Based on my predictions the win totals would look like this:
- Slumdog Millionaire (6)
- WALL•E (4)
- Milk (2)
- The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2)
- The Duchess (1)
- The Dark Knight (1)
- Hellboy II: The Golden Army (1)
- Man on Wire (1)
- The Reader (1)
- Vicky Cristina Barcelona (1)
- Waltz with Bashir (1)
Slumdog could easily steal three of WALL•E‘s wins and Hellboy II: The Golden Army is a bit of a risky pick and it wouldn’t surprise me to see The Dark Knight possibly pick up one extra win. Perhaps the most shocking thing is to think if Sean Penn does pull off the win in Best Actor it is likely The Wrestler will go home empty handed. Oh well, no one ever said the Oscars were perfect.
