2007 Predictions: The First Batch (Best Supporting Actor/Actress, Best Original/Adapted Screenplay)

I'm only going to do analaysises for the top 4 categories for most of the early predix, because they're really a bottleneck to write in these categories because they're so unclear.

BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR
Philip Seymour Hoffman-Charlie Wilson's War
Clive Owen-The Golden Age
Alan Rickman-Sweeney Todd
Russell Crowe-American Gangster
Michael Peña-Lions for Lambs

BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS
Toni Collette-Evening
Cheryl Hines-Waitress
Claire Danes-Evening
Miranda Richardson-Spinning Into Butter
Julia Roberts-Charlie Wilson's War (this is supporting, right?)

BEST ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY
Waitress
Snow Cake
Lions for Lambs
The Golden Age
Eastern Promises

BEST ADAPTED SCREENPLAY
Sweeney Todd
The Other Boleyn Girl
American Gangster
Charlie Wilson's War
The Kite Runner

Well, that completes the first batch. New predix will be posted...soon, I guess. And have you noticed how slow most sites are publishing their predix? Probably because there isn't a clean cut frontrunner, i.e. Memoirs of a Geshia or Dreamgirls.
