AwardsDaily FREAKED ME OUT...they've got misinformation, I guess.

SO HAPPY ABOUT THE COTILLARD WIN AND THE BLANCHETT LOSS

Marion's got Boston and LA on her side...LA was expected, Boston was a pleasant surprise. Chicago is wide open, but I wouldn't put money down on her taking NY.

Yeah, I was soooo sad at the apparent loss (and to Christie yet again...come on). It's a sweet, sweet day which has solidified her chances at Oscar. K, I have a good feeling about NY. We'll see if they prove me right....

Sadly, NY didn't choose Marion :( but Julie

k said...

But maria, NY doesn't announce their results until tomorrow at 6:30.

Dorothy Porker said...

No worries, Maria. I think you mean the New York Online critics, which aren't (as far as reputation is concerned) even in the same league as the New York Film Critics Circle, which as K mentioned, announces tomorrow morning.

Aha! I was confused there for a while! Thanks for clearing that up!
