[spydar]

k, since I haven't seen many of those here's the few I can hope for:

BEST ACTOR
Sean Penn (though I would love for my boy Johnny to get it)

BEST ACTRESS
Charlize Theron

ANIMATED FEATURE FILM
Find Nemo

ART DIRECTION
LotR

COSTUME DESIGN
LotR

DIRECTING
LotR (yay PJ!!)

MAKE-UP
LotR

MUSIC (for either score or song, cause they're both great)
LotR

VISUAL EFFECTS
I'm at a tie with either Pirates or LotR (gotta love the underwater scene with the pirates)

ADAPTED SCREENPLAY
LotR

ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY
I wanna say Finding Nemo but Im gonna have to vote for Lost in Translation

gee, can you tell what movie I'm rooting for to win?? had better be LotR, otherwise there's gonna be one very irate geek over here!
and sadly, I'm aware that it won't win them all (I'm thinking maybe 4 or so) but one can dream. but I wouldn't be in the least bit surprised to see many of them split among Cold Mountain, Master and Commander, and/or Mystic River.
