Slow night so who's psychic and will go out on a limb poll: Oscars are 3 months away from today, what will the 10 Best Picture nominees be? islander Dec 06, 17:25

All ten.... ?? C'mon.... Hurt Locker, Precious and Up in the Air are shoe ins. Up will probably be there as well. + A Serious Man and 500 Da Facto Dec 06, 17:42

And can't they also include foreing movies there? The White Ribbon, The Maid and Coco Before Chanel. They'll pass on Antichrist, though. {nm} Facto Dec 06, 17:43

in theory they can (Life is Beautiful) but they won't. {nm} mickpix Dec 06, 17:47

von Trier and Haneke and Fontaine at the Oscars - that would be fab hmm Dec 06, 17:47

That would be hilarious. If cool. {nm} dsbman Dec 06, 18:47

Hurt Locker was like two years ago in reality hmm Dec 06, 17:48

i'll go all 10: a serious man, away we go, crazy heart, dr. parnassus, invictus, its complicated, nine, precious, the road, up in the air {nm} islander Dec 06, 17:51

Why on earth would they include Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus... ??? {nm} Facto Dec 06, 17:54

gilliams films have had oscar success in past (maybe not best pic) but lots of acting noms, also talent involved depp, law ledger all academ islander Dec 06, 17:57

I guess there's always that factor that if they truly don't understand it, they nominate it - so they won't have to answer hard Facto Dec 06, 18:01

if theyre smoking enough crack to include away we go, why not include a tgill flick. {nm} adrenalin112 Dec 06, 18:00

i included away we go because sam mendes is like crack to oscars: his 4 films have 17 noms and 6 wins {nm} islander Dec 06, 18:02

I saw that, and I see no reason why they'd include Away We Go... Except for its being perhaps Sideways-ish and Oscar-ish in texture.. {nm} Facto Dec 06, 18:04

Here ya go... secretstalker Dec 06, 17:51

I'm also thinking Inglorious Basterds may very well get there, and I'm with you on An Education (even if I haven't seen it). Add those two Facto Dec 06, 17:56

(500) Days of Summer, Avatar, The Hurt Locker, Invictus, It's Complicated, Nine, Precious, Star Trek, Up & Up in the Air {nm} joeoftexas Dec 06, 17:51

People keep assuming that the Academy won't just put UP in the Animated Feature category they created to honor animation. secretstalker Dec 06, 17:52

I know... what's up with that ? :) {nm} joeoftexas Dec 06, 17:55

With ten nominees this year, the door could open to some surprises. I'm guessing the nominees will be LonePirate Dec 06, 17:51

A Single Man.... ? I mulled it over, but no.. Too much style over substance, plus it's his first feature film. Firth will be nominated, tho' {nm} Facto Dec 06, 17:59

upair, hurtlocker, invic, trek, bldsd, inglor, d9, lvbon, avatar, (worlds greatest dad deserves the last one, but wont get it) {nm} adrenalin112 Dec 06, 17:56

I think the chosen 10 will be.... dsbman Dec 06, 18:45

Alright here's mine. Buzz Dec 06, 18:58

My 10: Hurt Locker, Avatar, Invictus, Up, Up In The Air, 500 Days of Summer, An Education, Inglourious Basterds, Precious, The Blind Side {nm} Mattrek Dec 06, 22:44

I think it will be: Avatar, An Education, Hurt Locker, Inglourious Basterds, Invictus, Lovely Bones, Nine, Precious, Up, Up in the Air. {nm} helmetz Dec 06, 22:09

My 10: Hurt Locker, Avatar, Invictus, Up, Up In The Air, 500 Days of Summer, An Education, Inglourious Basterds, Precious, The Blind Side {nm} Mattrek Dec 06, 22:44

Just curious why so many put in Avatar, looks like garbage on the commercials. can anyone clue me in? {nm} TheSureThing Dec 07, 05:40

Might have something to do with the 11 Oscars Cameron's last film won...just a hunch. {nm} RoBoGuru Dec 07, 09:35
