    Oscar Nomination Predictions: Best Actor

    Mickey Rourke in "The Wrestler"

    Mickey Rourke in "The Wrestler"

    The 2009 Oscar nominations will be announced Thursday, January 22nd, and in anticipation of the announcements, I’m presenting my personal picks for who is mostly likely going to score a nomination. How accurate am I? I don’t know- however, I’ve correctly picked the Best Picture Oscar winner in August of each year for the last 5 years (by the way, my choice for 2009- Slumdog Millionaire).

    Most Likely Best Actor Nominees:

    • Leonardo DiCaprio, Revolutionary Road
    • Frank Langella, Frost/Nixon
    • Brad Pitt, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
    • Sean Penn, Milk
    • Mickey Rourke, The Wrestler

    Possible Spoiler: Clint Eastwood, Gran Torino

    Don’t count him out: Oscar winners love Eastwood. Though Gran Torino, might not have gotten the best reviews, the movie has had serious box office success.
