Real Predictions, from a Guy Who Takes This Too Seriously
by Scott Hardie on February 25, 2007

Some of my Oscar contest predictions are solely based on my odds of "winning" the contest. I'm curious to find out if what film I really think will win in certain categories comes out on top.

Best Picture: Babel
Best Original Screenplay: Babel
Best Original Score: Babel
Best Film Editing: Blood Diamond
Best Costume Design: Marie Antoinette

Here's looking forward to a good show tonight. I won't have online access where I'm going to watch, so don't look for any changes in the scores until a couple of hours after the show ends.

Gigantism

Thanks to a friend who couldn't use them, I scored They Might Be Giants tickets to replace the broken Valentines gift that I originally bought for Kelly. We took in the show last night with two other friends who happened to be going, Nathan and Raquel, and it was a great time. Most of my concerts have been metal, so I'm used to screaming and head-banging, and I didn't exactly know how to get into the music, especially since I was the least familiar with the TMBG catalog.
