And the Winner Is, Part 2

It also just occurred to me that, for about the third year in a row, I will be participating in an Oscars pool without having seen a single one of the big nominated films.

The good thing is that this way, my own opinions don't get in the way of making picks. I don't have any stake. I can be totally dispassionate, and just pick based on the "buzz."

So I guess I will be voting for Brokeback Mountain in every category. Even categories in which it isn't nominated. When it wins "Best Animated Short," remember, you saw it here first.
