OSCARS 2009

Antecipando vencedores

Há dois tipos de previsões para o que vai acontecer na Cerimónia dos Oscars. Uma, é escolher, entre os nomeados, o nosso eleito. Outra é prever o que a Academia vai premiar.
Hoje vamos tentar fazer futurologia quanto à intenção de voto da Academia, deixando de lados certas categorias que, por total desconhecimento dos nomeados, não nos poderemos pronunciar.
Aqui vai o que pensamos serem os Oscars de 2009 (repete-se: não são os nossos preferidos, mas aqueles que julgamos vir a serem preferidos pela Academia).
