Best Picture Predictions:
No Country For Old Men
Into the Wild
There Will Be Blood
Atonement
Michael Clayton
I think Juno, and Diving Bell get snubbed (it's just to convienent for the Academy to reward these "smaller" films in other categories). I think the love that the Globes had for Atonement will probably be shared by enough of the Oscar voters to get it a nod. The other four seem pretty secure (at least as secure as anything can be this crazy Oscar season).

I'm just hoping Gosling and Adams liven the category up.
And Atonement managed to sneak back in.
I don't buy this Depp talk and this Blanchett double nod is disgusting.
Here's hoping Depp = Gere in '02 and Blanchett = Ziyi in '05.
