I would love nothing more than to see Anamaria Marinca nominated, but the chances of it happening are miniscule.

I agree Lewis.
It would be great Clayton if Into The Wild upset No Country at the Oscars, wow.

RC said...

do you think atonement still has a chance?

and no way on anamaria...i'd love to see Amy Adams somehow slip in here.

Why Johnny Depp so high at number, that's suprising?

I think Atonement still has a bit of a chance, Amy Adams has the tiniest chance and Johnny Depp is not completely off the radar either.

i think you just copied Kris Tapley, he is such a good predictor and you aren't so you copied him to appear different. Stop acting superior, you are nothing man.

where does it say in the post that I'm superior? oh just checking. If you don't like what you're reading, than don't read it. Get off my page.

And next time you want to say something, don't remain anonymous.

FYI: Do you remember Alan Arkin winning the Oscar last year, I think I called that back in September, just so you know. But then again, I suck at predictions and Kris Tapley is my foundation. Jackass!

Go Clay!
Glad you got that cleared up, people man, people can be so short minded, such sad little things. I love your predictions, and I stand by your superiority all they way :)
