Best Director: The Coen Brothers, but could also be Julian Schnabel.
Best Animated Film: Ratatouille, although Persepolis could easily win, too.
Best Supporting Actor: Javier Bardem has it in the bag, IMO.

Thanks Tessa! I actually entered a contest at my local movie rental place. The stuff listed here I got right, as well as both screenplays, best song, best foreign film, and best makeup. But I got art direction, special effects, and sound wrong, so I don't think I'll be winning. Still fun though.
