I will put my pick followed by the winner.

Best Writing, Screenplay Based on Material Previously Produced or Published

My prediction: Children Of Men
Winner: The Departed, okay I can see it.

Best Writing, Screenplay Written Directly For The Screen

Best Achievement In Directing
Nominees

My Prediction: Martin Scorsese
Winner: Martin Scorsese, He finally got one.

Best Performance By An Actress In A Supporting Role
Nominees

My Prediction: Jennifer Hudson
Winner: Jennifer Hudson, I was hoping Rinko Kikuchi would have gotten it. Nothing against Ms. Hudson, I didn't see her movie.

Best Performance By An Actor In A Supporting Role
Nominees

My Prediction: Eddie Murphy
Winner: Alan Arkin! Whoo Hoo! I know I picked Murphy but I really wanted Arkin to win.

Best Performance By An Actress In A Leading Role
Nominees

My Prediction: Helen Mirren
Winner: Helen Mirren, Well, that was anticlimactic.

Best Performance By An Actor In A Leading Role
Nominees

My Prediction: Forest Whitaker
Winner: Forest Whitaker, I like the guy, he's pretty cool.

Best Motion Picture Of The Year
Nominees

My prediction: The Departed
Winner: (2 years in a row!)


Well, I wasn't perfect but I did pretty good, 6 out of 8, just like last year, I missed the Best Supporting Actor just like last year (I'm gonna have to work on that), but I got the Best Director right. Pretty good, what do you think?

That's a great batting average you've got going, better than most of those predictors on TV. Have you considered working in the media?
