Remember last year's omission of Cold Mountain for the Best Picture nomination? Well, if that wasn't a surprise then I don't know what is. What do you think will be the biggest surprises this time around? Oh and try to stay somewhat realistic (i.e. don't say "The Aviator will be snubbed", heh). I think the biggest possible surprise would be if David Carradine AND Uma Thurman were nominated for Kill Bill Vol. 2 Considering the rather weak Best Actress category (with probably only Swank and Benning being locks at this point, maybe Staunton) and the fact that beyond Church, Freeman and Owen the Best Supporting Catgory is pretty much open, I think it is certainly possible. What do you think will be the big surprises? |

I not sure, how do you classify a big surprise and how would that compare to the already existing, I guess that is redundant in a Lecter thread, Your OUTRAGEOUS OSCAR Predictions? |

I mean City of God made IMDB's TOP 25 films, I think. |

Actually, at this point, I think Closer being nominated for Best Picture will be a surprise. At least to me, anyway. Hopefully Best Actress will give a few surprises, like Julie Delpy or Julia Roberts. |

Closer being nominated would certainly be a huge surprise at this point. However, after the BFCA list, I think pretty much all hope is lost for it. |

I get this feeling that Johnny Depp won't be nominated for best actor. There just seems to be so much talent in that category and his performance is least deserving. A surprise for me would be to see Kill Bill Volume 2 nominated for anything, because at this point it doesn't seem to be factoring in on any of the races. Even a sound or sound editing nomination would surprise me. |

After SAG and WGA noms, Cheadle, screenplay and s. actress wouldn't be a surprise really. Even Best Picture wouldn't be a surprise. Are you talking about all of these awards together? Terry George being nominated would be a surprise though considering that everyone I talked to seems to think that if there is any weakness in the film it comes from some of the direction. |

Yes, all together 
That'd be a MAJOR surprise since Terry George looks really unlikely to receive a nom as of now. I'd even say that Yimou has a better shot. |

I wouldn't be surprised at all if Hotel Rwanda gets all those noms. If you watched Globe closely, Hotel Rwanda got the biggest applause by far each time it was mentioned. The audience, which consists of many academy members (actors/actresses, directors, etc.), loves it. As long as there are enough voters who saw the film, and I think there are considering Hotel Rwanda had over 25 screenings, far more than The Aviator and Million Dollar Baby had, it has an excellent chance. |
