Oscar Picks

Oscar Picks - I'll give it my best shot. We'll see how I do in March. Supporting Actress - Mo'Nique i n Precious. Unbelievable - there is one scene near the end that basically clinches the win for her. Supporting Actor - Christoph Waltz - Inglorious Basterds. Only because he's won just about every other award for this role so far. Actress - Tough one. I would have to say either Carey Mulligan in "An Education", who shot into prominence out of nowhere. Same for Gabourey Sidibe in Precious - unbelievable performance. But, Sandra Bullock has been getting a lot of attention for "Blind-Side". My pick would be Sidibe. Actor - I haven't seen it, but I hear Jeff Bridges in "Crazy Heart" is excellent - so I would go with him. Director - Kathryn Bigelow - Hurt Locker. James Cameron's ex wife just might beat him out - this was an amazing film. Picture - With 10 nominees, this is tough. I think the best movies in this category are Avatar,
