Daniel Day Lewis is my pick for the Best actor category.Viggo Mortensen is also a dark horse contender.In best motion picture "No Country for Old Men" is hands down the best of the lot.Although the other nominees are also solid but the Academy has a liking for the Coen Brothers!

Dude, haven't you seen any hollywood sports movies? Chak De India is a new wine in hollywood bottle. They've lifted many scenes from a sport movie. Only thing is that movie was based on ice hockey. Chak De India is an average movie for me. I've seen tons of such hollywood movies.


TZP will in the next year's list, if at all it's nominated.

Guess Who's Back
Time to Pridict :

The best actor will go to 'There will be blood''s Daniel Day-Lewis , before you guys think anyone other than him can win than you should check the movie out , his acting is superb.


The best motion picture award will go to No Country for Old Men , damn sure about it , 'There will be blood' has a small chance to win the the oscar.
