Good stuff.

No guts, no glory and all that, but one I really couldn't see happening is Amy Adams. Rachel Weisz is the favorite, and I think if someone steals it from her, it'll be Michelle Williams.

Is it just me, or is Best Song tough to predict this year? Yours is not the one I'd pick, but really I'm just stabbing in the dark. Ditto for those damn shorts.

Supporting actress is the most likely category in history for an upset, and it usually goes to a scene-stealing comedic performance.

I think the fact that she got nominated proves that anyone who sees her in the film loves her(cuz how many people saw it to nominate her?). Plus, it was a true case of a performance capturing enough attention to get itself a nom. No support at all for the rest of the film.

It's not as unlikely as it seems.

Okay, I was wrong.

Is it OK for you?

AAA v. 2.003/05/2006

Instead of a virtual Crash shutout, Crash stole Best Picture.

The Oscars suck. Hard.

See it positive. Your pick for "Best Song" was excellent.
