:yahoo:

thankfully, the favourites went and won, which was nice :D

A bit late, but this would have been my guesses:

Performance by an actor in a leading role Forest Whitaker
Performance by an actor in a supporting role Eddie Murphy
Performance by an actress in a leading role Helen Mirren
Performance by an actress in a supporting role Jennifer Hudson
Best animated feature film of the year Happy feet
Achievement in art direction POTC
Achievement in cinematography Children of men
Best documentary feature Inconvenient truth
Best motion picture of the year Babel
Achievement in directing Martin Scorcese

The favourites won, really...I'm gutted that the Departed won though, the movie STINKS

I think that David Niven has a very good chance*
