And so the awards season begins...
Admittedly, now that I've heard a TON about The King Speech, I would have picked it for some of the awards, but live and learn.
[If I picked a winner for a category, either a "my winner prediction" or a "who I want to win," then I made the heading a bolded purple, just for shiggles.]

I haven't seen any of these, nor heard of any of them, so I have no predictions/want to see winner for this category. Though I feel the Millennium trilogy got robbed here. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo was brilliant. Noomi Rapace and Michael Nyqvist got robbed as well.

Steve Carrell
- "There's also the story of King George V-I."
Jim Parsons
- "The writers, my writers, how crass."
Oh, and one last thing: INCEPTION. GOT. ROBBED.
