The Oscars

Posted by Chris Campbell at Friday, February 20, 2009

I can't say I care much for award shows anymore, but the Oscars are clearly eons more reputable than say, The Grammys. Unlike The Grammys (which I haven't watched in at least a decade), I will tune in on Sunday. And as always, I'm sure I'll be disappointed in the results. Nevertheless, the following are my predictions for who will win, as well as who should win. Although I haven't seen every film or every performance, eh, what the heck...





BEST PICTURE
Will : Slumdog Millionaire
Should : The Wrestler (not nominated)

BEST DIRECTOR
Will : Danny Boyle for Slumdog Millionaire
Should : Darren Aronofsky for The Wrestler (not nominated)
