Thoughts on the Oscar Race so far...

Well, this year is pretty weak so far. I'm not sure I'm enjoying it as much as I liked last year. Last year was so packed and interesting and hard to decide on. This one looks like there's gonna be a lot of filler nominations. Anyways, here are my thoughts on the race so far:

-Atonement will NOT win Best Picture, but its very unclear to state the front runner now.

-Sweeney Todd is being over hyped. Most probably this years Dreamgirls.

-Hairspray will get a lot of nominations.

-John Travolta will get nominated for his turn as Edna Turnblad.

-Amy Adams will get nominated for Enchanted.

-Juno won't be as big as everyone says it'll be.

-Angelina will not get nominated for A Mighty Heart.

-Gone Baby Gone will be forgotten for a Best Picture nod, unless it starts campaigning more...now.

-"That's How You Know" will get nominated for Best Song.

-Jon Stuart will be a bad host.

-The Assignation of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford will be big.

-Cate Blancett will win something this year.

-In the Valley of Elliah will make a surprise attack.

-300 is too big to ignore.

-American Gangster will not win Best Picture.

-Kiera won't get nominated.

-Atonement will win Best Adapted Screenplay.

-Knocked Up will be shut out like some really good recent comedies like Mean Girls and The 40-Year-Old Virgin.
