I can't say I'd be "thrilled" for Jake since
a) his nom is likely anyway, and
b) it's kind of a fraudulent nom
...though I am still rooting for him.
THRILLED: Joan Allen (not just cause she's great, but also because it'd display some original thinking)

Annoyed - Anything involved with Crash and Cinderella Man .
David Cronenberg
whoever it is who would be named if CHICKEN LITTLE got nomianted for best animated film.
I must say that I would indeed die of, er, thrillness if Wong Kar-Wai got nominated or Mysterious Skin got ANYTHING. I know it is nigh on impossible for the latter, but 'tev.
1) Q'Orianka Kilcher - she was mesmerizing
2) Freaking Paul Haggis. Why has Crash turned into such a big deal? Sure, it's moving, but it's far from Academy Award-worthy craftsmanship. This position is tied with anything involving Cinderella Man.
1. Most thrilled: Ralph Fiennes (who has been overdue for years)
Runner Up: Viggo Mortensen
2. Most annoyed: Crash (in any category, but especially in BP, director, and screenplay)
Runner Up: Ziyi Zhang
Most thrilled...
Amy Adams - Junebug
Naomi Watts - King Kong
Jake Gyllenhaal - Brokeback Mountain
Least Thrilled...
Charlize Theron - North Country
Johnny Depp - ANYTHING
Thrilled: Gwyneth Paltrow, Proof
Annoyed: Charlize Theron, North Country
1.Fiennes (pleaaaase)
2.Crowe
thrilled: Apichatpong Weerasethakul
annoyed: Paul Haggis
You didn't say it had to be reasonable.
