Picks/Predictions |

Best Film
*Black Swan
*Inception
*The King's Speech
*The Social Network
*True Grit |
"The Social Network" won
the Golden Globe, so it is possible it will win here. My personal
favorite of the nominees? It's a three way tie between "Inception",
"The King's Speech", and "True Grit."
Gabriel's Pick: "True Grit" - "The cowboy one, I
love." |

Director
*127 Hours
*Black Swan
*Inception
*The King's Speech
*The Social Network |
"The Social Network" (David
Fincher) won a Golden Globe for this category. BAFTA may follow suit.
My pick? "Inception." Chris Nolan. Need you ask?

Original Screenplay
*Black Swan
*The Fighter
*Inception
*The Kid's Are All Right
*The King's Speech |
Chris Nolan is well
deserving for "Inception." If not him, my next choice is David Seidler
for the "The King's Speech." It was positively delightful.
Gabriel's pick: "The King's Speech" |
| |
|
|
Adapted Screenplay
*127 Hours
The Girl With the Dragon
Tattoo
*The Social Network
*Toy Story 3
*True Grit |
Once again, this category
at the Golden Globes went to "The Social Network." Of the movies I've
seen in this category, I'd be more comfortable if "127 Hours" won.
Gabriel's pick "Toy Story 3" |
| |
|
|
Film Not in the English Language
Biutiful
The Girl With the Dragon
Tattoo
I Am Love
Of Gods and Men
The Secret in Their Eyes |
Haven't seen any of them.
Best guess is either "Biutiful" or "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo." |
|
|
|
|
Animated Film
*Despicable Me
*How to Train Your Dragon
*Toy Story 3 |
"Toy Story 3" won the
Golden Globe. I'm still holding out for "How to Train Your Dragon."
Gabriel's pick: "How to Train Your Dragon" |
|
|
|
|
Leading Actor
Javier Bardem - Biutiful
*Jeff Bridges - True Grit
*Jesse Eisenberg - The
Social Network
*Colin Firth - The King's
Speech
*James Franco - 127 Hours |
Colin Firth won the Golden
Globe. But Jeff Bridges wasn't nominated. So...
I'd be happy with either
one of them winning.
Gabriel's pick: Colin Firth |
|
|
|
|
Leading Actress
*Annette Bening - The Kids
Are All Right
*Julianne Moore - The Kids
Are All Right
*Natalie Portman - Black
Swan
Noomi Rapace - The Girl
With the Dragon Tattoo

Grit |
Natalie.
Portman.
Gabriel's pick: Hailee Steinfeld |
|
|
|
|
Supporting Actor
*Christian Bale - The
Fighter
*Andrew Garfield - The
Social Network
*Pete Postlethwaite - The
Town
*Mark Ruffalo - The Kids
Are All Right
*Geoffrey Rush - The King's
Speech |
Christian Bale won the
Golden Globe. I'd be happy if he won the BAFTA too.
Gabriel's pick: Christian Bale |
|
|
|
|
Supporting Actress
*Amy Adams - The Fighter
*Helena Bonham Carter - The
King's Speech
*Barbara Hershey - Black
Swan
Lesley Manville - Another
Year

Hmmm.
Of the three that I've
seen, I'd choose Amy Adams.
Gabriel's pick: Amy Adams |
|
|
|
|
Original Music
*127 Hours
*Alice in Wonderland
*How to Train Your Dragon
*Inception
*The King's Speech |
"How to Train Your Dragon" or
"Inception."
I love them both.
Gabriel's pick: "How to Train Your Dragon" |
|
|
|
|
Cinematography
*127 Hours
*Black Swan
*Inception
*The King's Speech
*True Grit |
I'd probably choose "Black
Swan" here.
Gabriel's pick: "True Grit" |
| |
|
|
Editing
*127 Hours
*Black Swan
*Inception
*The King's Speech
*The Social Network |
I'd probably have to say
"Black Swan" here as well.
It just adds so much to the madness.
But, "Inception" was really well done too.
And so was "127 Hours."
Gabriel's pick: "The King's Speech" |
| |
|
|
Production Design
*Alice in Wonderland
*Black Swan
*Inception
*The King's Speech
*True Grit |
"Alice in Wonderland" for
it's colors and charming madness.
"Black Swan" for its
eeriness.
"Inception" for it's dream
environments.
"The King's Speech" for its
sparseness.
"True Grit" for being pure
western, without overdoing it.
Five way tie!
Gabriel's pick: "Alice in Wonderland" |
| |
|
|
Costume Design
*Alice in Wonderland
*Black Swan
*The King's Speech
Made in Dagenham
*True Grit |
It may go to one of three
(that I've seen):
"Alice in Wonderland"
"The King's Speech"
"True Grit"
Gabriel's pick: "Alice in Wonderland" |
| |
|
|
Sound
*127 Hours
*Black Swan
*Inception
*The King's Speech
*True Grit |
I'd say either "Inception" or "Black
Swan." Gabriel's pick: "The King's
Speech" |
| |
|
|
Special Visual Effects
*Alice in Wonderland
*Black Swan
*Harry Potter and the
Deathly Hallows: Part 1
*Inception
*Toy Story 3 |
"Toy Story 3" over "How To Train Your
Dragon" in this category? They can't be serious. And why is an
animated feature even in this category.
I have a four way tie
between the live action movies nominated.
Gabriel's pick: "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" |
| |
|
|
Make Up & Hair
*Alice in Wonderland
*Black Swan
*Harry Potter and the
Deathly Hallows: Part 1
*The King's Speech
Made in Dagenham |
It will probably go to "Alice in
Wonderland."
I don't quite get "The King's Speech" nomination.
Perhaps them making Jennifer Ehle look older?
Gabriel's pick: "Harry Potter and the Deathly
Hallows" |

Orange Wednesday's Rising Award
Gemma Arterton
Andrew Garfield
Tom Hardy
Aaron Johnson
Emma Stone |
I don't like Gemma.
Andrew is the next Spidey,
and was very good in "The Social Network" so he may get votes.
Tom Hardy is just awesome,
so he has my vote.
Aaron Johnson was great in
"Kick-Ass", and was probably great as John Lennon in "Nowhere Boy"
(but I haven't seen it yet).
Emma Stone was delightful
in "Easy A." |
