Awards season is upon us. Crushingly so. You can barely get through a commercial block without "nominated for..." bursting your eardrums. Access Hollywood, Extra, and all the rest are a-twitter with last minute posturing. Celebs are getting facials, massages, and gifts galore. And we want in.
We'll be covering the event all Sunday with fashion disasters, award victors, and other juicy tidbits.
Until then, we've channeled our inner Roger Ebert - picking our favorites and adding a dash of WWTHFPD. Now it's your turn. Who do you think should win? Jump into the prognostication game. Vote in our polls for your picks or post a comment below. Here are our picks for the winners of a few key categories.
Best Motion Picture - Drama
The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button: too obvious
Frost/Nixon: too heady
The Reader: too dramatic
* Revolutionary Road: just right
Slumdog Millionaire: too scrappy
Poll
Best Motion Picture - Musical Or Comedy
Burn After Reading: too campy
Happy-Go-Lucky: too underdoggy
* In Bruges: just right
Mamma Mia!: too happy
Vicky Cristina Barcelona: too Woody
Best Television Series - Drama
Dexter: too bloody
House: too old (not you, Hugh!)
In Treatment: close second
* Mad Men: just right
True Blood: too trendy
Best Television Series - Musical Or Comedy
* 30 Rock: just right
Californication: too sex addicty
Entourage: too cool
The Office: too obvious
Weeds: too old (not you, Mary Louise!)
There you have it. Picks of four of the biggest categories of the night. And we're probably wrong on all counts. So what? The fun is bagging on the outifts anyway! Enjoy the show!
