And now, you've been waiting for it...Jason's Oscar predictions. For those not in the know why he wrote this, the intro from the article
Another year, another batch of Academy Awards...and to go along with them, my heavily researched predictions. For those who donÂ’t know, these little statues mean a great deal to me. Some people watch the Super Bowl, others the World Series or U.S. Open or PGA Tour, or what have you...me? I watch the Oscars. And believe me, I watch the Oscars. IÂ’m on the edge of my couch, occasionally sweating nervously as names are read from their cards in-between cornball jokes read off of Teleprompters. See, every year for the last decade or so, my Father and I have participated in a little gentlemenÂ’s bet to see who can accurately predict the most awards. And in these last ten years, I have lost only once, and tied once. Beyond that, IÂ’ve won every time, and believe me, IÂ’ve learned from those failures.

  • interesting picks jason...your record in predicting the winners is daunting, and i hate to go up against that. i have yet to see several of the so-called best pictures of the year, including in the bedroom or a beautiful mind, so i'm not sure i can really cast any serious votes, but i will say i can not believe Monster's Ball didn't get an Oscar nom. for Best Pic.

    insane. i DO think it was pretty cool that Moulin Rouge got nominated. in the comparitively short time i've had the dvd, i've probably watched it more than any other dvd i own. super movie, and i wish it could win best pic, but i have a sinking feeling your prediction will be the correct one.

    i too will be watching on sunday on the edge of my seat!
