Gay Super Bowl

Well tonight is the night... Oscar will be showing himself... I must say I did see more of the nominated movies this year than before so I am going to give my opinion on the big 6 categories...

Best Picture:  The Artist will win, but The Help should win.  Not to count out Moneyball or Midnight in Paris, but we really know how this is going to roll... I have not seen The Artist, but have seen the others I mentioned.

Best Actor: Jean Dujardin will win for The Artist, but I am going out on a limb here and saying Brad Pitt did a damn good job in Moneyball... and George Clooney should not be overlooked... though I did not see his movie.

Best Actress: Viola Davis will win and should win for The Help, but Oscar favorite Meryl Streep could pull this one out and even Michelle Williams might make an upset here like she did at the Globes...

Best Supporting Actor: Christopher Plummer will win for his role in Beginnings, but I really think Jonah Hill should get it for Moneyball... I watched Beginnings last weekend and really did not see his performance as Oscar winning, but the Academy loves him as does everyone else, thus his winning all the awards leading up to tonite. But Jonah really got me in his performance.  He stepped way outside his silly persona and gave a great performance.

Best Supporting Actress: Octavia Spencer will win and should.  Just don't eat the pie at the party if she doesn't win.

Best Directing:  The Artist will win, but I think Midnight in Paris should.  I am not a Woody Allen fan, but this movie was really great.  The whole idea of living in the now and meeting the greats from the past... the way he blended the past with the now... I loved it.

So. There are my predictions and we will see how they fall.. now time to get the fire going and get ready for the Red Carpet...

Happy Oscar Night!!
