Oscar, Oscar, Oscar

The Academy Awards are Sunday night on ABC.  Oscar chatter is really picking up for those of you interested in who is going to win the big prizes.  Patrick Golstein and Joe Horn of the LA Times talk Oscar upsets, acceptance speeches and elitism in a series of podcasts.  All are worth a listen. 

Filmjerk crunches all of the numbers.  By their estimation, "The Departed" should take home top prize.  Other categories included.

The Envelope's Buzzmeter has "The Departed" ahead, but admits it's a toss-up.  Also has frontrunners for the other main categories. 

The AP critics weigh in for Best Picture and the other races.
