both out on my hard drive!

  Best Director:  Eastwood by a hair, sorry Bill C.

  Foreign Language Film:  I’m going with Volver.  Haven’t seen Pan’s.

  More later….back to work! –Carey
