BEST DIRECTOR
WILL WIN: Katy & Nick say PETER JACKSON will win for LORD OF THE RINGS
SHOULD WIN: We think PETER should win too.
BEST ACTOR
WILL WIN: Katy says SEAN PENN will win for MYSTIC RIVER. Nick agrees.

BEST ACTRESS
WILL WIN: CHARLIZE THERON will win for MONSTER. Agreement again!
SHOULD WIN: Nick says NAOMI WATTS should get it for 21 GRAMS. Katy has no opinion and both of us are still wondering why Scarlett Johnansen wasn't even nominated!!
