The Hobbit will be the commercial nomination.I hate the idea of the commercial nomination it should be the best film regardless if the are indie, art house, big studio oscar film or blockbuster.Commercial nomination is just a sell out nomination.

Well, it looks like Brave is out. Revised predicts:

Anna Karenina

The Avengers

Beasts of the Southern Wild

The Dark Knight Rises

Django Unchained

The Hobbit

Les Miserables

Lincoln

The Master

Zero Dark Thirty

I think there's a chance Avengers could fill the "commercial" void left by Brave.

I disagree with these two films.

My very early prediction:Les MiserablesThe HobbitThe MasterLincolnBeasts of the Southern WildDjango UnchainedFlightMoonrise KingdomZero Dark ThirtyLife of Pi could knock Flight, Moonrise, or Zero Dark out but Ang Lee is often hit or miss and it kind of seems like a "Tintin" type movie to me, with the book it's based on. Doesn't sound that Oscar baiting.

Random fact-I believe Hugo is the only film that has topped my best of the year in the 2000s that did not make 100M :P

Lol, and Lord of the Rings Fellowship of the Ring is the only movie top my best of the year in the 2000s that made more than 100M :P Edited by riczhang

I am sure Avengers wont be nominated, even if it should be. TDKR will probably be, though it has to live up to TDK (which I know people will be disapointed by TDKR even if its the best film ever)Anyway my earliest predictions:BraveDark Knight RisesDjango UnchainedHobbitLawlessLife of PiLincolnThe MasterOne ShotSome movie we don't know about yet :P(I am sure nobody had Artist at this point)

Right now I see for director:JacksonLee (Life of PI)SpielbergNolanAnd someone else.

What I posted in May.I think Flight has a chance.

^The Hobbit? ;)

The hobbit is more of a money grab than anything else IMO, so I'm not predicting it for a BP nom. Also, the Academy I dunno probably should be tired of giving Jackson noms especially after all three LOTR got noms, and the last one went 11 for 11.

9.2/10 avergae rating for Beasts Of The Souther Wild after 17 reviews.Dayum.

Up to 9.3 average rating now. :blink: Holy shit, at this rate it may set an average rating record. Really bizarre thing though is that it has a fairly dismal 6.9 rating on IMDB right now. Is this gonna be a film critics just adore but audiences hate? Hmm...
