I really think this'll be Keira's year. And I'm happy, too. I love that woman.
Angelina Jolie has a shot.
Foster won't even come close.

all i'm going to say is that javier bardem better win "best actor in a supporting role" or i'm going to be pissed.

I'd be happy if he won, but I also think Affleck deserves a shot for his role in The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford.
They both play creepy roles, but in very different ways.
Bardem plays a balls-to-the-wall psycho, an almost supernatural machine, and he plays it with unbelievable power. You can see the sheer insanity on his face when he strangles that officer in the beginning. He was excellent in this.
However, Casey really gave a draining performance as Robert Ford, in which he starts out as a boy, searching for a way to meet his childhood idol, Jesse James. The search becomes an obsession, and when he finds him, he is such a creeper that Jesse himself starts getting nervous. Eventually, he becomes so obssessed with the outlaw that he believs the only way to level him is to murder him. And he does.

Either one is worthy, but, to be quite honest, I think Casey's role was a tad more worthy. THis being said, I'd be happy to see Bardem win.

I believe deep in my heart that Bardem will win hands down.

I know, right? I was a doubter...but now I consider him one of Hollywood's best.

If you get a chance, and find a showing, yuo should definately check it out.
