Rethink.

(Update: I correctly predicted 15/24 categories, a 60 percent accuracy , down slightly from last year.) Best Picture   √ Correct “Black Swan” Mike Medavoy, Brian Oliver and Scott Franklin, Producers “The Fighter” David Hoberman, Todd Lieberman and Mark Wahlberg, Producers “Inception” Emma Thomas and Christopher Nolan, Producers “The Kids Are All Right” Gary Gilbert, Jeffrey Levy-Hinte and Celine Rattray, Producers “The King's Speech” Iain Canning, Emile Sherman and Gareth Unwin, Producers “127 Hours” Christian Colson, Danny Boyle and John Smithson, Producers “The Social Network” Scott Rudin, Dana Brunetti, Michael De Luca and Ceán Chaffin, Producers “Toy Story 3” Darla K.

Originally posted on The Gold Knight Blog It's time for bacchanalian party of the year: the Golden Globe Awards. Ricky Gervais is the ringleader for the second year of an evening where celebrities eat and, notably, drink — an awards show without the required gravitas. Last year Gervais was the first host in 15 years for the show by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. Here are my predictions ( marked in blue and winners highlighted ** ) for the 68th Annual Golden Globe Awards . Enjoy and feel free to leave comments. Josh Duhamel, Katie Holmes and Blair Underwood announced the noms in December . "The King's Speech" received seven nominations, "The Fighter" and "The Social Network" six.

Normally, I don't play the predictions game with the Emmys, but I was asked what shows I thought would win so here we are... There are 19 categories to be determined, split between series, specials and acting. Typically, the Academy Awards has many predictors for whom will win. With the Emmys, it's a little more up in the air. With that said, here are my official predictions for the 62nd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards (winners marked ***): SERIES, DRAMA – 60% Confidence Breaking Bad (AMC) Dexter (Showtime) The Good Wife (CBS) – Ultimate dark horse, but unlikely Lost (ABC) – Winner; last season to be nominated, spectacular show ***Mad Men (AMC) – Cast won Emmy; won last two years; I'm not a fan True Blood (HBO)

Are you in need of some help for your office Oscar pool? Well have no fear because here are my official predicitions for the 82nd Academy Awards . My average rate of success is 75% and above. And I will note each category with a percentage of confidence to give you the best shot at winning your pool. This year, let me say, could be very predictable or very unpredictable. I'm going with both. Best motion picture of the year — 50% “Avatar” (20th Century Fox) — MY MONEY'S ON "AVATAR," BUT I'M JADED; I DID NOT LIKE "HURT LOCKER" AS MUCH “The Blind Side” (Warner Bros.) “District 9” (Sony Pictures Releasing) “An Education” (Sony Pictures Classics) “The Hurt Locker” (Summit Entertainment) — ALL THE PREDICTORS ARE THERE, BUT I CANNOT PUT THIS DOWN FOR THE WIN “Inglourious Basterds” (The Weinstein Company) “Precious: Based on the Novel ‘Push’ by Sapphire” (Lionsgate) “A Serious Man” (Focus Features) “Up” (Walt Disney) “Up in the Air” (Paramount in a...

What films are going to be nominated for Best Picture? Will "Avatar" live up to director James Cameron's "Titanic" reputation? What films will be nominated in the Foreign Language category?

Tonight is the Golden Globes. Ricky Gervais is the ringleader for the bacchanalian party that has celebrities eating and, notably, drinking. The evening is an awards show without the required gravitas. It should be a fun evening, especially with host Gervais, the first in 15 years for the show by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. I thought I would take a brief moment to share my predictions (marked in red) for whom I think will be taking home the awards. Enjoy and feel free to leave comments. I've noted in blue possible dark horses and the clears losers — in my mind at least. UPDATED WITH WINNERS: As you can see I was 11 for 19 — 5/9 in the TV categories and 6/10 in the film categories.
