Pretty much. But since the options are there, I chose Life of Pi as it's my 3rd favourite movie of 2012.

I haven't seen Les Miz yet, but I have to go with Beasts or Zero Dark Thirty. I'd also be happy with Silver Linings and Life of Pi.

If Django Unchained won it would be pretty awesome. I'd love to see Spike Lee's face.

My head says Lincoln but my heart says Silver Linings Playbook.

I love both of them, though. Pretty much all of the nominees are great.

All of them except for Silver Linings and Les Miserables would make great BP winners in my book.

The film that -should- win is Cloud Atlas - - unfortunately it was so far ahead of the curve, it never had a chance. :(
