and for the hell of it, this should also be the thread for the Indie Spirit Awards which are tomorrow at 10 on IFC. Usually that one is the most fun, since everyone is encouraged to swear and this year Joel McHale is hosting

The only way this show will be interesting is if Franco surprises Hathaway by taking her from behind live during the monologue (or, err, duologue?).
Also I'm curious what Banksy is going to do. Will he show up? He's been given awards before and stayed away. Will he send a proxy? Something totally unexpected?

That it deserves it as the best documentary of the year is another thing.

He's been reported to have done stuff here in LA as well. I think it's safe to say he's in CA at the moment.

A designated proxy is only allowed to accept in the event that the winner is deceased.

Is there really any chance of an upset in any of the actor awards?
Seems like Firth, Portman, Leo, and Bale pretty much have it wrapped up.
I suppose I'd like to believe Amy Adams could sneak in, but it does seem pretty much set in stone with the actors who are heavily favored to win to take home their Oscar.

I don't think Melissa Leo will win. a) Amy Adams deserves it far more, as does Hailee Steinfeld, and b) she had a meltdown with the self campaign. Helena Bonham Carter is quickly rising in favour.
