Also in regards to Best Documentary Feature, I think we may be looking at our winner right here:
One way or another, Peter Jackson's name is gonna show up whether it be 'The Hobbit' (depending on its reception) or this (Jackson serves as producer) that garner nominations.

I'm starting to think that Hooper, Russell and Bigelow will be losers on Oscar night with their respective movies, because:
- Hooper's second Oscar?? The movie is great but...too soon
- Russell for Best Directing? The movie was great but it's not a directorial showcase, so...
- Bigelow's second Oscar in three years? The movie is quite god, but a secon Oscar for a female director? Let's not exaggerate!! (i'm not mysoginist, i'm just trying to think like an Academy member...)
So, the race could be Affleck vs. Spielberg (with the latter winning his last oscar 14 years ago...)
Best Picture: Argo
Best Director: Ben, Argo
Best Actor: Joaquin Phoenix, The Master
Best Actress: Jennifer Lawrence, Silver Linings Playbook

Daniel Day-Lewis will not get his third Oscar in 5 years. Streep took 29 years.
Totally possible scenarioBest Picture: Argo
Best Director: Ben, Argo

Best Supporting Actor: Tommy Lee Jones, Lincoln
Best Supporting Actress: Anne Hathaway, Les Miserables![]()
The Academy rarely rewards directors within a less-than-5-year time frame for any director, regardless of male or woman. Oliver Stone is one exception and I'm sure decades ago, there are other examples. But it has nothing to do with being a woman. They're not going to snub Bigelow because it has anything to do with a second Oscar for a female director...they may not give it to her because she won three years ago but to say Academy members are against rewarding the same woman a second Oscar if her work is brilliant is just...dumb. They're not thinking like that, even the older male members, I doubt.
I really, really hope your theory is right...it would redeem them in some ways!They're not thinking like that, even the older male members, I doubt.![]()
God, if Zero Dark Thirty keeps it up, I could see it winning Picture, Director, Actress, Original Screenplay, Film Editing, and Sound Editing.
Les MIz, still!
I guess Zero Dark Thirty?

LOL, why on Earth would Lincoln win? Whenever NBR and NY have agreed on a winner BFCA has followed track. Globes should follow in drama to compensate Hurt Locker's loss. The guilds can suddenly turn everytihng in Spielberg's favour, but I don't know why. Sorry to sound fanboy, but if something can overturn a brainy critics' choice that's swept the beginning, that's not another brainy political film, but a populist choice, especially one that can very well win Globe + BAFTA.
The one thing that makes me doubt ZDT at the Globe is that apparently when they screened it for HFPA they loved Chastain (who's winning there) but didn't like the film as much as her for some reason. I'm taking that with a grain of salt (I can't even remember where I heard that from) to say the least but it's something to consider.
What makes you say that? It's a handsome, elegant period piece directed by one of their favorites in Spielberg.
