[Jedi Master Carr]

Good list CMJ have to see how close you are :)

[CMJ]

Well, I'm going by stuff I hear. I'm sure I'll be way off in some categories and nail others. I'm usually better at predicting winners than films that get nominated. :)

[Jedi Master Carr]

Hey I am sure you could predict them better than me :)

[sirdizzy]

i think leo will get a nomination for best actor in catch me if you can because they will not nominate it for best picture


he will lose of course

[CMJ]

Leo getting a nomination would be a huge shock. I wouldn't consider him to be among the top 8 contenders. If the stars align he could sneak in, but I doubt it.

He has about as much chance as 'Road to Perdition' of sneaking into the Best Picture race(a film I list surrently at 9th most likely).

[Jedieb]

When are they being announced?

[CMJ]

Looking back I did pretty well...:D
