Well, seeing as how we're down to the last week before the Oscars, I thought I would put forth a few predictions.
Best Picture: people are saying Gladiator is going to win, but I'm holding out for either Crouching Tiger or Traffic
Best Director: Ang Lee
Best Actor: hopefully Ed Harris
Best Actress: I'm taping the show just so I can have a record of Julia Roberts's reaction if and when she loses. Ellen Burstyn would get my vote for Requiem.
Best Visual Effects: something tells me The Perfect Storm
Best Supporting Actor: hopefully Willem Dafoe
Best Supporting Actress: Gee, I wish I had seen those movies
Best Original Score: Hans Zimmer
And if they give ANYTHING to that hideous Grinch movie (which had the ugliest makeup and art direction I have ever seen in my life), I will kill something.
What about rejected and it nomination for best short, a film with a bleeding anus nominated for an oscar, yes indeedy, it gets my vote
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon & Gladiator are my picks for this year. Also lets not forget The Patriot with Mel Gibson.
CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON
GLADIATOR
THE PATRIOT
Make it a politicion, or a used car saleman...no jury in the world would convict.
The Patriot isn't up for best picture Scott. Also, I feel Gladiator was OK but not Oscar worthy. That's just my two cents. I hope Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon .
