I need to see There Will Be Blood at Boardman's before I make final Oscar judgments.
Definitely enjoyed Juno, No Country, and Michael Clayton, but I would say No Country takes the cake among those three for Best Motion Pic and Best Direction. Didn't see Atonement yet, and I'm not sure if I will before it comes out on DVD. I really do hope the three I saw win something, though; they all had unique shining moments. Definitely Ellen Page for Leading Female, and Javier Bardem for Supporting Male.
