It's a good list, and one that appeals to my tastes. However, not sure if I find some of these to be "better" than some of the nominated films.

Anything but Argo. I'm pulling for an upset. I think Amour and Django Unchained are the best movies listed.

Arkin probably doesn't have a shot because his role was too brief.
I'm torn on supporting actor. I really could see either Jones or Waltz taking it, and I can't say which I feel more strongly about. If Ralph Fiennes would have won the Oscar he deserved (IMHO) for Schindler's List, Jones would be up for his first and would be a lock.
As much I like Daniel Day-Lewis, I'd love to see Hugh Jackman win. He doesn't have a prayer though.

I'm rooting for Zero Dark Thirty although regrettably, I think Argo is going to win it.
i would much rather go with a film that really tries to be accurate to history and entertain at the same time over one that constantly avoids accuracy and descends to Hollywood cliches in order to entertain.
It was a much harder feat to accomplish for ZDT.

I keep confused. A picture came out yesterday of Hugh Jackman (looking like) he is still filming Wolverine and now I see him with a thick goatee.
Is he sticking that thing on?

I think Mcfarlane will do fine tonight thought I'm dreading his inevitable musical numbers.
Of the nominees that I've seen, I'd like Argo to win. I still think Lincoln will get it though. It's just the type of movie Oscar loves.
I hope Hathaway doesn't win simply because I don't want to listen to her give phoney, pandering speech.

I frickin' love Adele. She's got genuine talent and isn't afraid of standing up for herself and others. She told off Chris Brown at the Grammys when he didn't applaud Frank Ocean. She's awesome.
Also, I have no problems with Hathaway. She gets naked a lot. There are worse reasons to get an oscar. Although Amy Adams gave the best performance in that category.
