Oscar Contest!

I do have a little TV like that back at home in Michigan. I suppose I could have Lynn bring it when we meet up on the west side of Michigan on Saturday, but I just don't want anymore stuff to worry about bringing back next week. I'm nearly certain the Oscars are streamed live online. Or JustinTV will have it.

Only about a day left to get your predictions in!

Christian Bale - best supporting actor
Melissa Leo - best supporting actress (not real sure on this one)
David Fincher - director for "The Social Network"

i just love the oscars. great people, pretty outfits, it's the most wonderful award show (that i've seen, that is)

Rico · February 27, 2011, 06:20:42 PM

Well, seem to have lost all ways to view the awards online. But the little I saw I liked. The hosts seem to be doing well.

WillEagle · February 27, 2011, 07:02:11 PM

I think Anna is doing better than James. I have seen more James Franco movies than Anna's though.

Bryancd · February 27, 2011, 07:05:12 PM

James Franco is a dude.

Looks like I did pretty good with my predictions. I'll check the contest entries and post here soon who our winner is.

Rico · February 28, 2011, 06:38:30 AM

Looks like Kenny is the contest winner! He predicted ALL seven of the big awards I had listed for the contest correctly. Congrats Kenny! A couple others were very close too. Kenny, email me your address for your prize package.

Jobydrone · February 28, 2011, 07:35:31 AM

Grats Kenny, I only missed one, Melissa Leo. I had picked Hailey Stienfeld for True Grit.

Rico · February 28, 2011, 07:40:21 AM

Yeah, you did good too Joby. I think this was a pretty easy year to predict. While I liked "The King's Speech", I still kind of wish "The Social Network" had won for best picture. But what I want to win rarely ever is picked.

Geekyfanboy · February 28, 2011, 08:37:51 AM

Wow.. I won.. yay!!! And yes this was a pretty predictable Oscars.

I know most folks didn't enjoy it.. but I thought it was good.. I thought Anne did better then James..

but my favorite part was of course the Autotuned Harry Potter.
