Next Sunday is the big day, when Hollywood congratulates itself on a job well done. Well, in most cases. As with the other US based awards, I'll be conducting the contest. Vote for your choices in the categories listed below and we'll see who calls it the closest. This time, I'll be sprinkling 10 votes for every award each entrant calls correctly (this could mean visiting many pages...). Feel free to enter, vote on whom you care about winning, and if you want, sprinkle votes to the participants who call the winners correctly!!!

These choices are based on my preferences from those films I have seen, rather than what I think most likely. However, in the more technical areas, my ability to judge is relatively coarse, and in the sound categories, I have almost no ability at all (for example, I have voted for the only song I can remember).
