Here are some predictions I made just before last year's Oscar telecast.
Okay, so The Terminal went thud and Meryl will be supporting instead of lead and Dogville, although brilliant, will most likely be a no-show and Altman's Paint was delayed until 2005 - but the rest don't look bad...do they?!? - Okay okay, I blew it in the Supporting categories...

And look - I was the first one on my block to name Jamie Foxx as a predicted nominee.
