  • I know that the liklihood that I will get a 100% is extremely slim, but I would rather take risks and predict the surprises. I know that it's highly unlikely for Munich to get a Best Picture nomination without a single other major nom, but I could see it happening. I also know that Terrance Howard is unlikely to go home empty-handed, and that Ron Howard has minimal chances of getting the nom, but the chance is there.
