I've altered the rankings in my
Supporting Actor Predictions for Oscar. But I'll say this. It looks volatile ... or at least more volatile than other categories. Nearly a dozen men still in the mix, albeit with varying levels of traction. But
here's where I currently think Oscar will go.
Return and discuss.- Why did Steve Carell (a comedian getting serious) never get any traction?
- Where did Brad Pitt's buzz go?
- Can Oscar enjoy Mark Wahlberg the way audiences do?
- Of the major players, who do you think doesn't have the traction suspected?
