The Skinny!	More forgettable films about queens, creepy beauty pageants, and crazy dictators! Sprinkle in some anti-war propaganda — that's a show!
Sup Actress:	It's a rather thin field, I didn't see Dreamgirls, but the buzz tells me it's Jennifer Hudson in a runaway. Oh, I pay attention to the buzz! CORRECT!
Sup Actor:	C'mon, Eddie Murphy? Let's be serious. And Arkin was good, but better in Slums of Beverly Hills. Wahlberg will win with his over-the-top portrayal. WRONG!
Actress:	Everyone says Mirren nailed it in this snorefest about the Queen of England. I will never see this movie. So I gotta go with the chalk here. CORRECT!
Actor:	Forest Whitaker plays a bad good guy in The Shield, which I love. I can imagine he's even better playing a bad bad guy (Idi Amin). Lock it up! CORRECT!
Director:	Scorsese's great films were passed over (Raging Bull, Goodfellas, Gangs of NY). Here he remakes a Chinese film and wins. Marty say: Go figure. CORRECT!
Picture:	Rule #1: Comedies never win. Rule #2: In a very weak year, Rule #1 doesn't apply. It's Little Miss Sunshine. Sorta Vacation meets Slums of Beverly Hills. WRONG!
