Eulynn sent me an email, reminding me that it's time for Oscar predictions.
As per my usual methods, I've seen very few of the movies involved. (To put this into a positive light, I could say that I am untainted by emotional attachments to the films.) So I don't know if I can even come up with a "Should win" list.
As usual, I reserve the right to change my picks up until the show starts.
Best picture - This is, as usual, the toughest choice. I just can't make up my mind. This may be one of my last minute desperation decisions.
Best actor - Easy. I had this pick made months ago: Forest Whitaker.
Best actress - Second year in a row of breaking the "Always pick Judi Dench" rule: Helen Mirren.
Supporting actor - I'll take Eddie Murphy.
Supporting actress - Jennifer Hudson.
Director - I'm really struggling over whether to choose Clint Eastwood or Martin Scorsese. I'm currently leaning towards Scorsese, but it's a really tough call. Underestimating Eastwood's popularity has burned me before, but they may also want to finally give Scorsese his due.
Adapted screenplay - The Departed.
Original screenplay - I'm still trying to choose between Babel, Little Miss Sunshine, and The Queen.
Animated feature - Cars.
Documentary feature - An Inconvenient Truth.
Bonus prediction: Al Gore is NOT running for president.
