--of sneaking into the Best Picture ten, in your opinion? However slim the chance.

The poll is based on the presumption these eleven films are -strong- contenders:

Black Swan
The Fighter
Inception
The Kids Are All Right
The King's Speech
127 Hours
The Social Network
The Town
Toy Story 3
True Grit
Winter's Bone

I'll go with Shutter Island. There's a lot more passion for it in AMPA like peoples than critics. And it's one of those films where the people involved have a lot of friends.

With a score of 79 at BFCA and 6.2 average at RT, I don't see The Way Back making much wave. Blue Valentine looks to be the strongest possibility from reviews point of view, but it may be entering the race too late. Maybe it could be a different film altogether like The Ghost Writer, Animal Kingdom, or Waiting for Superman.

You're fooling yourself if you think The Way Back has any sort of shot :P.

You definitely should have included The Ghost Writer.
