I realised that before tomorrow, I should really pick out my Oscar, uh, picks. So here they are.
Best Animated Feature
The Incredibles. Um, is there really a contest here? Shrek 2 was all very well and good and all, but I don't think it compared. The Incredibles wasn't just a good animated movie, it was a good film.
Best Original Screenplay
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Best Adapted Screenplay
Sideways
Best Supporting Actor
Morgan Freeman. He's so so overdue. However I think this might be one of the biggest toss-up categories this year. It could very well go to Thomas Haden Church or Clive Owen (although I still need to see Closer). But I think this is Morgan's year.
Best Supporting Actress
Cate Blanchett. No question. She was fantastic.
Best Actor
Jamie Foxx. Wouldb't it just be hilarious if he didn't end up winning? Ah, but not gonna happen and rightfully so. He was brilliant.
Best Actress
It's a toss-up for me between Hilary Swank and Kate Winslet. I think Hilary's gonna take it home, but Kate definitely put out one seriously Oscar-worthy performance.
Best Director
Clint Eastwood. It could go to Scorsese since voters probably think he's overdue, but Clint's my pick.
Best Picture
Million Dollar Baby. Are you surprised? I thought not. What an amazing amazing film. It was in one place and then took you in an entirely other direction. Brilliant. I adored it. I loved all the films this year, but if this doesn't win, I might have to smack someone.
