2009 Academy Awards Predictions

Updated - eight out of nine (I should have listened to my gut on Sean Penn).

Once again, I thought I would put up a guess at the winners for the major awards.

Best Picture - Slumdog Millionaire
Best Director - Danny Boyle (Slumdog Millionaire)
Best Actor - Mickey Rourke (The Wrestler) Sean Penn
Best Supporting Actor - Heath Ledger (The Dark Knight)
Best Actress - Kate Winslett (The Reader)
Best Supporting Actress - Penelope Cruz (Vicky Christina Barcelona)
Best Original Screenplay - Milk
Best Adapted Screenplay - Slumdog Millionaire
Best Animated Film - WALL-E

The pick that I am most uncertain about is best actor. Sean Penn could take it.
