BEST PICTURE
Nominees: Black Swan, The Fighter, Inception, The Kids Are All Right, The King's Speech, 127 Hours, The Social Network, Toy Story 3, True Grit, Winter's Bone
Prediction: The King's Speech
Upset: The Social Network
My pick(s): Inception was undoubtedly my favorite 2010 movie. The Social Network is a close second and certainly was the most technically well-crafted film across the board. The directing, writing, acting, music, everything worked together so well. Toy Story 3 was pretty darn good, too, if I do say so myself.
BEST DIRECTOR
Nominees: Darren Aronofsky (Black Swan), Coen Bros. (True Grit), David Fincher (The Social Network), Tom Hooper (The King's Speech), David O. Russell (The Fighter)
Prediction: David Fincher, The Social Network
Upset: Tom Hooper, The King's Speech OR Darren Aronofsky, Black Swan
My pick(s): Out of the nominees, David Fincher, quite easily. The not-nominated Christopher Nolan (Inception) also did a fabulous job.
BEST ACTOR
Nominees: Javier Bardem (Biutiful), Jeff Bridges (True Grit), Jesse Eisenberg (The Social Network), Colin Firth (The King's Speech), James Franco (127 Hours)
Prediction: Colin Firth, The King's Speech
Upset: Javier Bardem, Biutiful
My pick(s): Jesse Eisenberg gave my favorite performance, but Colin Firth was quite good as well.
BEST ACTRESS
Nominees: Annette Bening (The Kids Are All Right), Nicole Kidman (Rabbit Hole), Jennifer Lawrence (Winter's Bone), Natalie Portman (Black Swan), Michelle Williams (Blue Valentine)
Prediction: Natalie Portman, Black Swan
Upset: Annette Bening, The Kids Are All Right
My pick(s): Uh... I'm so behind with performances from the ladies this year. Not only have I seen none of these, I haven't really seen any non-nominees worth mentioning.
BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR
Nominees: Christian Bale (The Fighter), John Hawkes (Winter's Bone), Jeremy Renner (The Town), Mark Ruffalo (The Kids Are All Right), Geoffrey Rush (The King's Speech)
Prediction: Christian Bale, The Fighter
Upset: Geoffrey Rush, The King's Speech -- This could very well happen
My pick(s): Andrew Garfield (The Social Network) wasn't nominated, so I'm going to go with Geoffrey Rush, who was great.
BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS
Nominees: Amy Adams (The Fighter), Helena Bonham Carter (The King's Speech), Melissa Leo (The Fighter), Hailee Steinfeld (True Grit), Jacki Weaver (Animal Kingdom)
Prediction: Jacki Weaver, Animal Kingdom
Upset: Well... Jacki Weaver would be an upset. The favorites are Melissa Leo and Hailee Steinfeld.
My pick(s): Again, I'm behind with these performances. I've seen Steinfeld, but she shouldn't win. She was the lead and simply good, not great.
The rest are just predictions.
