I just filled out my Oscar predictions for Jeff, and you and I agree on most everything. The only differences were on the supporting actor categories. And I don't have Star Wars winning a single award.
I'm pretty sad about the Oscars this year. I haven't seen any of the contenders (unless you count Star Wars and King Kong). I don't even plan on watching, although with Jon Stewart hosting it will probably be entertaining.
Well, I correctly choose 14 out of 24 (not bad). I finished 3rd in Jeff's (Thanks for noticing me) pool and would have finished 3rd in Mark's (aka pastorguy) pool had he received my ballot (I smell a conspiracy ;)
I ended up watching the latter half of the show. Stewart turned in an entertaining performance. I would have enjoyed it more had their been some nominated films I actually cared about.
