I think it's possible that Clint might sneak in and take that Best Actor trophy. Esp. if they give director to Scorcese. Foxx has been more than welcomed to the "big time" with DOUBLE nominations. But who knows?
I would not be upset if Leonardo won.

What if Clint wins Best Actor out of the blue? He's been nominated before, and he is 70 odd...what if the Academy think 'Aww, bless his cotton socks...', and ignore Jamie Foxx? I predict maybe Foxx fatigue has set in.
However, after Jamie has won, I will hastily edit this post.
If Jamie doesn't win, who are everyone's predictions for the winner? My money's on DiCapario or Cheadle *fingers crossed*.
seriously, the 13 year old in me wants him to win SO badly. him being the leo.
Keeping my fingers crossed for Bening too, Princeton. We can cry together!
LOL..I don't think its that we don't like Jaime, I think we all find his impending victory too predictable.
Don Cheadle is a god.

heehee, cotton socks.
Yea really. Then Scorsese could dhave his best direcor Osacr and we wouldn't have to worry about it again.
The 13 year old Titanic fan, right?
Ditto./
God can't they just announce them all at once and then let us just watch live coverage of the losers after parties instead. Or just let us watch the Weinsteins for four hours.
This is by far the absolute most boring Oscar telecast I've ever seen. I hope Hilary Swank just rips one up on stage. At least that would wake me up for a minute.
Titanic was a piece of crap. GWH deserved to win that year and you all know it.
is it sad that i'd sleep with the majority of the best actor nominees?
Having just seen Hotel Rwanda last night, Cheadle would be an inspired choice. He was sublime.
no cause I would too. and I'll throw Clive Owen on there too

titanic was NOT a piece of crap. i dont know that it deserved 11 oscars, but it was not crap.
Oh, I won't deny it, TheGa, but the teenybopper I was then thought Damn, Leo was soooooo cuuuute! (Which, you know, justifies him winning tonight.)
ellie, i said MOST

Are those floation devices clapping madly in the balcony Lumet's wife??
Leo once said he wished he hadn't made Titanic but been in Boogie Nights instead. He turned down the role that went to Mark Walberg and did Titanic instead
I loved TITANIC, I still do.
This award show is pissing me off already. But I love the Scorsese/DeNiro commercial - the score sounds like the score from THE HOURS.
