[quote=The Silver Bullet]Shiezer, I'll go and change both of ours.
I need to change mine, although I probably won't be looking at forty-three. I'll get closer to fifty.[/quote]

[quote=Holden Pike]And I need to change my Oscar time overrage guess. I forgot that both Sydney Poitier [size=1]AND[/SIZE] Robert Redford are receiving honorary awards tonight. I'm now going to guess 43-minutes long.

Anybody else going to guess on the time issue?[/quote]

[quote=Yoda]Tom Wilkinson said he had no shot, too. I'd have to agree. :D

I'm gonna have fun this year. I really don't know who to put my money on...which excites me.[/quote]

[quote=The Silver Bullet]I think it'd be good just to go around Hollywood and bribe people to vote for the absoloute outsider in every single catagory.

It'd be interesting to see how many studio heads would be admitted to hospital with heart failure.

On an interesting note, I saw an interview with Nicole Kidman last night and she said, straight out that she knows she simply will not win. So that's nice. Now I hope she does.[/quote]

[quote=spudracer]Well off I go to start Alien 3.  [/quote]

[quote=Holden Pike]Then flip a coin three thosand times, always anxiously awaiting the heads or tails verdict. But don't go looking to the Academy Awards for surprises. Just doesn't happen there.[/quote]

[quote=Yoda]Well, seeing as how LOTR is nominated for 13 Oscars, and I've only picked it to win 6-7, I know I'm not just votin' on emotion...at least not TOTALLY. :)

Should be fun.[/quote]

[quote=spudracer]Anypoo...[/quote]

[quote=The Silver Bullet]I still like suprises Holden.[/quote]

[quote=Holden Pike]Ebert obviously picks emotionally, what he wanst to win more than what he thinks will actually win. Always has, always will. Ebert is [size=1]NOT[/SIZE] a good barometer for Oscar picks. Actually, he makes a decent inverse barometer.

I made one or two picks from what I WANT to win more than what I really THINK will win, but not the majority.[/quote]

[quote=Yoda]Yeah, I don't agree with him either. 'Cept when it comes to Denzel taking [b]Best Actor[/b].[/quote]
