BEST PICTURE
1. The Road (why not?)
2. Changeling
3. Doubt
4. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (I really don't think it'll be a hit, but I have no idea what else to put)
5. The Dark Knight (it might just be too big to ignore. Let's hope...)
BEST DIRECTOR
1. David Fincher - The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (I don't think it'll happen, but meh)
2. John Hillcoat - The Road
3. Clint Eastwood - The Exchange
4. Edward Zwick - Defiance
5. Mike Leigh - Happy-Go-Lucky (they love him)
BEST ACTOR
1. Viggo Mortensen - The Road
2. Frank Langella - Frost/Nixon
3. Benicio del Toro - Guerilla
4. Leonardo DiCaprio - Revolutionary Road
5. Brad Pitt - The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

2. Angelina Jolie - Changeling
3. Sally Hawkins - Happy-Go-Lucky (this film is my muse, in case you haven't noticed)

BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR
1. Heath Ledger - The Dark Knight
2. Liev Schreiber - Defiance
3. Philip Seymour Hoffman - Doubt (I still think this is Lead, but I'm not positive)
4. Kodi Smit-McPhee - The Road
5. Robert Downey, Jr. - The Soloist (this is a big year for him. A nomination would only be appropriate.)
BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS
1. Viola Davis - Doubt
2. Taraji P. Henson - The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (it kills me to predict a film I don't even think will do well in so many places, but I can't find any other worthy contenders)
3. Frances McDormand - Burn After Reading
4. Penelope Cruz - Vicky Cristina Barcelona
5. Samantha Morton - Synecdoche, New York
BEST ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY
1. WALL-E (I have no idea)

BEST ADAPTED SCREENPLAY
1. Doubt
2. The Road
3. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

So I pretty much have no idea, but it's still very early. Be gentle.

I'm just happy we're on the same page about The Road's potential.
Good predictions, but I think Benicio Del Toro isn't in this race because the film hasn't distributor yet and I saw a lot of problems:
-Language barrier
-Two or only one film?
-Very mixed reviews from Cannes beside the raves of Del Toro's performance...
-Sean Penn, Liam Neeson and Jamie Foxx in the corner
The same goes to samantha Morton
