Looking at the list makes me want to see Michael Clayton and The Diving Bell And The Butterfly.

It's going to be a battle between No Country and There Will Be Blood, and it's sort of a toss up for me, I loved them both, but Daniel Day Lewis takes best actor no question, that was a ridiculous performance. Casey Affleck was great in Jesse James, but Javier was pretty damn good in No Country, haven't seen the rest so I couldnt really say.

I hope Bourne gets best sound editing!

Boggles my mind how Juno could be nominated for anything.

[docnbhd]

No Country for Old Men all the way.....

[pantheist]

I think it's complete bullshit about the Johnny Greenwood score being disqualified. I've yet to see Atonement but Best Picture easily goes to There Will Be Blood and Daniel Day Lewis will get Best Actor. Bardem for Best Supporting Actor.

Juno

That's basically all the awards I care about. I really don't think Casey will beat out Javier Bardem but would LOVE to see it happen. Juno lucked out by being an "original screenplay". I'm very happy to see Once nominated for original song, I honestly don't get why it didn't get at least a nom for the GG. NCFOM seem like the favorite for most of the categories it received a nomination in but I'd rather see something else win. Also, where the hell is Brad Pitt for Best Actor. Would've liked to see Sunshine get a nomination in cinematography but that was never going to happen.

There Will Be Blood is one of the best movies I've seen in a long time. I'd be really surprised if Daniel Day-Lewis doesn't get the nod for best actor - his performance was unbelievable.
