Martin Scorsese for THE AVIATOR (Miramax)
Clint Eastwood for MILLION DOLLAR BABY (Warner Bros.)
Taylor Hackford for RAY (Universal Pictures)
Alexander Payne for SIDEWAYS (Fox Searchlight)

Oscar? Wasn't he in the Odd Couple?
Who cares ?
My Prediction:
Many, many whacko liberals will be attending.
My Oscar prediction: I won't be watching it.
Only homosexuals watch the Oscars, right?
My Prediction is that I Don't Care.
We do not need these folks and we should ignore them
My Prediction:
Tickle Me Elmo and Al Gore: Shooting up Together. A Sad documentary of two once famous heros brought down by the extreme right conspiracy theory.
Best Actor: Ron Jeremy
As Bill Murray puts it, "Nobody really cares about Best Supporting Actor or Actress."
Best Picture: The Aviator
Best Director: Scorsese
Best Actor: Jamie Foxx
Best Actress: Hilary Swank

Best supporting actress: Blanchett
Though those aren't necessarily her preferences.
What's an "Oscar"? Is it anything like Nascar?
I predict that my two most highly anticipated movies this year, Fantastic Four and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, will be nowhere near 'Oscar' caliber. I couldnt care less either...JFK
I predict the crappiest movie with the most liberal byline will win, as usual.
I predict Mel Gibson is laughing all the way to the bank ...
I predict that I won't watch.
