This morning, the Oscar nominations were announced. Here’s my take on the big three.

  • Best Movie: The Queen
  • Best Actor: Forest Whitaker
  • Best Actress: Helen Mirren

Now, if Forest Whitaker doesn’t win, there’s going to be hell to pay, I say! Peter O’Toole’s been up for an Oscar 7 times already and lost. This is his eighth and there’s talk of a sympathy award. Some of the trendier Hollywood sites are saying Leo might have a chance, but that’s just BS!

I wish that Last King of Scotland was up for Best Movie, because (a) it should be and (b) it should win. Alas, it isn’t, so I’m going with my choice above.
