So, despite two movies scoring more than 10 nods, it looks like no film might win more than three Oscars. Could it go like this? Argo - Picture, Adapted Screenplay, Editing Lincoln - Director, Actor, Supporting Actor Skyfall - Song, Cinematography, Sound Editing Life of Pi - Score, Visual Effects, Sound Mixing Les Misérables - Supporting Actress, Art Direction Amour - Foreign Film The Hobbit - Makeup Silver Linings Playbook - Actress Django - Original Screenplay Anna Karenina- Costume Design Seven out of the nine BP nominees winning at least one Oscar...four films winning three Oscars each. That#d be a total 2005 repeat - Crash, Brokeback Mountain, King Kong and Memoirs of a Geisha also winning three each with Crash/BBM splitting BP/BD. Hell, I could see a scenario in which Skyfall would walk away with most wins... On the other hand, the Academy might despite to finally honor Alexandre Desplat - for one of his least remarkable scores - and give Argo an Oscar for its Score as well. |

David wrote: I hope Anna Karenina wins two. I don't know what for, though. It might win none if the Academy likes Les Mis. I am thinking Costume design, but for Art Direction they might prefer a film bigger in scale. In the other categories, the competition is way too harsh. |

I know it will not win score, but I believe it has a fighting chance for art direction and a very strong chance to win costume design. |

You prefer one movie taking all instead of rewarding a lot of movies? Interesting. Depending on the year/movie, I could go either way. |

I hated the year Master and Commander lost so many awards it richly deserved because it was their last chance to honor The Lord of the Rings. |

Also because in most tech categories ROTK was superior and in BP/BD, even if ROTK had not been there, Mystic River would have been the frontrunner. |

Like the last four years in a row, one film walked away with everything. Hurt Locker, King's Speech, Slumdog, The Artist, they all won several awards and each had way too many nominations. We haven't had a BP 3 award winner in YEARS |

I find these years with the biggest winner taking 4-5 awards, boring. I want more major sweeps. |

But I wouldn't want that EVERY year. I like it when it happens, though. |

To Algren, Inglourious Basterds should have been one of those movies. But that turned out to be the year to reward Bigelow, not Tarantino. |

Hmm, I was rooting for Inglourious Basterds, Up in the Air and Avatar that year, in all different categories. But yeah, I would have liked it if Tarantino got more recognition than one award. |
