For the past few weeks, I've been making my usual effort to watch the most of the movies that have been nominated this year. Yeah, I know, I'm a sheep. But gladly so.
For reference, I've watched the following movies (in no particular order): Doubt, The Dark Knight, Changeling, The Reader, Revolutionary Road, The Wrestler, Milk, Benjamin Button, Slumdog Millionaire, Tropic Thunder, WALL-E, Kung-Fu Panda, Happy-Go-Lucky and, of course, a few others non-nominated movies.
So, without further ado, here are my predictions:
My hunch: Mickey Rourke FAIL
My hunch: Heath Ledger EPIC WIN!! (see my review of the Black Knight)
Winner: Heath LedgerMy hunch: Kate Winslet FTW! (best acceptance speech of the evening)
Winner: Kate WinsletMy hunch: Viola Davis FAIL
My hunch: WALL-E FTW!
Winner: WALL-EMy hunch: Changeling FAIL
My hunch: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button FAIL
My hunch: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button FAIL
My hunch: Slumdog Millionaire FTW!
Winner: Simon Beaufoy (Slumdog Millionaire)My hunch: WALL-E FAIL
My hunch: Slumdog Millionaire FTW!
Winner: Slumdog Millionaire
I couldn't leave out the best movie I've watched in recent years, which, IMHO, deserved the Best Picture award this year: SEVEN POUNDS!!!
What do you think? Any comments? :)
