First off, this was a really weak year. Secondly, Hanks shouldn't get the Oscar. The part on the island was very well done, but the beginning and end were just plain stupid and a waste of time. So, if he gets the Oscar it's for 1/2 of a movie.
Best Picture
I'd like to see Crouching Tiger take this, but I'd be happy with Traffic as both were excellent. I enjoyed Gladiator, but best pitcture? That's like giving it to Titanic or Forrest Gump ... oh, wait, nevermind ...
Best Actor
I haven't seen 3 of the 5 so no comment though I hear Ed Harris was excellent - but no one saw his movie so it won't win.
Best Actress
Well, this category will make Entertainment Tonight happy. I mean, she's "earned" it what with all those great movies she's made ...
There is no way Julia does not win this.
Best Supporting Actor
Finally a category I can be happy with the favorite. Benicio was phenomenal and deserves this one.
Best Supporting Actress
Again, haven't seen them all, but I think either of the Almost Famous actresses deserve it. Both were very good though I wasn't as impressed with Hudson's performance as most apparantly were.
