Can you out guess Ebert?

"Do you know who'll take home Oscar®?

Outguess Roger Ebert's predictions and you could win 1 of 7 trips to Mexico. We'll also give away 10 copies of Roger Ebert's "Movie Yearbook 2005".

Outguess Ebert is not open to residents of Florida.

What better thing to do on a lazy Saturday afternoon than guess the Oscars against Ebert?

1. WHY do they always ask for best foreign film?
Seriously, how many of us do they think have actually seen any of them?

I almost picked Jamie Foxx for the twofer, but I doubt they'll do that. And I think this is the year Martin Scorses gets his "respect" Oscar.

2. Usually I would disagree with you on that one

but this year, it's like WTF? As a critic for my school's newspaper, I see my fair share of foreign films and I can't believe the ones that were nominated. The only one I've seen is "The Chorus" from France. I think that "A Very Long Engagement" was a better French movie. I thought "The Return" from Russia was a fantastic movie and it's not on the list. Maybe it wasn't selected by Russia to be the rep or maybe it came out in '03 and I just didn't get to see it until '04.
