    Cotillard and A Royal Affair noms. My gut says one will miss out. Plus Skyfall and Les Mis love.

    Emmanuelle Riva for Best Actress
    Zero Dark Thirty for Best Picture
    Amour IN Best Picture, Director, Screenplay (and, a longshot, win... XD)
    Roger Deakins for Best Cinematography
    Wide Awake for Best Song I mean, Abraham's Daughter for Best Song/Breath of Life for Best Song

    And a few farther and almost impossible hopes:
    Doona Bae and Rebel Wilson for Best Supporting Actress
    The Intouchables snub
    Nicole Kidman snub
    Suddenly snub
    Denis Lavant for Best Actor
    Cloud Atlas for Best Picture

    Oh, I forgot. Ultra unrealistic, and actually, wrong one: Pitch Perfect for Sound Mixing. Yeah, I know that's not what Sound Mixing really means, but c'mon.

    The semi-realistic ones:
    Rachel Weisz in Best Actress
    Ann Dowd in Best Supporting Actress
    Cloud Atlas for anything, preferably Production Design
    "Breath of Life" in Best Original Song
    Beyond the Hills in Best Foreign Language Film
    I know I've got a big ego, I really don't know why it's such a big deal, though.
