Supporting Actor
|
PREDICTED WINNER |
 |
Morgan Freeman
"Million Dollar Baby" |
FOR HIM |
AGAINST HIM |
- Overdue actor - SAG winner - He is starring in one of the BP frontrunners |
- This award could be seen more as a make-up Oscar since it's definetely not one of his best performances. |
||
|
WHY |
|||
| As everyone I am going with Morgan Freeman but definetely something doesn't seem right. SAG's winners lineup has never matched 4/4 with the Oscars and I think Freeman might be the most vulnerable of the bunch (alongside Blanchett). He is a veteran and a legend and he has never won. He is starring in one of the BP frontrunners and it makes sense to award him this time. Though watch out for Clive Owen and Thomas Haden Church. They are big spoilers here. | |||
| WILL WIN | MORGAN FREEMAN | ||
| SHOULD WIN | CLIVE OWEN | ||
SPOILER |
 |
Clive Owen
"Closer" |
FOR HIM |
AGAINST HIM |
- The real best performance of the bunch - GG Winner - "Hit" actor of the year |
- Morgan Freeman - He was snubbed at the SAG - Lack of support for his movie |
SPOILER |
 |
Thomas Haden Church
"Sideways" |
FOR HIM |
AGAINST HIM |
- Probably the most recognized and acclaimed performance of the year - Academy might want to award him here since Sideways doesn't have many chances to hit in the major categories. |
- The support for this movie isn't as big as it seemed (Giamatti's snub) - Morgan Freeman |
HAPPY TO BE NOMINATED |
