Well, here’s how I did in [my predix](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=8177899&postcount=1):

**100%**  
Actress  
Supporting Actress  
Visual Effects

**80%**  
Picture (missed _Letters_)  
Supporting Actor (missed Haley, though he’d get my vote on the ballot)  
Original Screenplay (missed _Letters_ again)  
Adapted Screenplay (missed _Borat_)  
Costume Design (missed _Golden Flower_)

**70%**  
Actor (missed Gosling, though he’d get my vote too, and picked Leo for different film)

**67%**  
Animated Feature (overestimated Aardman over _Monster House_)  
Make-Up (did anyone anticipate _Click_?)

**60%**  
Director (missed Eastwood & Greengrass, both leagues better than Condon)  
Art Direction  
Editing  
Score  
Foreign Language Film  
Documentary Feature

**40%**  
Cinematography (got _Children of Men_ & _Illusionist_ right)  
Song (got 1 _Dreamgirls_ right, plus the Etheridge number)  
Sound Mixing

**20%**  
Sound Editing (the only _Letters_ prediction I got right)
