My biggest question: Will anyone win a Best Actress award this season other than Helen Mirren? Stay tuned

Go Jennifer Hudson and Catherine O'Hara.

For Your Consideration was just OK, but O'Hara was superb. She's so underappreciated, I would love to see her get nominated. Especially considering the movie's subject matter, hah

Pan's Labyrinth won another one; definitely a three-way race in foreign film.

Babel and Little Miss Sunshine show up again in the top 10 list, while The Departed and Dreamgrils are snubbed. First appearance by Little Children.

I'm surprised by the complete lack of Children of Men in ANY of these Top 10 lists.

Has the Departed shutout something to do with the Boston - New York rivalry?

I'd love to see O'Hara nominated even if I haven't seen the film yet ;)


Very interesting top 10, btw. :smile:

It really, really wasn't.

Look like we could be looking at a total sweep by Mirren. Hoffman won everything except for NY and Las Vegas last year, and I don't see Mirren losing NY tomorrow.

Some goofy small group will throw Cruz a bone. Mark my words.

But other than that, Mirren can not be stopped. Despite the craziness in that other thread.

But Hoffman didn't win the Actress last year, so does that mean Streep still has a shot, particularly if she wins SAG over Mirren?

The Queen sweeps up a few more accolades, they'll be a decent concolation prize for it since it'll be this years GNGL/Capote at the oscars padding out the big awards catagories.

I mean Hoffman for Capote, not Huffman for Transamerica. Witherspoon won the majority of critic awards for Best Actress. I was basically saying Mirren's train is pretty much as unstoppable as Hoffman in Capote, if not more so since Ledger was consistently the runner-up in Best Actor award last year while the runner-up position in Best Actress this year is getting divided among a few actresses so far. When Sissy Spacek lost in 2001 after dominating the precursors, at least Berry already emerged as a strong opposition early on as she won NBR. There is really no suspense this time.
