Here are my predictions

Best Picture

Sorry, Heath and Michelle. (I am hoping my prediction is wrong).

I had a goal to try to see as many of the Oscar contenders as possible......particularly in the acting categories..I have failed to see all  but here is my take so far..

For best picture I have only seen BBM and Crash......Crash was awful...absolutely awful..and of course I rate BBM as one of my all-time top ten

I saw Walk the Line.....both Jaoquim and Reese were great as was the movie....I haven't seen any of  the other best actress nominees but she sure seems to deserve it//I am rooting for Heath 1000% but if he doesn't get it I hope Joaquim does ...I will drag myself to see Capote later this week

I saw Constant Gardener last night..very very good movie..I can see why people are saying Rachel weisz will probably win Best supporting actress ....I loved Michelle in BBM of course but Rachel's part was more of a lead and she was great!..I am surprised that the movie did not get a Best Picture nomination and frankly am surprised that Ralph Fiennes didn't get a Best actor nod..I haven't seen Capote yet but heard that PSH is very very over rated...I want to see that for myself before Sunday

My goal is also to see Cinderella Man and Syrianna so I get to see more of Jake's competition as well ( I really want HIM to win!!!)

I am keeping my fingers crossed for BBM for all 8 categories but I really think it has to win for:

Picture
Director
Adapted Screenplay
Cinematography

Should win for:

Actor
Supporting Actor

I understand that it probably won't win for score because of "Geisha" and after seeing Constant Gardener I don't think Michelle has a chance

Just my take anyway

Best Picture 
Best Director   
Best Adapted Screenplay   
Best Actor 
Best Supporting Actor 
Best Supporting Actress 
Best Music   
Best Cinematography


there those are my predictions, i have high hopes.. lol

if BBM doesn't win best picture, all hell will brake loose.. so it will win!!
but I swear to you, if heath & jake don't win or if BBM doesn't win best picture, I will like make them all my own oscar for them and it will be like a 'peoples choice' oscar, and it will be more meaningful because it will be an award from the public you know people who actually SAW the movie, and not a group of homophobic 95 year old men.. ugh.

BBM must become the great winner of Oscar.
Title: Re: Your Oscar Prediction for BBM
Post by: Krispera on Feb 28, 2006, 12:27 PM
It will be the great winner of Oscar if it doesn't.. I will be soooooooooooooooooo mad  :-\

Oh well I voted for

Best Picture
Best Director
Best Adapted Screenplay
Best Supporting Actor

Same for Heath and Michelle, if they will, IT WILL BE SO GREAT! But the Capote guy is old so he needs his Oscar and in Supporting Actress, competition.. too much competition I can't decide in this one.
Title: Re: Your Oscar Prediction for BBM
Post by: alicat on Feb 28, 2006, 12:56 PM
I think it will win:

Best Picture
Best Director
Best Adapted Screenplay
Best Supporting Actor
Best Cinematography

I HOPE that it wins:
Best Actor
Best Supporting Actress
But I think PSH will win in the former for Capote.  Fingers crossed for Heath and Michelle though (and for Jake as his win is far from guaranteed)

For BBM:

Best Picture
Best Director
Best Adapted Screenplay
Best Cinematography

...and here I am going out on a limb:

Best Supporting Actress

That category has the least amount of political baggage going in, and Rachel Weisz just wasn't as good as Michelle (saw Constant Gardener).

Others:

Best Actor - PSH  >:( >:( >:( >:(

Best Supporting Actor - Clooney

Also, I have an idea.  I was a corporate trainer the last 10 years of my banking career.  I taught one class that involved roleplays, and I used to give "academy awards" to the best participants.  All they were were bottles of Mrs. Butterworth's syrup spray painted gold, but for some reason, they became coveted prizes!  We could keep this in mind in case any "Oscars of the Heart" are needed!

JerBear, am going to rush right out and buy a bottle of Mrs. Butterwoth's already have the gold paint, and by god my Oscar of the heart will go to BBM and everyone involved in it.  That is a great line.

Italian_Dude you just cracked this old girl up!! with this if BBM doesn't win best picture, all hell will brake loose.. so it will win!!

i REFUSE to cheat on BBM and get educated about other pics!!  I am so bad.  I have only seen good night and good luck.  Before BBM I never went to movies.  Good night I only saw because I remembered the Murrow days and am political.  Then I saw BBM in December--and since have seen it more than 30 times.  anyhow,
My predicitions:
Best Picture
Best Director
Best Adapted Screenplay
****Best Actor****
Best Supporting Actress
Best Cinematography (iffy-but hopeful)
I REALLY think Jakes deserves Best Supporting Actor, especially since I can watch him on screener DVD and you see things he does that you do not see on big screen.  In some ways he is better than Heath....but I think Clooney will win.  God I hope that creep Dillon doesn't - he gives me the willies.  ugh

Is it Sunday yet............i can't wait.......My friends boyfriend (old and sick) died today and I am thinking oh my-no memorial Sunday-how selfish-but if it is it will be between 2 and 4 or so and Acadamy Awards start at 5 here.  Hopefully, it will be on Saturday.  I know I know...but brokeaholic is a hard thing to be at this time.  I hadn't hung out with them in many years-so it wasn't like a close friend which I hope I would feel differently.  But I don't want any close people to pass.  Oh, I am sooooooooo selfish and obsessed.  geez.

BTW when is the next "Peoples choices'' award? Well, alot of young people are in the voters too  ;)!

Oh, I am sooooooooo selfish and obsessed.  geez.

lol, ask to a friend to save the oscar for you  ;D!!
Title: Re: Your Oscar Prediction for BBM
Post by: ethan on Mar 03, 2006, 11:04 PM
I think there was a pepole choices award in January. Maybe BBM will be up for the next year? I am not sure.

As for the predictions, one article I read today pointed out that if Michelle Williams wins Supproting Actress at the beginning of the Oscar, it will be BBM night. Sounds right and I hope it happens
Title: Re: Your Oscar Prediction for BBM
Post by: chameau on Mar 03, 2006, 11:12 PM
People choice awards are not serious!

They would pick up movies like Big Momma's House 2... I would rather look at the razzies awards.

I predict at least six wins  ;D

BP
BD
Cinematography
Score
Screenplay

Not sure about the acting awards although I think we'll get atleast one, hopefully more 8)

Don't they do the supporting awards early on?

Yes. If either Jake or Michelle wins it, it will be a good sign for BBM.
Title: Re: Your Oscar Prediction for BBM
Post by: Toadily on Mar 05, 2006, 02:37 PM
It would be so cool, and who knows?  I mean I remember when Roberto Benini won NO one
predicted that and it was SO deserved.  It was a great moment too when he jumped over
the chairs, he really loves his cinema.
Title: Re: Your Oscar Prediction for BBM
Post by: Miss Nice on Mar 05, 2006, 03:56 PM
1 for the music
1 to jake
perhaps one to the director

1-3 is my tip

I predict:

Best Picture
Best Director
Best Adapted Screenplay
Best Music
Best Cinematography

and I really want Jake to get the supporting one... I'm hoping votes between giamatti and clooney have split so Jake can walk away with it  ;)

I'm thinking I'll stay up just to figure out if he gets it since Supporting usually get done early on
Title: Re: Your Oscar Prediction for BBM
Post by: Miss Nice on Mar 05, 2006, 04:23 PM
Anyone who has a time schedule for the eve???? I want to know if the last hour is the best or what? Best picture etc...

Right before the Oscars started I had a bad feeling.  I had a feeling Ang would win but BBM would not get Best Picture. I had a feeling BBM's gazillion wins of other awards may have effected the voting. It's not the end of the world. The movie still got a lot of exposure. I'm so glad BBM won for the original score, I so wanted him to win.
Title: Re: Your Oscar Prediction for BBM
Post by: Toadily on Mar 06, 2006, 12:52 PM
I had a premonition too (not sure how to spell it...) and it wouldn't win, the rumors were
too vast.  I think it's a backlash to it's initial surprise success.  And Ang isn't exactly
Hollywood, I mean Higgis, the Crash guy remember wrote "Million Dollar Baby" etc.

Gustavo's win carried me in a lot ofways though. I was shocked in a good way.

I was *so* happy for Gustavo I actually cheered. I really wanted him to win. That violin rendition of the music was stunning, by the way.

All in all, I didn't do that bad in my predictions. Well, except for one of them. :(
