Paul

There are three kinds of people in this world; those that can count, and those that can't.

[George Bellefontaine]

Here's how I think it'll go:
Best Supporting Actress: Helen Mirren
Best Supporting Actor : John Voigt
Best Actress: Sissy Spacek
Best Actor : Russel Crowe
Best Director: Ron Howard, he's due.
Best Picture: Moulin Rouge
Best Animated: Shrek, of course.

I also think Moulin Rouge will win big in other nominated categories.

I'll hold off my guesses for a little while.

Some notable ommissions from the list include:

Best Actor: Billy Bob Thorton - Monsters Ball, and the Man Who Wasn't There
Best Picture: Black Hawk Down - pretty much shut out of everything, except for Director
Best Director: Baz Luhrman, how could he missout for Moulin Rouge?
Best Animated Feature: Finaly Fantasy - This was a technical tour de force.
