I'm sure she's gonna be dynamite hosting the Oscars. They need someone as witty and sweet as Ellen to liven it up, without being rude.

None of the nominees are shocking. Since Prince's song was awful, I expected it would be nominated. Glad it wasn't. Love You I Do is a good song, but I expect it will lose to Listen.
My guesses (and probably the only real thought I'll pay to the awards this year): The Departed (The Queen is the best of those, but it's far too short) Helen Mirren Forest Whitaker (maybe Peter O'Toole) Jennifer Hudson Eddie Murphy Martin Scorsese An Inconvenient Truth beat to it edit [Edited 1/23/07 6:10am] | |
