Oscars: Supporting Actor
The nominees are:
Casey Affleck, The Assassination of Jesse James ...
Javier Bardem, No Country for Old Men
Philip Seymour Hoffman, Charlie Wilson's War
Hal Holbrook, Into the Wild
Tom Wilkinson, Michael Clayton
Geez louise, 'Michael Clayton' cleaned up, didn't it? Strange for a low-key talker. Javier's the intellectual shoo-in for this one, but Hal Holbrook might just make through on sentimental votes. And that wouldn't be a bad thing -- he was the trembling voice of reason in 'Into The Wild,' and his performance still kind of gets to me. But so does Emile Hirsch's, and you don't see him on the best actor list. [Breathe, Hunter, breathe.]

Maybe Emile will snag a nod next year for a powerful turn in the upcoming Speed Racer. You know you're dying to see it!!

Oh yeah. I can't freakin' wait. Although I hope the Wichamosghausgadki (sp?) brothers don't feel the need to make sequels for Speed Racer that are much more complicated and ultimately unwatchable. Because they tend to do that.
