Oscar Predictions

I'll also will be doing live blogging of the Oscars on Sunday Night.

Best Picture
Will: Slumdog Millionaire
Should: Slumdog Millionaire
Should've Been Nominated: The Dark Knight

It is destiny at this point. No one else stands a chance.

Actor
Will: Sean Penn, Milk
Should: Mickey Rourke, The Wrestler
Should've Been Nominated: Clint Eastwood, Gran Torino

What a year for this category. Pitt should not have been nominated though. I won't complain if Penn, Langella or Jenkins win.

Actress
Will: Kate Winslet, The Reader
Should: Meryl Streep, Doubt
Should've Been Nominated: Cate Blanchett, Ben Button

Weak year for this category. After failing 5 times, its unlikey that Winslet does not get it this year.

Supporting Actor
Will: Heath Ledger, The Dark Knight
Should: Heath Ledger, The Dark Knight
Should've Been Nominated: Emile Hirsch, Milk/Aaron Eckhart, The Dark Knight

It is a lock. I love Brolin, but he shouldn't been nominated.

Supporting Actress
Will: Viola Davis, Doubt
Should: Maria Tomei, The Wrestler
Should've Been Nominated: Hiam Abbass, The Visitor

Any of these five can win. Nate Silver says Henson will win. Cruz is the favorite. Tomei was the best. The "leaked" list says Adams wins. Davis is just a hunch though.

Director
Will: Danny Boyle, Slumdog Millionaire
Should: Danny Boyle, Slumdog Millionaire
Should've Been Nominated: Christopher Nolan, The Dark Knight

Destiny.

Original Screenplay
Will: Milk
Should: Milk
Should've Been Nominated: Forgetting Sarah Marshall

Milk needs to get something.

Adapted Screenplay
Will: Slumdog Millionaire
Should: Frost/Nixon
Should've Been Nominated: The Dark Knight

Destiny
