Well I am happy with the 70% marks and awards for Rasul, Rahman, Winslet and Wall-e. Congrats to Oscar winners!</p>
<p>Note : I never considered Oscar as the international film award. Its just a prestigious national award.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span class="drop">T</span>he following contains the loosely described predictions of this years<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academy_Award"> Oscar awards</a>. They are based on the published nomination and I have not seen all of them! Its personal, its my prediction not of any community or organisation I am working with, Here goes my prediction.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Best Film :</strong></span> Prediction : <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1010048/">Slumdog Millionaire </a>Wish: <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0421715/">The Curious Case of Benjamin Button</a></p>
<p><em>Why not Slum dog.</em> As many of my friends suggested, its worth to watch, but not for an Oscar. Though the film is greatly made with high quality photography, editing and screenplay, the story is not refined as,  Why do they characters sometime use Hindi sentences and is the final question worth for a 20million question extra comes to mind after watching the movie.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role:</strong></span><strong> </strong>Prediction : <strong><a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000620/">Mickey Rourke</a></strong> for <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1125849/">The Wrestler</a></p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role: </strong></span><strong> </strong>Prediction: <strong><a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000701/">Kate Winslet</a></strong> for <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0976051/">The Reader</a></p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role:</strong></span> Prediction : <strong><a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005132/">Heath Ledger</a></strong> for <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0468569/">The Dark Knight</a> Its sure. How else could!</p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role: </span></strong>Prediction : <strong><a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000673/">Marisa Tomei</a></strong> for <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1125849/">The Wrestler</a> or <strong><a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0004851/">Penélope Cruz</a></strong> for <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0497465/">Vicky Cristina Barcelona</a> Note: I haven&#8217;t seen<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0918927/"> Doubt</a> yet.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Best Achievement in Directing: </strong></span>Prediction :<strong><a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000965/">Danny Boyle</a></strong> for <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1010048/">Slumdog Millionaire</a> . Its worthy! He needs it</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span><strong><strong>Best Adapted Screenplay:</strong></strong></span></span><span><strong><strong> </strong></strong>Prediction : </span><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0421715/" target="_blank">The Curious Case of Benjamin Button</a></p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Best Writing, Screenplay Written Directly for the Screen</strong></span><strong> : </strong><strong><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0910970/">WALL·E </a></strong></p>
<p>It has to get that award. Story, the major factor of WALL-E is so stunning and the way of presentation is brilliant. Also will be a great inspiration for the animation industry.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Best Animated Feature Film of the Year:</strong></span><strong> </strong><strong><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0910970/">WALL·E</a></strong> Wanna bet?<strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Best Achievement in Music Written for Motion Pictures, Original Song: </strong></span><strong><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1010048/">Slumdog Millionaire</a> (2008): </strong><a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0006246/">A.R. Rahman</a>, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0347899/">Sampooran Singh Gulzar</a><span class="notes">(&#8220;Jai Ho&#8221;) Do that really owns a Oscar? For one who heard the awesome music of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A._R._Rahman">Rahman</a> from his movies like <em>Roja, Minsarakanavu, Bombay and Dilse</em>, this song does get a seat in Best 100 songs of ARR collection.</span></p>
