I'm actually pretty intrigued to see how 10 Best Picture Nominees will effect the nominee landscape.I won't lie. I think I will generally consider the 5 films that have corresponding director nominations will seem like "the real nominees" and if an odd-ball like District 9 makes the list, I will consider it a fluke of the 10 nominee situation.
So Here are My Predictions. And I'm Breaking them up in to two group of 5...no matter how uncool that is.

My unique pick: Crazy Heart is probably unconventional to be included in the Top 10, but I kind of feel like as a late entry it's picking up steam.
My unique exclusion: For some reason it seems like District 9 is supposed to get nominated. It could, but it seems so un-Oscar-like I have a really hard time including it.
My hope: My hope is that An Education is really in that top group and is accompanied by a Best Director nominations.

I think Crazy Heart could make it, but it seems Jeff Bridges is getting most of the attention.
