At this point, in terms of the Foreign Language category, the frontrunner winning would be surprising.  They always seem to choose a lesser-known title which hasn't been nearly as acclaimed or seen abroad.

 Re: Official 2010 Academy Awards Discussion
The screening attendance requirement really makes the category unpredictable. First it reduces the number of total votes drastically, and then the more emotional films tend to have an advantage under that setting.

 Re: Official 2010 Academy Awards Discussion
Pfeiffer - nice dress Farmiga - ugly dress Farrell - looking weird Robbins - same ole self Moore - decent dress
The performance of a lifetime was the Dude..."hey" I forgot Clooney was nominated as a director.
So why don't they do this for the supporting performances?

Morgan Freeman is not a good-looking man.

 Re: Official 2010 Academy Awards Discussion
I know it won't happen, but an upset here would be so interesting. Renner or Clooney seem vaguely possible.
