Notes -
I haven't seen "The Blind Side", but my wife did and loved it. I really struggled with the "Best Actress" category. I did see "Julie and Julia" and liked it, but I don't think Streep will win.
I saw both "The Hurt Locker" and "Inglourious Basterds" and picked the latter for sheer creativity.
I haven't seen "Up in the Air", but it will win for Adapted Screenplay
"Up" is the best Pixar movie to-date.
"Best Costume Design" is a complete guess - I haven't seen any of the nominees.
"Star Trek" and "Avatar" ROCKED!
