[WTGH]

So far, I've only heard from Helen Mirren and Forest Whitaker.

[Bree]

I don't think there's any clear front runner right now. Movies have been all over the place to have a favorite.

[darraholic]

I've been hearing alot of critics raving on Jennifer Hudson for Dreamgirls. She's supposed to steal that show with her performance.

This is just some of the reviews...

[King]

Oh god. If J.Hud gets an OSCAR nod, I will DIE, DIE, DIE of happiness. DIE.

[R!ck]

Same here Mike!

Those are great reviews and if that buzz continues, Mirren may have some competition

[SarahJoyBrownFF]

Bobby is the BEST MOVIE I have seen since The Passion of the Christ! So I'm picking that one. Also, anything about Jesus I'm pickin' too! So Keisha Castle-Hughes (THE NATIVITY STORY) would be my choice for Best Actress. I thought both Harry Belafonte, Sir Anthony Hopkins, Laurence Fishburne and...forget it! The entire CAST was incredible. I haven't cried that much at the end of a movie since, well.... since The Passion of the Christ!

[KMan101]

Go Jennifer Hudson! Girl was ROBBED on Idol 3!
