    Actor: Jeremy Renner
    Actress: Sandra Bullock
    Supporting Actor: Woody Harrelson
    Supporting Actress: Anna Kendrick

    Visual Effects: Avatar
    Film Editing: Avatar

    What are yours?

    You must have been reading my mind, Tex. That list is pretty much how I see it, too, but with one exception. I own Hurt Locker and know how good Renner is, and even though I've only seen a few scenes from Crazy Heart, I just have this gut feeling that Jeff Bridges may get best actor

      My wife & I are going to an Oscar party tonight.
      Everyone gets a ballot and throws $10 into the pot.

      My wife’s picks:
      Movie: Avatar
      Actor: Jeff Bridges
      Actress: Sandra Bullock
      Supporting Actor: Christoph Waltz
      Supporting Actress: Mo’nique
      Foreign Film: The White Ribbon
      Song: Loin de Paname’
      Tie Breaker – Time that credits begin to roll: 11:33


      My Picks:
      Movie: Hurt Locker
      Actor: Jeremy Renner
      Actress: Sandra Bullock
      Supporting Actor: Christopher Plummer
      Supporting Actress: Mo’nique
      Foreign Film: Ajami
      Song: The Weary Kind
      Tie Breaker – Time that credits begin to roll: 11:27

      These are our predictions, not necessarily our actual favorites.

        Didn't catch all of it, but I did see that Kathryn Bigelow got director, Hurt Locker got best picture and Sandra Bullock got best actress.

        I'll see if I can find a comprehensive list. Back shortly....

            And I pretty much agree with the results. I did think that Avatar would take more Oscars, though.
