If you can't read letters than put those dusty glasses on (or use a zoom function).

If you don't understand - the "nominees" are the predicted ones - bolded ones are actual nominees, then you have a number that says how many of 5 nominees have been guessed right, and then if not all are right you have the one that got in but wasn't predicted... Understand know? :funny:


Wow, bitchy much? You're the one who stuck your post in tiny, unreadable font.

Peace,
Mike

I like my letters small and tidy. But alas, when in Rome do as the Romans do... I edited the post just for you...

Yeah, yeah, I can be bitchy sometimes. I didn't get much sleep so... :P

Well you could point out the same for Atonement, I forgot the exact date but I think the last time a GG Drama winner missed BP was like 1965? That's why I couldn't leave out it or Wild, the latter for the reason you mentioned among others (acting branch support among them). And Atonement killed the BAFTAs.

I'm going out on a limb picking against Blood, right now I just think Clayton has showed up in too many places, with its 3 acting noms and having PGA/DGA/WGA I would be shocked if it didn't get in and Blood is clearly the type of film that is usually Oscar repellent.

I think Diving Bell has a legitimate shot to miss too, it's no lock. At the end of the day it's still a foreign film with no box-office, and Atonement, Clayton, Wild, and Blood all have lots going for them to say the least. And then there's Juno... I'm not feeling it and have it lagging way behind in 7th, but I guess it's still around.


Well... not bad. I was on the right track of a low box-office and non-typical for Oscar film being snubbed, I just went with Blood and not Diving Bell. Juno really surprised me, I thought it was effed.

Well, I completely eat my crow pie for being so wrong on Into the Wild. Apparently, the Globes - an organization that I thought was becoming more and more irrelevant - is still relevant. And the SAG, which is a guild that is supposed to be relevant, wasn't.

Peace,
Mike

There was, of course, news that screeners for various films didn't get out on time to the different guilds...so I think that played a big role. I began to doubt Atonement's chances towards the end there but I was always almost 100% sure Juno would get in :)

Anyway, I should start baking for you right about now. Stop by in an hour ;)

I demand an apology for whoever that was who called people who didn't predict Into the Wild "fools"!

Hah, just kidding. But, still. You look silly now!
