On animated feature: It's a coin toss between "Cars" and "Happy Feet". However, my money would probably lean towards the dancing penguins if I was a gambler.

On Best Picture: "The Departed" will win for Drama. No contest there.

My moneys on Cars!!

Though my brain contains a rather unusual bout of short term memory loss, I'll do my best to remember to watch the Golden Globes. Personally, I hope Happy Feet wins. *waits for everyone to gasp*

*gasp*

I'm still backing Cars!

Two battles:

Babel vs. The Departed

Babel just HAS to win.

Cars vs. Happy Feet

Cars just HAS to win. (Although I loved HF too)

There is no way that "Babel" will win.

If it doesn't go to "Departed", "The Queen" will win. No contest.

Danny - Aha -- the first gasp!

Yeah, I loved Cars, but Happy Feet is more in my favor, for some reason. But I wouldn't mind it if Cars grabbed the award. Both films are wonderful.

Babel's much better received in Europe than in America. Many critics called it THE oscar favorite.
And, Golden Globes' journalists aren't only from America.

Haha.

Yeah, I know. But I've only seen Cars so I'm a bit biased

I remember when you wanted "Monster House" to win, Dan.

Post by **Daniel** » January 13th, 2007, 7:50 pm

Wow, you remember that?

Haha, well of course I would that one to win as well. Its just that their both great films, its so hard to choose!

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this but the three BAFTA nominees are Cars, Flushed Away, and Happy Feet. So I pretty much guarentee that Cars and Happy Feet will be nominated but that third slot is wide open.

BAFTA has Flushed Away, because the humor and all is british.
I don't think that Flushed Away will get nominated for the Oscar.

Post by **Dacey** » January 14th, 2007, 9:15 am

Why shouldn't it be nominated?

I mean, Oscar loves British humor.

Post by **Mitch** » January 14th, 2007, 4:29 pm

Danny - Ahh...no wonder. Well, I still say that you should see it.

Wendy's Jane - Yeah. The Curse of the Were-Rabbit won last year, but that doesn't explain why Flushed Away didn't get nominated. At least, I don't think that it got nominated, from what I heard.

But I agree -- it should at least win something. I thought it was funny. Not as good as Happy Feet, but....
