I saw the trailer yesterday, and while it doesn't look that great to me, it has the look of the type of film that the Academy just LOVES. <BR/><BR/>But Nathaniel, if I was to bet today, I would say you are on track with <I>Australia</I>, <I>The Dark Knight</I>, and <I>Milk</I>. Though, I think <I>Milk</I> will be the "dark horse". It will probably be more in play for Best Actor, but best pic seems doubtful.Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08067136509248849744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-20521737052480397632008-10-27T13:03:00.000-04:002008-10-27T13:03:00.000-04:00Seems like I will hate 2009's Academy Awards.Seems like I will hate 2009's Academy Awards.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-41719221922457009372008-10-27T12:52:00.000-04:002008-10-27T12:52:00.000-04:00I think THE WRESTLER will slide into that spot tha...I think THE WRESTLER will slide into that spot that BLOOD did last year. And Oscars haven't been as keen on thrillingly happy films like SLUMDOG in a while. (i.e. NO COUNTRY, THE DEPARTED, CRASH, MILLION DOLLAR BABY...) If SLUMDOG gets a spot, I really don't think it has a chance at winning and I think the Rourke-dom will carry WRESTLER to a lot of noms.

No...I'm not sold on SLUMDOG being a real contender. Now, granted, there is always one nominee that isn't a real contender, but I don't see it getting nominated. I think Searchlight will end up pushing harder for THE WRESTLER which (I hope because I like it more) has more Oscar potential. I can see RACHEL or WALL-E fitting in as well, but I think if they run a smart Oscar campaign, we could see a lot of THE WRESTLER in there. Or at least I hope so...James Hansenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09650436008918093617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-86110971494223637872008-10-27T11:04:00.000-04:002008-10-27T11:04:00.000-04:00Don't count out Gran Torino.
