[HBK]

does anybody bet on this? and if so what are the good $$$ making bets?

[aplous]

Empty your account on Heath Ledger to win Best Supporting Actor. He will be -10000 probably but he's as close to a lock as anything in this life time.

Others (I havent seen lines, just telling you who's gonna win)

Actor: Penn or the guy that played Nixon
Actress: Winslet
Movie: Slumdog

lock............always a dog in there

[tech fan]

Not sure who it was but there is someone here that is very good at these.it might be aplous but in recent years this guy gave out oscar picks that were pretty solid

[tech fan]

best underdog pick would be

AMY ADAMS +650 IN BEST ACTRESS IN SUPPORTING ROLE FOR HER MOVIE DOUBT

[Gin]

best actor either goes to penn or rourke imo...i'd probably say rourke for the feel good aspects of it and he was very good in the wrestler.

ledger is solid.

slumdog for best picture...

actresses not sure...i hate women.
