I thought "Benjamin Button" was good, but not worthy of a Best Pic nom. The Dark Knight was one of the worst films I saw this year, but Ledger was fantastic. Hoping Milk does really well. I really enjoyed that.

Oh my goodness, you're taste in movies is wonderful. Finally someone who says about the Knight what is right. I hope that Milk gets the award would be a compensation for failing Brokeback Mountain two years ago.

I will have my fingers crossed for Kate Winslet - if the Golden Globes is anything to go by, she stands a good chance.

I haven't seen Benjamin Button yet so will have to wait to make a comment on that and on who i think should win Best Actor. Same goes for Best Actress but I'd like Kate Winslet to get it this year as she's lovely! lol
Heath Ledger should get Best Supporting Actor!

I do hope Heath wins Supporting Actor, I know it's be said loads of times. But his performance in The Dark Knight is amazing.
