Ok, last minute Oscar predictions! I did catch There Will Be Blood this weekend...I give it an A!

Here goes...

Best Actor: Daniel Day Lewis
Ladies and gentlemen, this year's Oscar gimme.

Supporting Actor: Javier Bardem
The best film villain since Hannibal Lecter.

Best Actress: Cate Blanchett
I have no idea here.

Supporting Actress: Tilda Swinton
I thought she was great in Michael Clayton. Ronan from Atonement is worth mention too.

Best Animated Film: Persepolis
I really wanted to see this, but didn't have time. I would have had to go to NY to find it anyway.

Art Direction: There Will Be Blood

Cinematography: Atonement

Costume Design: Atonement

Directing: There Will Be Blood

Best Documentary: No End in Sight

Documentary Short: La Corona

Film Editing: There Will Be Blood

Foreign Language Film: 12

Makeup: Pirates of the Carribean

Original Score: Atonement

Original Song: August Rush

Animated Short: Peter and the Wolf

Live Action Short: At Night

Sound Editing: The Bourne Ultimatum

Sound Mixing: Transformers
Apparently this guy has been nominated like 20 times and never won.

Visual Effects: Transformers

Adapted Screenplay: No Country for Old Men

Original Screenplay: Juno
You have to think they'll give it something, right?

Best Picture: No Country for Old Men
I think There Will Be Blood might have been better, but I liked No Country more. And I think that's how the voters will go too. However, something in the back of my head keeps saying that if there ever was a year that they give it to a move like Juno, then this would be it.
Comments:
