Post DGA Predictions
They are a bit further away but I think with ten PGA nominees and ten BP nominees at the Oscars, DGA will become quite important in terms of foreshadowing potential BP winners.

I'm thinking:

James Cameron (Avatar)
Kathryn Bigelow (The Hurt Locker)
Jason Reitman (Up in the Air)
Clint Eastwood (Invictus)
Ethan and Joel Coen (A Serious Man)

So you think there will be a perfect PGA/DGA match? I'm doubtful of The Hangover receiving a DGA nom.

Nine, An Education, Where the Wild Things, and (500) Days of Summer should all have better chances of getting in than The Hangover in getting in DGA.

Bigelow
Cameron
Tarantino
Reitman

Should all get in. Seems like the strongest 4 films right now. After that who knows but I'll give it to Daniels. Precious seems like it'd be the 5th BP nominee if there were still 5.

Tarantino is not a member of the DGA. That will hurt him.

Didn't hurt him in '94, when he was nominated for Pulp Fiction.

I'd argue that despite all the acclaim Basterds is not QUITE as well-liked as PF.
