BEST PICTURE - Lost in Translation
While I would like to see RotK win, I think Sofia will bag it.
BEST ACTOR - Bill Murray, Lost in Translation
Same here, Bill Murray was great, and while I don't think it's primarily why he'll get the award, he deserves it.
BEST ACTRESS - Diane Keaton, Something's Gotta Give
Going with the elder thing here - Theron is good, but Keaton is older.
BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR - Tim Robbins, Mystic River
No real competition here, IMO.
BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS - Renee Zellweger, Cold Mountain
Not here either, Renee is the darling of Hollywood right now.
BEST DIRECTOR - Sofia Coppola, Lost in Translation
Again, I think Sofia will bag best director, and hence best picture.
BEST FOREIGN FILM - The Twilight Samurai, Japan
Went with a guess here.
BEST ADAPTED SCREENPLAY - Fran Walsh, Philippa Boyens and Peter Jackson, The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
This is the big guess... it could be anyone's game here. I went with RotK solely because I think Lost in Translation will get best picture, and this will be the consolation.
BEST ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY - Sofia Coppola, Lost in Translation
No doubt here.
BEST ANIMATED FEATURE FILM - Brother Bear
Finding Nemo was great, but this did pretty well so far.
BEST ART DIRECTION - The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
Nothing to see here...
BEST CINEMATOGRAPHY - Cold Mountain
Again, another pity win here, especially since it got snubbed (and rightly so).
BEST SOUND MIXING - Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl
BEST SOUND EDITING - Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl
I went with Pirates because they'll be given something too, and the sound was pretty good.
BEST ORIGINAL SCORE - The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, Howard Shore
BEST ORIGINAL SONG - "Into the West" from The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, Fran Walsh, Howard Shore and Annie Lennox
These won't be a contest.
BEST COSTUME - The Last Samurai
Eh, who knows?
BEST DOCUMENTARY FEATURE - Capturing the Friedmans
BEST DOCUMENTARY (SHORT SUBJECT) - Chernobyl Heart
Guessed.
BEST FILM EDITING - The Lord of the Rings: The Return of The King
Eh, why not. I think it'll win in the effects, why not here too?
BEST MAKEUP - Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl
Another why not. I thought the costumes were pretty good too, but it wasn't nominated.
BEST ANIMATED SHORT FILM - Destino
BEST LIVE ACTION SHORT FILM - Two Soldiers
Guessed.
VISUAL EFFECTS - The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
Because it'll be fashionable.
